1417 GMT - U.S. Bitcoin and Ether exchange-traded products saw net sales of $608 million and $184 million, respectively, on Thursday, J.P. Morgan analysts estimate, as crypto investors jump on positive signals from U.S. regulators and a weaker dollar. These flows were an acceleration from already-strong flows on Wednesday, they write. Flows were concentrated in BlackRock's Bitcoin ETF, which saw inflows of $504 million, they say. Funds managed by Fidelity and Bitwise also saw significant inflows. Trading volumes totaled $5.405 billion Thursday, well ahead of the running daily average of $3.22 billion, they say. Bitcoin rises 5.4% to $76,965.03, while Ether--the token of blockchain network Ethereum--adds 2.3% to trade at $2,379.82.
