A rush of investment into Bitcoin ETFs in recent days sent the combined asset value of such investment vehicles to a record high of more than $158 billion, according to The Block, an outlet that covers digital assets. Investors placed more than a billion dollars into Bitcoin ETFs on consecutive days last week, The Block found.

The value of a single bitcoin surpassed $120,000 early Monday, the latest record price for the digital token that has set multiple all-time highs in recent weeks amid bullishness about developments on Capitol Hill and concerns about inflation and the U.S. dollar's declining value.
