Bitcoin Surges Above $79,000 Amid Strong ETF Inflows and Regulatory Optimism
Bitcoin surged above $79,000 briefly on August 24, driven by institutional demand, ETF inflows, and optimism around the US CLARITY Act. US spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded their largest weekly inflow in 10 months, totaling $1.92 billion, reflecting renewed investor interest amid easing bond yields and a short squeeze. Analysts note the rally is consolidating with elevated volatility, and while momentum remains strong, some profit-taking or price retracement is possible in the near term.
