Decoding Bitcoin Cash’s 240% Growth in June 2023

Bitcoin Cash's 240% growth can be attributed to its listing at EDX Markets and Blackrock's ETF.

In June 2023, Bitcoin Cash grew from $95.78 to $228.25 marking one of the highest growth rates this month. The 240% growth can be attributed to its listing at EDX Markets, an exchange backed by financial giants such as Fidelity, Schwab and Citadel Securities.

Another possible reason is the announcement of Blackrock’s ETF which resulted in a rally in broad crypto markets.

The opening price for the month was around $112 from where the cryptocurrency took a dive till it reached its month low of $95.

The upward journey started last week on June 20 from where it reached $228.25, today on 27 June.

The cause behind this high growth seems its listing on EDX Markets which only has four cryptocurrencies listed on it among which Bitcoin Cash is one.
