Bitcoin rises 5% to highest in a month - REUTERS
LONDON, Feb 9 (Reuters) - Bitcoin rose 5% on Friday to its highest in a month, marching back towards the level it reached in January on the back of optimism after the first U.S. listed spot bitcoin exchange traded products received regulatory approval.
The world's largest cryptocurrency rose as much as 5.16% to $47,667. It has gained 10% this week, its most in a week since October. Bitcoin hit a two-year high just above $49,000 in January.
