The SEC has set a deadline for spot ETF applicants to submit amended S-1 forms by Monday, January 8, as the final step before potential approval. Key companies, including BlackRock, WisdomTree, Fidelity, Invesco, Ark Invest/21Shares, VanEck, and Valkyrie, have made the necessary filings. Sponsor fees disclosed in these filings reveal BlackRock at 0.3%, VanEck at 0.25%, and WisdomTree at the highest with 0.5%.
Bitcoin's recent surge above $45,000, driven by a clear ascending triangle breakout, signals optimism for a push toward $50,000. Technical indicators, such as the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD), support a bullish outlook, suggesting potential for further gains.
Traders are closely monitoring key support levels, including the 20 Exponential Moving Average (EMA) at $44,067, the 50 EMA at $43,780, and the 200 EMA at $42,464. While a trend correction is possible, the imminent spot ETF approval introduces optimism and minimizes the likelihood of significant corrections, providing a positive backdrop for Bitcoin's price trajectory.
