The tell we were waiting for just showed up: spot BTC and ETH ETFs pulled in $606M and $221M respectively on Aug 20 — both bigger than the day before. That’s not short-covering anymore, that’s institutional money actually showing up after the squeeze, which is exactly the difference between a forced rally and a real one. BTC pushing toward $78-79K, ETH above $2,400, BNB holding its own gains too. Meanwhile MANTRA got exploited and halted the same day — a good reminder that green candles and protocol risk are two completely separate conversations, and treating them as one is how people get hurt in weeks like this. $BTC $ETH $BNB
