Crypto investors have money into bitcoin exchange-traded products at a record pace ever since BlackRock filed for a spot-based ETF on June 15.New data from K33 Research shows the BTC-equivalent exposure of ETPs listed worldwide increased by 25,202 BTC ($757 million) to 196,824 BTC in the four weeks to July 16.

SG Forge is licensed to provide buying and selling, exchange and custody of digital assets as of July 18, according to the .

Messaging platform Telegram issued $270 million in bonds this week to fund its growth until "we reach the break-even point," CEO Pavel Durov Tuesday. The platform is not yet profitable and has rising expenses due to its "massive growth," Durov said. It’s onboarding 2.5 million new users a day and earlier this year hit 800 million monthly active users. "I personally bought about a quarter of the new Telegram bonds, investing tens of millions into Telegram's growth. This comes in addition to the hundreds of millions I spent over the last 10 years to keep Telegram operational," Durov said. The alternative messaging platform has long been a favorite among crypto enthusiasts. That's partly attributable to the company's defunct efforts to launch its own crypto token, GRAM.
