#Breaking: #bitcoin lost ground from yesterday’s high of $35,000, quickly falling by 3% to $33,400 after the @BlackRock #ETF ticker was removed from @The_DTCC ‘s website.

Bitcoin (BTC) quickly fell by more than 3% from its perch near $35,000 late Tuesday morning after the ticker for BlackRock’s (BLK) spot bitcoin ETF – IBTC – was removed from the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation’s (DTCC) website.

The ticker’s appearance on the DTCC site yesterday – rightly or wrongly – had investors speculating about imminent approval for a spot bitcoin ETF, thus playing a factor in BTC’s sharp gain from the $30,000 area to more than $35,000.
