The U.S. Bitcoin ETF approvals have opened floodgates for institutional adoption, with BlackRock’s IBIT holding over 200K BTC. Retail interest is surging too—Coinbase app downloads spiked 300% post-ETF. But this is just Phase 1: expect regulatory clarity and state-level crypto policies (e.g., Texas mining incentives) to fuel the next rally.
For beginners, dollar-cost averaging (DCA) into BTC via Binance Spot ($10 minimum) minimizes volatility risks. Long-term holders should watch the $60K support level; a break above $72K could signal a new ATH.
