Bitcoin Crosses The $40K Threshold — Ethereum, Dogecoin Spike Too: FUD, FOMO To Dictate Whether $50K Arrives 'Sooner Rather Than Later,' Says Market Intelligence Platform
Portfolio Pulse from Shivdeep Dhaliwal
Bitcoin surpassed the $40,000 mark, with Ethereum and Dogecoin also experiencing price increases. The global cryptocurrency market cap rose to $1.51 trillion. The rally is partly attributed to expectations of a Bitcoin Spot ETF approval by the SEC. Gold prices reached a record high, but Bitcoin's rise was not seen as impressive by gold bull Peter Schiff. Analyst Michaël van de Poppe and market intelligence platform Santiment suggest that FUD and FOMO related to the ETF could influence whether Bitcoin reaches $50K soon.
