The crypto market followed a "dip-then-rally" pattern this week before accelerating into a sharp reversal toward the weekend. Early in the week, BTC traded sideways in the 63,000–65,000 range while ETH consolidated around $1,880, with market sentiment dampened by periodic spot ETF outflows and selling pressure from miners and institutions. The White House Crypto Summit on August 19 served as a key inflection point: Trump convened executives from Coinbase, Ripple, Robinhood, and Kraken alongside SEC Chairman Atkins and CFTC Chairman Selig, publicly urging Congress to advance the CLARITY Act, while the SEC simultaneously signaled a proposed framework for crypto asset regulatory exemptions.
Fueled by policy catalysts, returning capital inflows, and short covering, both BTC and ETH staged a massive surge. As of the morning of August 21, BTC broke above $72,000 and touched the $74,000 mark intraday (up 7.6% on the day); ETH climbed back above $2,300 (gaining over 20% over two days). On the flows front, U.S. spot BTC ETFs recorded approximately $517 million in net inflows on August 19—the strongest single-day inflow since May 4—while spot ETH ETFs drew roughly $189 million, hitting a new high since October 2025. In derivatives, short positions faced a major squeeze, triggering over $1 billion in global liquidations within 24 hours, including around $3 billion in BTC short liquidations, marking one of the largest squeeze events in recent years.
⚠️ Risk Warning: It is worth noting that the legislative process for U.S. crypto regulation remains slow, and significant regulatory uncertainty persists. Should inflation rebound and prompt the Federal Reserve to maintain elevated interest rates, risk assets like cryptocurrencies will remain under pressure. Even amidst periodic rallies, selling pressure from high-level overhead supply may continue to cap further upside potential.
