 MARKET UPDATE=20

Bitcoin volatility hits six-year lows, BTC ETFs approach decision deadlines

All summer now, crypto prices have held remarkably steady =E2=80=94 with bi=
tcoin=20
volatility dropping to a six-year low in July,according to ARK Invest=20
<https://ark-invest.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/The-Bitcoin-Monthly-July=
-2023.pdf>
. But as fears of a deep recession begin torecede=20
<https://www.nytimes.com/2023/07/19/business/economy/economy-soft-landing.h=
tml>
, inflation continues to cool, and Wall Street continues to pursue new cryp=
to=20
ambitions, what could the next market catalyst look like? Let=E2=80=99s tak=
e a look at=20
some possibilities.

As inflation cools, Bank of America reversed its recession prediction.

This Thursday, the latest Consumer Price Index <https://www.bls.gov/cpi/>=
=20
(CPI) report =E2=80=94 a key inflation metric that measures the prices Amer=
icans pay=20
for a wide range of goods and services =E2=80=94 isexpected to show=20
<https://www.coindesk.com/markets/2023/08/07/cpi-preview-bitcoin-unlikely-t=
o-get-bullish-catalyst/>
 that prices ticked up very slightly, largely as a result of highergas pric=
es=20
<https://www.nytimes.com/2023/07/12/business/economy/inflation-economy-fed-=
rates.html>
. Many analysts are now predicting that the Federal Reserve will pause=20
interest-rate hikes in September, after raising rates 11 times between Marc=
h=20
2022 and this June.

Per CoinDesk, =E2=80=9CTo the extent that Fed tightening helped bring along=
 bitcoin's=20
price crash, the slowing and perhaps end of that tightening has been seen a=
s a=20
factor in bitcoin's modest recovery.=E2=80=9D

Additionally, Bank of America has joined the Federal Reserve in predicting =
a =E2=80=9C
soft landing=20
<https://fortune.com/2023/08/02/recession-forecast-bank-of-america-soft-lan=
ding-economy-chief-economist/>
=E2=80=9D for the economy, meaning a recession could be avoided while the e=
conomy=20
continues to see growth. BoA is the first major bank to pull their recessio=
n=20
forecast, citing the declining inflation numbers and slowing wage growth.

SEC decisions on bitcoin ETFs are on the horizon.

In June, crypto prices got a boost following a slew of news=20
<https://www.coinbase.com/bytes/archive/bitcoin-rallies-on-wall-streets-cry=
pto-moves>
 around Wall Street=E2=80=99s crypto initiatives. The biggest headlines wer=
e about a=20
number of Wall Street=E2=80=99s biggest players =E2=80=94 including asset-m=
anagement giant=20
BlackRock =E2=80=94 pursuing SEC approval of a =E2=80=9Cspot=E2=80=9D BTC E=
TF (which would buy bitcoin=20
and sell shares to the public via conventional brokerages).

For years now, the SEC has denied such applications, but given BlackRock=E2=

 to ARK Invest=E2=80=99s filing by Sunday, and will hit deadlines for other=

One potentially positive sign could be the SEC=E2=80=99s June approval=20
<https://decrypt.co/145996/sec-approves-first-leveraged-bitcoin-futures-etf=
> of=20
BITX=E2=80=99s leveraged bitcoin futures ETF, which is a fund that uses lev=

>=20
for several years.) Also in the approval pipeline are around a dozen=20
applications forEthereum futures=20
<https://blockworks.co/news/valkyrie-eth-futures-etf> ETFs.=20

So, just how likely is the SEC to approve a spot BTC ETF? Bloomberg=20
Intelligence currentlyputs the odds=20
<https://www.coindesk.com/markets/2023/08/02/bloomberg-etf-analysts-raise-c=

 at 65% (up from 50%).

The bottom line=E2=80=A6=20

Despite months of declining trading volumes and low volatility, activity=20
around crypto markets has continued bubbling. And while it=E2=80=99s too so=
