Bitcoin Records Historic $14,775 Weekly Surge as Spot ETF Flows and Liquidation Cascade Surge
Bitcoin posted its largest single-week dollar increase in history, surging $14,775 as institutional spot ETF inflows returned in force. Macro tailwinds, including expanded US Treasury buybacks and regulatory momentum, triggered a $2.7 billion liquidation cascade among short sellers. With spot price pushing past $80,000, institutional appetite has aggressively reclaimed market control.
Bitcoin just logged the biggest one-week dollar gain in its history, ripping $14,775 higher to close at $77,593 before pushing past $80,000. The 23.5% move represents BTC's most aggressive weekly chart expansion since early 2023, turning macro market structure bullish almost overnight.
Macro engines fired on all cylinders to drive the rally. The US Treasury revealed plans to double long-bond buyback operations to ease pressure on Treasury yields, while renewed calls to pass the digital asset CLARITY Act injected major regulatory optimism into spot order books.
Under-hedged bears paid heavily for fighting the trend, with roughly $2.7 billion in short positions wiped out across derivatives exchanges. The massive forced-buying cascade accelerated price action higher, while US spot Bitcoin ETF inflows surged to their strongest levels since late 2025, confirming real institutional conviction behind the move.
