Bitcoin tapped a daily high on Monday reaching $57,678 per unit, jumping 4.4% in the last 24 hours. <\/strong><\/p>\n<h2>Bitcoin Outperforms the Pack as Speculators Assume ETF Approval Is Coming<\/h2>\n<p>It seems crypto investors are more attracted to bitcoin (<a class=\"lar-automated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/markets.bitcoin.com\/crypto\/BTC\">BTC<\/a>) in recent times as the crypto asset has been outperforming most of the top digital currencies in the last few days. On Monday, <a class=\"lar-automated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/markets.bitcoin.com\/crypto\/BTC\">BTC<\/a> has jumped 4.4% in value and <a class=\"lar-automated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/markets.bitcoin.com\/crypto\/BTC\">BTC<\/a> is the 14th-biggest seven-day gainer out of 10,000+ crypto-assets in existence.<\/p>\n<p>Much of the price increase has been <a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/bitcoin-etf-approval-expected-by-months-end-prominent-hedge-fund-puts-more-weight-behind-btc\/\">attributed<\/a> to the possibility that the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) will approve a bitcoin exchange-traded fund by the month\u2019s end. While many investors see a bitcoin ETF approval as being positive, others have shared <a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/pantera-ceo-wants-reminder-day-before-us-bitcoin-etf-launches-i-might-want-to-take-some-chips-off-table\/\">contrasting opinions<\/a> about the subject in recent times.<\/p>\n<p>Bitcoin (<a class=\"lar-automated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/markets.bitcoin.com\/crypto\/BTC\">BTC<\/a>) has gained 19.3% during the last week and year-to-date, <a class=\"lar-automated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/markets.bitcoin.com\/crypto\/BTC\">BTC<\/a> is up 410.3%. The price push has increased <a class=\"lar-automated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/markets.bitcoin.com\/crypto\/BTC\">BTC<\/a> dominance as the metric has tapped 44.4% on Monday, while ethereum\u2019s (<a class=\"lar-automated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/markets.bitcoin.com\/crypto\/ETH\">ETH<\/a>) market cap is 17.3%. With current prices above the $57K range, <a class=\"lar-automated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/markets.bitcoin.com\/crypto\/BTC\">BTC<\/a>\u2019s market valuation is approximately $1,085,971,255,172, or just over $1 trillion.<\/p>\n<p>Tim Frost, CEO of digital wealth management platform Yield App told Bitcoin.com News in an investor\u2019s note that bitcoin is \u201cset to test all-time highs and break into six-figures.\u201d Frost spoke about the possibility of a bitcoin futures ETF getting approval and the recent approval of Volt Equity\u2019s long, indirect exposure ETF.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnalysts are predicting a potential cool off, with bitcoin potentially falling to the $40,000 support level before continuing on the upwards trajectory to test the previous all-time high of $65,000,\u201d Frost explained on Monday. He continued:<\/p>\n<p>A break of this level, in line with the stock to flow model, would likely see Bitcoin soar into the six-figure region and beyond toward the end of 2021 \u2013 a tantalizing prospect for investors hungry for that promised $100k level. Then, the approval of a Bitcoin futures ETF in the US would no doubt add rocket fuel to this already astronomical price target.<\/p>\n<h2>US Dollar, Yen, Euro, Australian Dollar Bitcoin Pairs Swell<\/h2>\n<p>Meanwhile, the dominant pair with <a class=\"lar-automated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/markets.bitcoin.com\/crypto\/BTC\">BTC<\/a> today is still tether (<a class=\"lar-automated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/markets.bitcoin.com\/crypto\/USDT\">USDT<\/a>) as the stablecoin captures 60.35% of all <a class=\"lar-automated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/markets.bitcoin.com\/crypto\/BTC\">BTC<\/a> trades on October 11. Tether is followed by USD (13.01%), BUSD (5.00%), JPY (4.07%), EUR (3.27%), and AUD (2.12%). Typically, when these three fiat currencies (JPY, EUR, AUD) have entered the top spots, markets are definitely more bullish.<\/p>\n<p>It is clear that other digital assets besides <a class=\"lar-automated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/markets.bitcoin.com\/crypto\/BTC\">BTC<\/a> are not seeing the lifts they usually would see when bitcoin spikes to higher levels. Most alternative crypto assets are seeing mediocre advances while <a class=\"lar-automated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/markets.bitcoin.com\/crypto\/BTC\">BTC<\/a> continues to outperform, holding on to its double-digit gains.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>What do you think about bitcoin\u2019s recent gains outperforming the pack of competitors?
