Assets invested in cryptocurrency exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and exchange-traded products (ETPs) have hit a record new high of $91.69 billion at the end of July, according to data from ETFGI, an independent research firm.
ETFGI notes assets have increased 506.4% during 2024 going from $15.12 billion at the end of 2023 to $91.69 billion.
