BlackRock has filed for a bitcoin exchange-traded fund (ETF) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) despite the regulator rejecting all previous applications for spot bitcoin ETFs.

The price of bitcoin dipped to $25,000 after the Federal Reserve announced additional interest rate hikes.
