Bitcoin, the world’s most popular cryptocurrency, saw its price rise to a new all-time high of $69,170.63 on Tuesday afternoon.
The new price surpassed the previous record high of $68,999.99, set in November 2021.
The development comes as investors began to actively investigate U.S. spot exchange-traded cryptocurrency products in response to concerns that global interest rates could fall.
According to LSEG data, BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT.O) collected more than $2 billion of the $2.2 billion in net flows into the top ten U.S. spot bitcoin funds last Friday.
