Following the announcement, Bitcoin’s price increased around 1% and break over $85,000, according to CoinMarketCap.

Alongside the price surge, bitcoin’s 24-hour trading volume decreased 28.81% to $13.41 billion. This reflects strong trader activity and growing confidence in institutional support for Bitcoin.
