The main stakeholders include Bitcoin developers and institutional players. Bitcoin’s ascent is primarily due to ETF approvals, yet major leaders have not formally commented. Eric Balchunas, Senior ETF Analyst, Bloomberg, stated, “Rock’sShares Bitcoin (IB) ETF has become the fifth-largest-traded ETF in terms of inflows this year, attracting nearly $9 billion from investors.”

The event impacts BTC most directly, with potential spillover to altcoins like Ethereum. The market perceives Bitcoin as a hedge against inflation.
ETF analysts highlight the significance of institutional flows; however, crypto and government leaders largely remain silent on this ranking change.
