Crypto May Have Entered a New Phase

The U.S. Treasury plans to increase its long-term bond buybacks to around $4B per operation from September.

What stands out is not the announcement itself, but the reaction. Crypto moved much more strongly than the news would normally justify.

That can be a sign that the market was already ready for a move. The Treasury news may have simply provided the trigger.

At the same time, many traders were still waiting for a much deeper correction. Some were expecting $BTC at $62K–$65K before buying, while others were positioned for another drop.

Now the situation is changing. If $BTC keeps moving higher without a major pullback, those waiting for lower prices may start chasing the market instead.

Short sellers face the opposite problem. The longer BTC stays high, the more pressure builds on their positions.

This can create a simple cycle:
Higher prices → shorts close → buyers enter → price moves higher.

That is usually what a strong market looks like: fewer deep pullbacks and more buyers willing to enter at higher prices.
