The US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) approved spot Bitcoin ETFs in the country in January.This product opened the door for more investors to engage in Bitcoin, increasing the token's adoption and trade volumes.

Bitcoin climbed into the $60,000 region last week and continued the bullish stance until it crossed $63,000 on Sunday. Many people within the crypto industry have reacted to the impressive Bitcoin's performance.

According to the CEO of Mudrex, Edul Patel, Bitcoin could overcome the $67,000 resistance threshold to a higher price mark.

Bitcoin traded above the $63,000 mark over the weekend. The upswing in price is attributed to the growing mainstream adoption of spot Bitcoin ETFs and the approaching Bitcoin Halving event.
