Shares of Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) miners including Cipher Mining Inc (NASDAQ:CIFR), CleanSpark Inc (NASDAQ:CLSK) and Hut 8 Corp (NASDAQ:HUT) are trading higher Wednesday as the price of Bitcoin continues to climb.

What Happened: Bitcoin crossed the $40,000 level at the beginning of December and has been stuck in a trading range throughout most of the month. Bitcoin began moving lower over the long weekend and continued to trend down on Tuesday before finding its footing and reversing course.

The rally in the crypto space has largely been driven by continued optimism surrounding a potential spot ETF. Grayscale refiled an amended Bitcoin ETF application this week and analysts continue to expect the SEC to approve a spot ETF in the coming weeks. Many anticipate approval coming in the first two weeks of 2024.

$BTC Price Action: At the time of writing, Bitcoin was up 1.08% over a 24-hour period at $43,069, according to Benzinga Pro.
