Bitcoin price soars as hype grows over futures ETF

Bitcoin prices surged over the weekend and pushed higher Monday amid expectations that an exchange-traded fund tracking futures contracts for the leading crypto would begin trading this week.

ProShares has said its proposed Bitcoin Strategy ETF — to trade under the ticker BITO — could begin trading as soon as Monday, assuming US regulators don't step in to block its launch.
