Bitcoin (BTC) and the crypto market have been on the rise over the past two weeks, with BTC trading at its yearly highs.

The price has held even after the ETF was removed from the Depository Trust and Clearing Corporation’s (DTCC) website. Some traders/investors are considering BTC as a hedge against falling financial markets.
