🚀 Crypto market today ‖ August 21 $BTC 🧧🧧 🔥 BTC breaks above $75,000, and the market enters an acceleration phase
This week’s crypto market has risen for the third consecutive day.
BTC once broke through $75,000–$77,000, with a 24-hour gain of about 7–9% and a weekly gain nearing 20%; ETH is above $2,350–$2,380, with a weekly gain of about 24–25%.
The total market cap of the entire market has once again broken above $2.5 trillion. The Fear & Greed Index rises to 72 | Greed.
🚄 This time, it’s not just FOMO driving the move
💰 Spot BTC ETFs keep pulling in money
On August 20, net inflows into spot BTC ETFs were about $600–608 million; net inflows into spot ETH ETFs were about $220 million, one of the strongest single-day performances since October 2025.
Institutional capital is becoming an important fuel for this breakout.
💥 The Short Squeeze is still ongoing
Over the past 24 hours, another about $1.0–1.2 billion in short positions were liquidated.
Over the past 2–3 days, the cumulative liquidation size has already reached about $3.8–4.0 billion+.
Shorts are being forced to close again and again, further amplifying the upward momentum.
🇺🇸 Trump: The U.S. once discussed large-scale accumulation of BTC
As U.S. Treasury debt breaks above $40 trillion, Trump said the U.S. government had discussed the possibility of large-scale accumulating Bitcoin and other crypto assets.
If the future shifts from “holding reserves” to主动加持 (actively adding), the market narrative could upgrade again.
📈 BTC is breaking out of a six-week consolidation range
A strong breakout above $75K means Bitcoin has already escaped the previously ongoing multi-week choppy structure.
But at the same time, the price is rapidly approaching the key resistance zone at $75K–$76K, and the short-term market is clearly heating up.
🚨 The market is hot, but don’t forget the risks
Some analysts believe the current move already shows clear signs of being overheated; if ETF inflows slow down or leverage gets too high, sharp volatility could still hit at any time.

🔥 Major Institutional Signal! Starkiller Confirms the Cycle Bottoming Out, Fully Closes All Short Positions On August 21, crypto institution Starkiller released a report. Based on the recent strong rebound, it is highly confident that digital assets have already reached the bottom. It had already liquidated all short positions last month.
BTC and ETH have both climbed above the 200-day moving average, the first time since the previous cycle ended. Prices have held above the early-year VWAP. This bear market lasted 315 days—nearing the historical average duration for a bear cycle.
Regulatory implementation is progressing, and U.S. Treasury buybacks have improved liquidity—both serving as key drivers of the market reversal.
This new bull market will not bring back an all-around surge❗ Capital will concentrate on assets with real revenues and value capture. Tokens without fundamental support still face shorting risk even if the broader market strengthens.
Institutional note: BTC around the $80,000 area may see a phase of pullback.
Long-term, it is exceptionally bullish on stablecoins, asset tokenization, on-chain derivatives, and DeFi neutral-yield strategies. The turning point of the new cycle has arrived. #Bitcoin Intra-day Hit $75,500

📌 Bitcoin Approaches Formation of a “Golden Cross” 🔱
🎯 Long-Term Bullish Signal Reappears
On August 20, Bitcoin (BTC) may be nearing the formation of a “golden cross,” a pattern commonly regarded in technical analysis as a long-term bullish momentum signal. If Bitcoin currently breaks above the 50-day simple moving average (SMA) and continues rising, and then breaks above the 200-day SMA, currently at $69,005, the pattern would be officially formed.
As this potential crossover emerges, Bitcoin’s price has already climbed above $71,000, gaining more than 12% over the past week. The current price is also slightly above the 200-day SMA.
The 200-day SMA reflects Bitcoin’s average closing price over the past 200 trading days and is widely used to assess the market’s long-term trend. If Bitcoin continues to trade above this moving average, it typically suggests the market may be shifting from a bear market to a bull market; conversely, a drop below the 200-day SMA could signal the opposite.

BTC breaks through $74,000! Macro and regulatory double tailwinds ignite the rally! The U.S. Treasury announced that the bond repo program will be doubled (from $2.0 billion to $4.0 billion), significantly boosting liquidity expectations! Combined with the White House and the SEC repeatedly issuing favorable signals on new crypto regulations, Bitcoin surged strongly today—both spot and perpetual contract demand have warmed up in sync! Have you missed this rebound? What’s your target for the next one?
🔥 After BTC surged above $72K, one question is becoming increasingly important: who is really driving this rally?
Over the past few days, the pace in the Crypto market has clearly changed.
$BTC broke out from long-term consolidation quickly, reaching above $72K at one point; $ETH followed strongly as well, hovering near $2,300; and $BNB also bounced in line with the market.
But if you only look at the price, you might miss the more noteworthy changes behind this move.
This time, several factors are happening at the same time:
🔹 The U.S. Treasury expands long-term Treasury repo operations, and the market is re-pricing liquidity expectations 🔹 Large short positions are being liquidated in succession, further accelerating the upside momentum 🔹 Crypto regulatory expectations in the U.S. are heating up again 🔹 After BTC breaks out, capital starts to spread into ETH and other mainstream assets
So what the market should really be watching now isn’t:
“Can BTC keep going up?”
But rather:
After the Short Squeeze push gradually weakens, can real buying step in?
If trading volume and money flows continue to hold, the nature of this rally may shift from a “fast squeeze” into broader participation by capital.
On the other hand, if subsequent capital doesn’t keep following through, the same high volatility could also trigger a rapid pullback.
Going forward, I’m more focused on:
👀 Whether BTC can hold the new price range after the breakout 👀 Whether ETH can continue to outperform BTC 👀 Whether mainstream assets like BNB can receive sustained rotation of capital
Phase one is the breakout. Phase two is the squeeze. In the third phase, what matters is the real capital.
In the coming days, what may be more important than the breakout itself.
