Fink’s suggestion that Bitcoin’s value equals human freedom shows his confidence and bullishness about Bitcoin in the future. The comment came after the SEC recently began constructive discussions with Bitcoin ETF issuers on several aspects for considering approving Bitcoin ETF.

Bloomberg’s analysts Eric Balchunas and Seyffart increased the odds of a spot Bitcoin ETF approval to 90%. The Grayscale ruling has become an important precedent for the approval of a spot Bitcoin ETF. Bloomberg analysts, as well as executives Mike Novogratz and Cathie Wood, believe Bitcoin ETF will come this year. JPMorgan’s report on the chances of a Bitcoin ETF approval by the SEC this year sparked bullish sentiment in the global crypto market.
