Will it take the wind out of the ETF approval announcement when it happens?
No
I'd also say no. Approvals are usually bullish for price until product launch date, while the launches themselves have always been bearish.
Look at the recent Futures/ETF based launches in Bitcoin's history:
December 2017 CME/CBOE Futures: -83%
September 2019 Bakkt Futures: -60%
October 2021: ProShares ETF -75%
November 2021: VanEck ETF -75%
Sure these ETF applications are different, as it's based on spot ETFs, but I'm not convinced that "this time will be different". At best we only see a 50% correction when price is around $50K-$60K compared to -60% to -80%, as an approval could push prices much higher in the meantime. That would also fit the current cycle with a bear market rally relief rally followed by final pre-halving correction scenario.
Remember the CME/CBOE approvals in August 2017 around $5K? Price went up 4x from there until launch date. So 2x from here doesn't seem out the question.
It's just another buy the rumour sell the news event imo, not much else in the immediate term. Ofc long-term, sure, it's bullish. No arguments there.
You answered a question dragonvslinux, but it was not the question that OgNasty was asking.. because if you look at the context of the question, the "it" of the question refers to a kind of hypothetical if the MTGOX coins were to be released and also the ETF were to be approved, then would the fact the MTGOX coin relief (presumed to be DOWNwardly pressuring BTC prices) and the spot ETF approval (presumptively UPpity pressuring prices), so the question is about whether MTGOX release would end up neutralizing the UPpity effect of a spot ETF approval.
You talked about various historical bitcoin future ETFs (financial products) but you did not even mention the potential MTGOX release of coins situation in such a spot bitcoin ETF approval context.
Everyone yesterday after the news of the win og greyscale against SEC, was very euphorical, and its ok, but after a day i can say, its not looking so good for us in term of price in the short run.
If after such an important win we only recover a 5% and we start very fast to return into the 27k price and lower, its not a good sign for the short term, i can see us again in the 26/25k for a "long" time like until the end of the year.
The only thing that can cahnge that for me its another new more for the ETF market aprobation or something related.
You can see it, but does your sight have any meaning, beyond fantasizing?
Welcome to my ignore spammer.
TRY READING THE FUCKING THREAD BEFORE POSTING YOUR TWATTER SHITLINKS.
Apologies I'm editing
in a secThanks for letting me know.
yeah sure
Well, he did edit.. but apparently to make the twitter link
better? smh.. you can't make this stuff up.
Ah, it's the old A. D. C. court trick. Missed it by that much!
Are you saying that I should send another smerit to that post for the extra efforts that were carried out by
this attentive and request fulfilling poster of such relevant/substantive cornz content?
Apologies I'm editing in a sec
Thanks for letting me know.
The problem is not in the form in which you draw up a link to the source of this picture. The problem is that this topic has been actively discussed over the past few pages and more meaningfully. If you read the thread, you would know...
Thanks, Yes later went back to previous threads and realized it was already being discussed and that's my bad.
So go back and delete it which would take away the merit jjg gave you
at least I think it would.Deleting a post does not take away the merits that the member had received for such post (and I see ibminer already mentioned this). The merit list (descriptions) for that member would just show the post in which the merit had been received as a deleted post.
But deleting posts may end up reducing someone's forum rank based on loss of activity points... depending on how many post are deleted.. you can ask some famous WO member(s) in regards to their having had gone on a post deleting spree.
