Following a mild pullback across the altcoin market, there has been a rebound in some of the recently strong names, with $STX notably up 17% over the past 24 hours. $INJ has also seen a significant rise, up 14%, and $SOL has recouped a considerable portion of its recent decline, increasing by 7%. In traditional markets, there's been a decrease in rates after the sharp rise at the start of the year. The DXY is on a downward trend, approaching 102, while major equity indices, particularly tech stocks, are advancing. Beyond the potential ETF approval, key focuses for this week include gaining more clarity on the timeline between 19b-4 approval and launch, and observing how markets respond to this timeline. Concurrently, the first CPI release of the year, due on Thursday, could influence the market's current expectations of rate cuts.This morning, spot Bitcoin ETF issuers filed their revised S-

CRYPTO MARKET UPDATE DESPITE BEING THE LAUNCH DAY FOR ETH 2.43% ETFS, CRYPTO BROADLY MOVED LOWER IN THE EARLY MORNING HOURS TODAY, POSSIBLY DUE TO MOVEMENT OUT OF THE MT. GOX TRUSTEE WALLETS. Mt. Gox sent approximately $130 million in BTC 2.56% to Bitstamp, leaving about 90k BTC 2.56% remaining in the trustee wallets. This move lower was likely also influenced by a rise in the DXY. Currently, BTC 2.56% is trading around $66.5k,...
