US stock exchange operator CBOE has resubmitted its application to list a bitcoin ETF on one of its trading platforms, just days after the firm withdrew its previous bid.

VanEck digital asset head Gabor Gurbacs made the announcement on Twitter, noting that it was the product of “[h]ard work from all teams involved.”
