Golden cross optimism collides with rising yields and macro headwinds as BTC stalls below $80K.
Bitcoin slipped 0.59% to about $78,549 and failed to reclaim the $80K level as Treasury yields rose despite an expanded $6 billion bond buyback, while yen strength revived carry-trade unwind fears.

Corporate catalysts were abundant: Consensys will split MetaMask from its institutional business, Tether launched a $400 million private credit fund, and Block applied for a US trust bank charter.

Bitcoin sits near $78,549 after a week of steady closes in the high-70k range, holding so-called golden-zone support ahead of Friday's inflation data and the Fed's September 16 decision. Corporate treasury activity stays busy: Strategy paused new BTC purchases to repurchase $176 million of preferred stock, while Bitmine pushed its ETH treasury to 4.9% of supply.

Bitcoin held near $80,323 (+0.56% over 24h) while ETH advanced to $2,511.45 (+1.29%), capping a week of steady recovery from the low $77,000s. Bitcoin ETF inflows dropped 76% into the Labor Day break, with only BlackRock and FBTC attracting fresh money, signaling fading near-term institutional appetite. The biggest shock of the weekend was the Liquid Network pause after a purported 'white-hat' action moved $320 million in bitcoin out of its peg, raising questions about sidechain custody. Meanwhile, Solana's ETF inflows collapsed 97% and XRP spot volume hit a six-month high on continued Ripple visibility.
Hot US jobs data re-priced Fed expectations, dragging Bitcoin back below $80,000 even as ETF inflows stay strong.

Spot Bitcoin ETFs still drew nearly $1 billion in the latest week, their best three-week stretch of 2026. Altcoin narratives mixed Zcash's ETF-driven surge past $1,000 against growing pains for Robinhood Chain and a Trezor security breach that widened sixfold.
Hot US payrolls erased a Fed-hope rally, pulling BTC back below $80K despite record ETF inflows.

Bitcoin hovered near $77,324 as an Iran-related risk selloff pressured majors, with ETH slipping to $2,392.75 and onchain apparent demand turning negative. Beneath the soft tape, August was the best month of 2026 for US spot Bitcoin ETFs, and XRP ETFs kept gathering institutional inflows.
