The approval of the ETF is a milestone for the Bitcoin market, as it could open up new opportunities for investment and growth. Many are hopeful that this approval will increase mainstream adoption and increase the value of Bitcoin. With ETF approval, Bitcoin is now more accessible to a wider range of investors, which could potentially increase demand and price. While the ETF approval is a positive development, the cryptocurrency market is still volatile and unpredictable. Overall, ETFs have not been approved for long, now we will have to watch for some time to see which way Bitcoin and the cryptocurrency market as a whole will go. But I am optimistic about the future of Bitcoin.

Perhaps it was true and officially approved but unfortunately, the impact is not overwhelming as people are still confused about the announcement due to hacking incidents. The slow response is likely what we experience but who knows in the coming days, some individuals may be just waiting for some clarifications.  Or maybe, we just assume that this (pump) would happen and it fails. I'd rather think that halving is more influential than this.
Anyways, let us see what will happen the next couple of day otherwise, the majority are wrong.

I feel like a couple of topics are confused in your post.

It is not about wanting or not wanting ETF. It is about being clear about what it really is. What I've seen so far is a growing false consensus that Bitcoin's growth is only possible if ETF is approved!!! Obviously that is completely wrong. Bitcoin never needed some centralized crap to grow and be adopted by more people.
It should also be emphasized that when people put their hard earned money into ETF they DO NOT own any Bitcoin, they are just involved in a centralized crap.

Other than that, ETF is like CEX. We know it is crap but we don't care about it existing or not, we should only help others understand the true nature of what they're getting into.

A few days ago I posted that very soon this ETF will go a little way and bring about the beautiful days of Bitcoin.  Many did not believe then.  Looked at it with disdain.  But my words are true, Bitcoin ETF has been approved and the price of Bitcoin has now become 47 thousand plus.  Now we can expect Bitcoin to pump big again in 2022 and break all its price records.  I have given the link of my previous post below.

Now that the ETFs have approval, which one are we piling into? Has anyone done a comparison of the fees and holdings? I’m sure I’m not the only one who wouldn’t mind getting some sweet sweet crypto gains in a Roth retirement account.

I guess bitcoin etf approval prior to bitcoin halving is pretty bullish. I remember when beforr halving market experience a huge dump beforr totally fly and now it will probably change and continously pump until halving and eventually go for the bull run season. I might be wrong but this news is really a hype around the market.

Op revisit your link and drop the correct link. Though this is a good news to everyone here who are investing in Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies at large. We thank God for this wonderful news. Even the article I read is predicting that ETF will boost Bitcoin to climb $50 billions to $100 billions US dollar. And now everyone in the ecosystem is happy to hear the news but will Bitcoin come down again for the poor to buy again? That should be an another question to answer. Because as it is now the rich people in the world will visit Bitcoin and invest heavily that will make Bitcoin to forget the poor. In 2022 Bitcoin price was on $16,000 and the way I am looking this matter right now, I don't think the price of Bitcoin will come down again though I don't know what will happen in the future but my fear here is that the rich people might not allow the price to come down again. Let see what will happen in the future if Bitcoin.

It's weird that the price hasn't pumped at all ever since this huge announcement, but I am just glad that it's still hovering in the high $40K range implying that BTC continues behaving like a stablecoin now and then.

The upcoming halving event in April should help it soar a lot higher hopefully. Let's see what happens.

By "we", I very much doubt that's going to be a particularly large collective around here.  

Using myself as an example:

a) I'm not a yank
b) I can't be arsed speaking to a broker
c) I'd rather hold actual BTC and not these IOUs that supposedly represent BTC

And I suspect many others here will be in a similar position.  Each to their own, though.  

It is official that the Bitcoin spot ETF has been approved by the SEC.
Market conditions after this agreement cannot mean that the price of Bitcoin will immediately increase drastically like the price of $44k to $70k. The market reaction will be different after there is the latest news, whether positive or negative news.
Waiting for how the market will look in the future after the SEC approves is the right action and we continue to do what we usually do to own Bitcoin with the usual methods. Even if necessary, increase it further.
