The cryptocurrency, now accounting for upwards of 80% of all online gambling transactions, held its own after news that the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission rejecting a listing request late Thursday for a bitcoin exchange-traded fund run by Tyler and Cameron Winklevoss.

CBOE Global Markets Inc., which would have listed the ETF, failed to show that the underlying Bitcoin market was "resistant to manipulation."
