The Ethereum ETF uplifts sentiment in the cryptocurrency market.

QCP Capital, a trading firm, expressed optimism that the current market conditions will remain good for Bitcoin and altcoins.

In its most recent market report to Telegram channel members, it contended that opening spot Ether ET$3,782 exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in the US would be advantageous for the cryptocurrency space overall.

This month, we anticipate seeing the historic event.

The market will likely be optimistic while waiting for the ETH spot ETF to generate fresh demand. The report stated that ETH volumes are still trading 15% higher than BTC volumes, so the options market undoubtedly reflects this.

“Another reason for persistent bullishness is speculators increasing long positions in other crypto majors in anticipation of additional spot ETF approvals in the near future.”

ETH/USD opened at $3,849, new all-time highs for the month.
