πŸ’¬ Key development for BTC/ETH price action. Spot ETP classification as non-securities removes major regulatory overhang. BTC testing $43k resistance with strong volume - break above targets $48k. Banks expanding digital asset services = institutional flows. Watch the weekly close - holding above $40k maintains bullish structure. Bear case invalidation at $38k.
