Bitcoin value drops 10% as market braces for volatility ahead of halving event

Arthur Hayes, a noted figure in the cryptocurrency space, had earlier forecasted a potential drop in Bitcoin’s price, attributing it to changing policies by the Federal Reserve. Despite the current downturn, Hayes remains optimistic about Bitcoin’s future, expecting a recovery following the initial impact of the Fed’s policy shifts.

In addition to market movements, there are strategic shifts occurring within the investment landscape of cryptocurrencies. BlackRock (NYSE:BLK), the world’s largest asset manager, is actively seeking approval from the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to launch a spot Bitcoin Exchange-Traded Fund (ETF).

This move by BlackRock is seen as a significant step towards mainstream financial adoption of cryptocurrencies, signaling a growing interest from institutional investors in digital assets.
