Last update: 3 hours agoBitcoin ETF & macro lift: BTC pushed back above $80,000 for the first time since May, helped by softer dollar fears and a Treasury bond buyback push, while spot Bitcoin ETFs extended inflows (about $337.6M on Aug. 24; IBIT led). Derivatives pressure: A wave of short liquidations and heavy IBIT options positioning ahead of Sept. 18 (about $5B notional; “max pain” near $40) is adding fuel.

Crypto market plumbing: Kraken said it blocked customers after a “dust attack” tied to a sanctioned HTX wallet. Regulatory/geo: Azerbaijan ordered state confiscation of 830 crypto units tied to a criminal case. Ethereum ecosystem: Lido extended a 0% stVaults infrastructure fee through Oct. 31, and Ethereum floated a staking rule tweak that could change how long rewards stay compounding.
