The world’s biggest and best-known cryptocurrency is up 82.3% from the year’s low of $38,505 on Jan. 23.
Ether, the coin linked to the ethereum blockchain network, rose 13.3% today to $3,500.
The approval and launch of spot bitcoin exchange-traded funds in the U.S. this year has opened the asset class to new investors and reignited the excitement that evaporated when prices collapsed in the “crypto winter” of 2022.
