Bitcoin recently had a scorching hot run. It has some crypto market observers believing new all-time highs are right around the corner.

Interesting Speculation Arises for Some Crypto Stocks

Ten spot bitcoin exchange traded funds came to market last month, increasing access to the largest cryptocurrency for scores of advisors and investors. While that event is obviously pertinent to bitcoin itself, there are derivative beneficiaries.

China-focused ETFs struggle amid fears of another regulatory ‘crackdown'

As a portfolio manager with an active investment strategy, I always found investing in exchange-traded funds somewhat unexciting. On the other side of the aisle was crypto, which is not for the faint of heart and not an asset class that I wanted to include in my investment portfolio.
