🔥 Main updates
$80K reclaimed: Bitcoin has held above the $80K area after last week's strong rebound.
ETF flows improved: U.S. spot BTC ETFs took in about $433M on Friday, with Fidelity's FBTC contributing about $310.7M. However, the full week ended with only +$6.2M net inflow, so demand remains mixed.
$82K–$83K zone: This is the immediate area traders are watching as BTC approaches recent highs.
Fed remains important: The Fed recently raised rates to 3.75%–4.00%, and markets are watching expectations for further tightening.
Regulation: The U.S. crypto legislation setback remains a source of uncertainty, while SEC/CFTC regulatory activity continues.
Sept. 18, 2026: Warren Buffett, 96, stepped down as chairman of Berkshire Hathaway after more than five decades in the role. � Reuters He is now Chairman Emeritus and remains a Berkshire director. � Reuters +1 His son, Howard Buffett, 71, became the non-executive chairman, with a stated focus on preserving Berkshire's culture and values. � Reuters +1 Greg Abel has already been Berkshire's CEO since January 1, 2026, so operational leadership had already shifted away from Warren Buffett. � Securities and Exchange Commission The latest reporting says Warren Buffett's departure from the chairmanship is viewed as the final major step in Berkshire's long-planned leadership transition. � The Business Times Important: This does not mean Buffett has left Berkshire completely. He remains a director and a major shareholder, but he no longer has a management role. � Reuters
Michael Saylor / Strategy’s Bitcoin-buying strategy:
Strategy currently holds 845,050 BTC; its latest reported average acquisition cost is about $75,412 per BTC.
Strategy did buy 4,603 BTC for about $370 million at the end of August after a roughly 10-week pause. Saylor posted “We’re back” beforehand.
But the latest weekly update shows no new BTC purchase. Instead, Strategy used about $139 million for a preferred-stock buyback, leaving BTC holdings unchanged at 845,050 $BTC .
So Saylor’s latest hints should be treated as signals/speculation, not confirmation of a new Bitcoin purchase. The company has been balancing BTC accumulation with maintaining its cash reserves and buying back its securities.
Bottom line: Saylor remains committed to the Bitcoin treasury strategy, but as of the latest report there is no confirmed fresh BTC buy. The market is watching his next Sunday/X post and the following SEC filing for confirmation.
Current BTC price: about $81,300, up roughly 0.2% in 24 hours. BTC is trading near the $81K area after a strong rebound last week.
🔥 Main developments
BTC reclaimed $80,000: Bitcoin pushed above $80K on Friday, reaching around $80,587 during trading.
ETF flows improved: U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs attracted about $433M on Friday, helping offset earlier weekly outflows. The full week still ended with only $6.2M net inflows.
Fed remains a major factor: The Federal Reserve recently raised rates, while its relatively hawkish stance continues to influence crypto and other risk assets.
U.S. crypto legislation setback: The CLARITY Act failed to advance in the Senate, adding regulatory uncertainty, although BTC subsequently recovered above $80K.
Regulatory activity continues: The SEC and CFTC are moving forward with crypto-related regulatory initiatives despite the legislative setback.
#bitcoin 💰 $BTC price: around $77,000–$77,300. $BTC has been relatively volatile but is currently consolidating around this level. � CoinStats +1 📉 ETF pressure: Recent U.S. spot $BTC ETF outflows have returned, putting pressure on BTC as it struggles to reclaim/hold the $80K area. � Analytics Insight +1 🇺🇸 Fed/inflation: August core CPI came in 0.3% month-over-month, faster than expected, increasing concern that U.S. rates could stay higher or rise. That's a headwind for risk assets like BTC. � CoinDesk 📊 Key levels: $80K is the major psychological/resistance area. BTC is currently trading below it, so a convincing break above $80K would improve the short-term setup. ⚠️ Volatility: BTC had a sharp move around the latest CPI release before settling near $77K. � CryptoPotato Bottom line: The short-term BTC setup is cautious/neutral rather than strongly bullish. ETF flows and the upcoming Fed decision/rate expectations are probably the biggest catalysts to watch.#BTC #btc70k #Binance
