The massive day for BlackRock’s fund came on the same day that a roster of spot Ether ( ETH ) ETFs was approved for trading in the US.

Industry analysts expect spot Ether ETFs to generate 10% to 20% of the flows that spot Bitcoin ETFs have been generating following their launch in January.

Meanwhile, several analysts who spoke to Cointelegraph on July 21 are bullish on Bitcoin in the short to mid-term, citing Biden’s last-minute dropout from the presidential race and Trump’s heightened odds of an election victory as strong upside catalysts for the price of Bitcoin.

10x Research founder Markus Thielen speculated there was a solid chance Republican nominee Donald Trump could make a surprise announcement that he would make Bitcoin a strategic reserve asset at the upcoming Bitcoin 2024 conference in Nashville on July 25.

Thielen said this could trigger a “parabolic” move for the price of Bitcoin in the coming weeks.

Bryan Courchesne, the founder of crypto asset management firm DAIM echoed this prediction on July 22, saying there was a good possibility of Trump enshrining BTC as a strategic reserve asset at the conference.
