Bitcoin On The Brink: Should You Buy Now Or Wait For A Possible Correction?
Portfolio Pulse from Murtuza Merchant
Bitcoin (BTC) has seen a significant price increase, reaching $59,053, and is on track for its largest monthly gain since October 2021. This surge is driven by the excitement over the introduction of spot Bitcoin ETFs in the U.S. and the anticipation of Bitcoin's next halving event in April. The Grayscale ETF GBTC experienced a net outflow, while BlackRock's ETF IBIT saw a record single-day net inflow. Other cryptocurrencies like Ethereum (ETH), Solana (SOL), and Ripple (XRP) also saw value increases. Market sentiment is extremely optimistic, but there's a growing concern over a potential market correction.
