Bitcoin jumped to a record high on Monday, fuelled by continued positive momentum of the spot ETFs. Less activities took place over the weekend, and the amount of long liquidations is double that of short for BTC and triple for ETH. Bitcoin continues to rise in the ranks of top assets by market cap, pushing past silver to become the world's eighth most valuable property.

With a 4% advance to an all-time high past $72,000 in the morning hours of U.S. trading, BTC valuation shot to $1.42T, above that of sliver at $1.387T, according to CompaniesMarketCap. This rally is fueled by the positive momentum of spot Bitcoin ETFs, with the London Stock Exchange deciding to accept applications for BTC and ETH exchange-traded notes (ETNs) on Monday.
