Boosted by sentiment about the approval of the U.S. spot Bitcoin ETF, Bitcoin exceeded $47,000 during Monday’s U.S. stock trading session, hitting a nearly 20-month high. The last time BTC traded above $46,000 was in April 2022.
Crypto-related stocks also rose in response. Coinbase edged up nearly 2%, Iris Energy and Marathon Digital gained more than 7%, Riot Platforms gained 6% and CleanSpark gained 5%.
The SEC may approve or reject the ETF on Wednesday, and industry experts widely expect the agency to approve all applications at the same time to level the playing field.
