It’s been the craziest week crypto has had in a long time. And that’s saying quite a bit.

After months of heightened anticipation, the cryptocurrency community entered this week expecting to finally deliver its first approved product after years of waiting. Bitcoin ETF Spot In the history of Wall Street.

Then, a day before analysts predicted a verdict would be reached, a post on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (SEC) Twitter account announced that all pending Bitcoin ETF applications on its desk had been approved.

Crypto Twitter exploded with jubilant euphoria. BTC has started pumping. Then, less than 10 minutes later, SEC Chairman Gary Gensler posted a tweet claiming the agency’s account had been hacked.

Joy quickly turned to sadness. BTC’s gains immediately soured as the cryptocurrency began to fall. rush. Cryptocurrency users were shocked.

Twitter users oscillated between mocking the incident and worrying that it could negatively impact the Bitcoin ETF filing scene before the SEC.

Just 24 hours later, denizens of cryptocurrency Twitter, primed to analyze breaking news more carefully, began hearing rumors that a spot Bitcoin ETF had indeed been approved, and this time the actual evidence was listed on the SEC’s website.

However, moments later, the SEC website crashed, causing confusion once again and leaving many people panicking.

Unfortunately, I was relieved when the news was confirmed just a few minutes later. historical actionThe SEC actually approved 10 spot Bitcoin ETFs, permanently changing the relationship between cryptocurrencies and traditional finance and the U.S. economy.

The celebration continued into Thursday, with competing ETFs debuting on impressively high trading volumes.
