$BTC is BULLISH — surged past $68,000** on Aug 19 after the U.S. Treasury announced it would double long-end bond buybacks, triggering ~$1.4B in short liquidations. BTC hit $68,861** with 6.5% daily gains. Analyst Aksel Kibar notes a bullish inverse head-and-shoulders pattern forming since June — if BTC holds above resistance, upside target is $76,000. ETFs added $487M in two days, with August inflows nearing $1B.
$ETH is BULLISH — surged 9.51% to $2,098.70, outperforming BTC. A whale bought 5,300 ETH (~$10M) on Aug 17. However, ETH is 1.13% below its critical 200-day EMA at $2,122.40** — a daily close above this level could open the door to **$2,200–$2,400.
$SOL is BULLISH — a whale bought 47,535 SOL ($3.6M) after two years of silence. ARK Invest bought into 3iQ SOL staking ETF. SOL ETF inflows surged 70x to $10.26M. Break above $78** could target **$100.
📊 THE BOTTOM LINE:
U.S. Treasury policy shift = liquidity injection into risk assets. ETH and SOL showing whale accumulation. BTC leading the charge. Risk-on is back.
