Predictions and regulatory actions frequently have a significant influence on market dynamics in the bitcoin space. Prominent member of the bitcoin community Haseeb Quraishi has made a prediction about US President Biden's position on cryptocurrencies in the run-up to the 2024 election. Quraishi expressed what many in the sector saw to be Biden's potential shift to a more forgiving stance. With the recent approval of a Bitcoin ETF, which was seen as a possible sign of changing regulatory attitudes, this prediction received more traction.

The approval of the Bitcoin ETF caused the price of Bitcoin to increase by 6.5%, indicating investor optimism. Major cryptocurrencies like XRP and Ethereum are currently awaiting a vote in Washington that may have a significant impact on the US cryptocurrency market. Particularly Ethereum had a significant price increase that was indicative of increased speculative interest in potential regulatory events.

The issue has also been raised by billionaire investor Mark Cuban, who cautioned President Biden about the possible repercussions of strict cryptocurrency regulation. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is in the spotlight as US lawmakers get ready for the vote; they have asked for changes to Form 19b-4 filings for Ethereum ETFs that are available for purchase. Industry insiders are optimistic about this request, and analysts have revised upward their estimations of the possibility of SEC approval. After the SEC approved spot Bitcoin ETFs earlier, Bloomberg ETF analysts now feel there is a high probability they will approve a spot Ether ETF.
