# Strong Reasons to Be Optimistic About Crypto in Late 2024
Written on
Chapter 1: The Current Crypto Landscape
The year 2024 has shown promise for the cryptocurrency market, though it hasn't yet fully realized the anticipated Bull Run. Early in the year, we identified three pivotal events that could propel the industry forward. So far, two of these events have come to fruition: Blackrock's significant move into Bitcoin ETFs and the much-anticipated Bitcoin Halvening in April.
These milestones have had a pronounced impact on Bitcoin, which reached an all-time high exceeding $73,800 and remains strong in the $69,000 range. However, altcoins have not yet experienced a similar surge, but that situation may soon change.
In the video "LAST CHANCE - 6 Reasons to Be Extremely Bullish About Crypto & Altcoins in 2024," experts discuss the future of crypto, highlighting key factors that could influence market dynamics.
Section 1.1: Anticipating Federal Reserve Actions
We expect that the Federal Reserve will eventually reduce interest rates this year. Initially, this was thought to happen in the first half of 2024, but persistent high inflation has delayed this action. Currently, the Fed is monitoring inflation, aiming for it to approach the 2% target. With early indicators suggesting economic softness, there are increasing calls for intervention. As it stands, interest rates are at their highest in 23 years, and any easing here could ignite a significant upswing in the crypto market. Many experts predict a rate cut by July, which would be beneficial for the overall industry.
Section 1.2: The Arrival of Ethereum ETFs
Another catalyst for altcoin price increases is the anticipated approval of Ethereum ETFs. The wave of Bitcoin ETFs, led by Blackrock, has demonstrated that major financial entities are beginning to take cryptocurrencies seriously. Given the demand that has driven Bitcoin prices up, there are expectations that Ethereum will also see a notable price surge.
Recently, the SEC has instructed potential ETF issuers to prepare their amended S-1 forms, indicating that trading on these investment vehicles could potentially commence in June or early July. If Ethereum ETFs gain traction, we might witness an influx of more innovative crypto ETF offerings by year's end, further boosting institutional interest and, consequently, prices.
Chapter 2: Political Climate and Crypto
The upcoming 2024 Presidential Election is also likely to spotlight cryptocurrency as a significant topic. Both candidates will likely address crypto, with Donald Trump showing newfound support for digital assets. Recently, he stated on Truth Social, "I am very positive and open-minded to cryptocurrency companies, and all things related to this new and burgeoning industry."
In response, President Biden's campaign has begun engaging with key players in the crypto sector to shape more favorable policies. This shift in approach indicates a growing acceptance of crypto by the current administration, which could foster industry growth as we head further into 2024.
In the video "Top 10 Reasons I'm BULLISH AF Right Now!!!," insights are shared on why now is an opportune time for investors in the crypto space.
Section 2.1: The Halvening Phenomenon
Historically, Bitcoin Halvenings have been followed by bullish market conditions for about 18 months. After the 2016 Halvening, prices soared by 300% over 17 months, and in 2020, they increased nearly 600% in a similar period. Although Bitcoin has seen a slight decline since the 2024 Halvening, historical trends suggest a potential rally is on the horizon for investors.
How to Capitalize on This Opportunity
With such positive developments on the horizon, now is an excellent time to consider investing in promising projects. Although several fundamentally strong altcoins have seen growth in 2024, it appears that even greater opportunities lie ahead.
Here are my current top 10 holdings:

- Alkimi — $ADS
- Arbius — $AIUS

- Constellation — $DAG

Regardless of your choice of cryptocurrencies, ensure you conduct thorough research and keep your assets secure. Patience will be key; those who resist the urge to sell prematurely may find themselves rewarded as prices climb towards potential all-time highs in 2025.
