Bitcoin rises above $62,000; RSS calls for crypto regulation

 The crypto market is trading mixed on Monday morning, with Bitcoin trading nearly 2 percent higher at $62,134. The coin has surged nearly 12 percent in the past seven days, having crossed $60,000 last Saturday. The coin is close to an all-time high as investors hoped US regulators would soon approve a futures-based exchange-traded fund (ETF), a move likely to open the path to wider investment in digital assets.

Ether, the number two coin, has also risen half a percent in the past 24 hours. While other altcoins like Binance Coin traded over 1 percent higher, Cardano and Ripple XRP declined over 1 and 3 percent, respectively.
Polkadot, on the other hand, has risen over half a percent and Dogecoin is up nearly 1 percent over the last 24 hours.
