Why is Bitcoin Skyrocketing? The Cryptocurrency Hits 2023 Record High
Bitcoin recently saw a big price increase. The cryptocurrency reached $35,150, making it the highest price in 2023. Experts say this jump is partly because people think a new Bitcoin ETF will soon launch in the U.S. Right now, the price of Bitcoin is $34,702, up 13.38% in just one day, according to data from CoinMarketCap.
Since the start of this year, Bitcoin's value has nearly doubled. However, it's still much lower than its all-time high. That was $69,000 back in 2021. People are hopeful that a U.S.-based Bitcoin ETF could bring a lot of money into the market. NYDIG, a finance company, thinks it could be as much as $150 billion.
Lucas Josa, a market analyst, adds more information. He works for Mynt, which is part of BTG Pactual, a financial services company. Josa says the price went above $32,000 when news came out about a possible ETF from BlackRock. BlackRock is a big deal because it's the world's largest manager of assets like stocks and bonds.
