Bitcoin Surpasses $111,000 as Market Optimism Rises Ahead of US CPI Report Devamını Oku
Bitcoin’s remarkable rally showed no signs of slowing on Monday, as the world’s largest cryptocurrency surged past $115,500 (approximately Rs. 1.01 crore). The renewed momentum comes amid growing optimism in global financial markets, driven by easing geopolitical tensions and mounting expectations that the US Federal Reserve could soon announce an interest rate cut. The improved macroeconomic outlook, coupled with softer inflation data, has prompted a wave of fresh buying across the digital asset space. According to CoinMarketCap, Bitcoin climbed 3.5 percent in the past 24 hours, while Ethereum (ETH) jumped 7.1 percent, reaching around $4,200 (roughly Rs. 3.7 lakh).
The upbeat sentiment has also rippled through the broader crypto market, with altcoins continuing their bullish momentum. Binance Coin (BNB) traded near $1,151 (around Rs. 1.01 lakh), while XRP remained steady at $2.65 (roughly Rs. 233). Solana (SOL) extended its impressive gains, climbing to $204.53 (about Rs. 18,010), and Dogecoin (DOGE) rose more than 6 percent to $0.21 (roughly Rs. 18.48). The synchronized rally across major tokens highlights a return of investor confidence after months of uncertainty and cautious trading.
Market analysts suggest that the recent upswing could mark a shift toward a more sustained bullish phase for cryptocurrencies, especially if the Federal Reserve confirms a dovish stance in its upcoming policy decision. The easing of US-China trade tensions and stable macro indicators have created a favorable environment for risk assets, including Bitcoin. Experts also point to increasing institutional activity, as traditional investors seek digital exposure amid declining yields in conventional markets.
According to market trackers, the global cryptocurrency market capitalization rose 3.82 percent in the last 24 hours, reaching $3.91 trillion (roughly Rs. 3,43,00,00,000 crore). The Crypto Fear and Greed Index also climbed to 42, moving out of the “fear” zone and signaling a more balanced investor outlook. While short-term volatility remains likely, many analysts believe Bitcoin could continue testing new highs if macroeconomic conditions remain supportive and liquidity in the market stays strong.
Asset managers are rushing to launch cryptocurrency exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in the United States after regulators streamlined the approval process, potentially ushering in a wave of new products tied to digital assets.
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) announced updated standards for ETFs last week, a move expected to encourage demand for funds linked not just to bitcoin and ethereum but also to cryptocurrencies such as solana, XRP, and even dogecoin.
Bitcoin and ethereum ETFs were launched in 2024 under stricter rules, but the new standards lower barriers for issuers. Currently, 21 ETFs in the U.S. hold bitcoin, ethereum, or both, with dozens of new filings pending for funds tied to other coins. Analysts expect the first products under the new rules—likely ETFs tied to solana and XRP—to launch in early October.
“We’ve got about a dozen filings with the SEC now, and more coming,” said Steven McClurg, founder of Canary Capital Group. “We’re all getting ready for a wave of launches.”
The SEC’s changes eliminate the need for case-by-case reviews of each ETF application. Instead, any fund meeting preset standards can move forward automatically. Approval timelines are expected to shrink to 75 days or less, compared with up to 270 days previously.
Industry insiders say the fourth quarter of 2025 could be a breakout period for crypto ETF issuers. Grayscale Investments has already converted its private fund into a public ETF, the Grayscale CoinDesk Crypto 5, holding bitcoin, ethereum, XRP, solana, and cardano.
To qualify for approval, ETFs must meet at least one of three main criteria: the underlying cryptocurrency must either trade on a regulated market, have U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission-regulated futures contracts with at least six months of trading history, or already be tied to another ETF with at least 40% direct exposure to the coin.
However, questions remain about investor appetite for funds tied to lesser-known tokens. “There will be a flood of tokens that many folks have never heard of, and instead of years as with bitcoin, there will be weeks or months to provide that education,” said Kyle DaCruz of asset manager VanEck.
