Overview
- Bitcoin trades around $107,000–$109,000 after a roughly 13% pullback from its mid‑August record near $124,000.
- U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded about $751 million in August net outflows, while Ethereum funds took in roughly $3.9 billion for the month.
- Weekly CoinShares data show $2.48 billion entering digital asset products, with Ethereum capturing 57% of inflows and Bitcoin drawing $748 million for the week despite its monthly outflow.
- On‑chain metrics are mixed: Bitcoin has fallen below short‑term holder cost bases, yet Delta Cap near an implied $108,900 and a positive Coinbase Premium Gap (+11.6) indicate underlying support.
- Derivatives positioning has added volatility, with CoinGlass tallying about $196 million in Bitcoin long liquidations and $274 million across crypto in 24 hours, as analysts flag potential tests of $100,000 or a $93,000–$95,000 floor if supports fail.
