With wider acceptance of cryptocurrency payments by other US States, other nations may turn to follow suit due to FOMO from the benefits the blockchain technology has in store.

Approval of Bitcoin ETFs:

One of the expected catalysts for the repeat of the crypto bull run of late Dec 2017 and early January 2018 is the approval of Bitcoin ETFs. With, the continuous rise in the number of States in the US passing favourable Bitcoin bills, the launch of Bitcoin futures could be soon.

These bills are expected to influence public opinion on how they view cryptocurrencies but also stimulate some investors who are scared of the unregulated nature of the space.
