To wrap things up, here’s a quick crypto news brief: Spot Bitcoin ETFs have officially kicked off their first full trading week, and it’s a big deal! This could mark a new era for Bitcoin as more institutional investors enter the space, potentially leading to more liquidity and legitimacy for the crypto market as a whole.
