BITCOIN CRUSHED $1.67B IN SHORT BETS AFTER A $517M SPOT ETF SURGE 🚨👀📈
On 19 August 2026, the US Treasury Department announced it would double its buyback cap on long-term government bonds to at least $4B per operation starting in September 2026. Long-term bond yields briefly dropped before quickly bouncing back. 🏦📉
Right after that move, US spot Bitcoin ETFs drew $517M in net inflows in a single day, marking the highest daily inflow since May 2026. As spot buying pushed $BTC past $75k, market data showed short sellers (traders betting on lower prices) were liquidated and forced to buy back $1.67B in Bitcoin. 💥📊
Government bond buybacks provide only a brief spark, not the main engine for price growth. A short squeeze lifts prices while short traders are being forced out, but once those liquidations clear, the market runs out of forced buyers. ⚡🏛️
🟧 Long-term outlook: Further price expansion depends on steady, repeated inflows into spot Bitcoin ETFs. Without fresh institutional cash buying coins week after week, the rally cools off when bond yields rise. 💸📈
With tariffs and geopolitical tensions emerging, do you believe BTC will keep pumping? 👇
