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.
