Bitcoin Outshines Taylor Swift in Google Searches

Bitcoin has surpassed pop culture juggernaut Taylor Swift in terms of Google search interest after its recent rally, Bloomberg reports.  

According to recent Google Trends data, the digital currency has seen a surge in searches, reaching its highest point in over a year and eclipsing the combined search volume of the "Anti-Hero" chanteuse over the past week. 

Bitcoin's rally to new heights

As reported by U.Today, the flagship cryptocurrency reached a new all-time high of $73,737 earlier this Thursday. 

Although there has been a slight pullback from these peaks, the excitement around Bitcoin exchange-traded funds remains palpable. These financial products have allowed investors to gain exposure to Bitcoin without the need to directly purchase and hold the cryptocurrency, leading to nearly $12 billion in inflows since their launch.
