Basically, ETFs added rocket fuel. Without them, Bitcoin would likely be 20–30% lower today.
The green line shows what really happened to Bitcoin's price slow rise at first, then a big jump after ETFs were approved in Jan 2024.
That’s when Wall Street money started flowing in, pushing $BTC up fast.
The red dashed line shows what might’ve happened without ETFs slower, more natural growth, probably topping out around $50K instead of $73K
