Over the past month, Bitcoin’s price has risen by about 60%, and its capitalization has exceeded $1.34 trillion. The rise in the cryptocurrency rate is explained by a significant influx of capital into American ETFs investing directly in BTC. According to the latest data, spot Bitcoin ETF cumulative trading volume crosses $100 billion.

Another growth factor is the halving, which is expected in April. After that, the mining reward of Bitcoin will be split in half.
