Momentum has flipped quickly, and the latest ETF data gives bulls and the news another reason to stay interested.<\/p>\n<h2>Bitcoin ETF Flows Flip Back Positive Despite Bearish News Earlier<\/h2>\n<p>The 12 US spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded $600 million in net inflows on August 20. That was a bigger inflow than the previous sessions, extending the recent run of positive flows.<\/p>\n<p>The August 20 figure followed inflows of $297.5 million on August 17, $186.4 million on August 18, and $517 million on August 19. That puts the three-day inflow total through August 19 at more than a billion.<\/p>\n\n<p>BItcoin ETF, <a class=\"general-link\" href=\"http:\/\/coinglass.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Coinglass<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The latest session was led by IBIT, which recorded over $500 million in inflows. The broader ETF group remained positive despite the much smaller daily figure.<\/p>\n<p>This is overall positive for the market that had just gone through a short period of ETF weakness. The funds posted outflows on August 12, 13, and 14 before buyers returned the following week.<\/p>\n<p>Now Bitcoin is trading at levels not seen since earlier in the year. <a class=\"general-link\" href=\"http:\/\/coingecko.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CoinGecko<\/a> shows BTC up 24% over the past seven days, with daily trading volume around $66.9 billion.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/visit\/bybit-airdrop-campaign\" class=\"sc-button sc-button-green sc-button-medium\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span>Trade Bitcoin on ByBit and Join 99Bitcoin\u2019s Exclusive $1000 USDT Airdrop Campaign<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Treasury Move Adds Fuel to the Bitcoin Rally<\/h2>\n<p>The biggest catalyst appears to have come from the US Treasury, as Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent announced plans to double long-term bond buybacks. The move initially pushed longer-dated Treasury yields lower and weakened the dollar.<\/p>\n<p>That helped Bitcoin and gold catch a bid. Reuters reported that Bitcoin climbed above $70,000 after the Treasury announcement, while crypto-related stocks also rallied.<\/p>\n<p>There is also a positioning story behind the move. Short liquidations accelerated as Bitcoin ripped higher. Forced buying can make an already strong rally move much faster, especially when the price breaks a level that had capped buyers for weeks.<\/p>\n<p>BREAKING: Bitcoin extends gains to rise above $70,000 for the first time since June 2nd and levered short liquidations hit $2.7 billion in 24 hours. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/vs7NjXPsw1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">pic.twitter.com\/vs7NjXPsw1<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 The Kobeissi Letter (@KobeissiLetter) <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/KobeissiLetter\/status\/2090187680336240968?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">August 19, 2026<\/a><\/p>\n\n<p>That creates the big question now. Is Bitcoin entering a genuine trend reversal, or did the market simply squeeze shorts into a thin resistance zone?<\/p>\n<p>The answer will likely come from what happens next with ETF flows. The August 20 inflow was only $38.6 million, so bulls still need to prove that institutional buying can remain consistent after the initial breakout.<\/p>\n<p>For now, the price chart is doing most of the talking. Bitcoin has climbed more than 23% in seven days and is sitting near $78,000. If BTC can hold above $75,000 while ETF flows remain <a class=\"general-link\" href=\"https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">positive<\/a>, the next psychological target is obvious: $80,000\u00a0is back on the menu.<\/p>\n<p><strong>EXPLORE:\u00a0<a class=\"general-link\" href=\"https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/cryptocurrency\/next-1000x-crypto\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Best Crypto Presales With Asymmetric Upside in the Current Market<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<div><strong>Follow\u00a0<a class=\"general-link\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/99bitcoins\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">99Bitcoins on X<\/a>\u00a0For the Latest Market Updates and\u00a0<a class=\"general-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@99Bitcoins\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Subscribe on YouTube<\/a>\u00a0For Daily Expert Market Analysis.<\/strong><\/div>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/news\/bitcoin-btc\/bitcoin-etf-outflows-rally\/\">Bitcoin ETF News: BTC USD Weekly Surge Comes as ETF Flows Reverse<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/\">99Bitcoins<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bitcoin price action has gone completely vertical this week.
