The Bitcoin Cash price has risen by 15% in the past 24 hours, with its jump to $219.44 following yesterday's news that Grayscale has won a court appeal against the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Grayscale's victory now means that the SEC has to re-review Grayscale's application for a spot-based Bitcoin ETF, a development which has given a boost not only to BTC, but to BTC-related tokens such as Bitcoin Cash (BCH), Bitcoin SV (BSV) and Stacks (STX).

This uncertainty stems from the fact that BCH's rally today has been caused by news that doesn't directly relate to it, with Grayscale's successful appeal relating specifically to Bitcoin (BTC).
Still, the acceptance of spot BTC
