MEXC Alpha Trader Weekly | BTC and Gold Surge on the “Debasement Trade” — New Regime or Short-Term Frenzy?
3rd Week of August 2026
Statistical Period: August 19, 2026 – August 25, 2026
Data Cutoff: August 25, 2026
Core Narrative
Over the past week, the crypto market experienced a rare unilateral surge. Bitcoin started the week at around $64,000, successively breaking through the four major integer thresholds of $65,000, $70,000, $75,000, and $80,000. As of the Asian session on August 25, BTC hit a high of $80,908, with a weekly gain of approximately 23%, marking its largest weekly increase in nearly three years.
The narrative logic behind this rally is distinctly different from previous ones. Against the backdrop of rising U.S. Treasury yields and a weakening U.S. dollar, Bitcoin and gold surged in tandem, with their 90-day correlation reaching the highest level since the pandemic. Reuters attributed this rally to "currency debasement trades"—markets are beginning to worry that intervention measures taken by the U.S. to stabilize the long-term bond market may lead to a continuous dilution of the U.S. dollar's purchasing power.
The "weak dollar trade" has become the core narrative of this rally. On August 19, the U.S. Treasury announced it would double the size of its long-term Treasury liquidity repurchase operations, raising the single-operation cap for 10-20 year and 20-30 year maturities from $2 billion to at least $4 billion, with the new arrangement effective from September 9. Meanwhile, the July FOMC minutes from the Federal Reserve signaled a hawkish stance, with the 30-year U.S. Treasury yield briefly touching 5.337%, a new high since 2007. High long-end interest rates, fiscal deficit pressures, and potential currency dilution risks have driven capital toward scarce assets outside the sovereign credit system, such as gold and Bitcoin. Gold broke through $4,600 per ounce, and Bitcoin rose more than 23% in a single week, with both surging simultaneously confirming the widespread adoption of the "weak dollar trade."
Short squeezes further amplified the gains. On August 19 alone, liquidations of short positions in the crypto market reached a record approximately $2.7 billion. Short covering resonated with ETF inflows, accelerating price upward momentum.
ETF funds recorded their largest weekly inflow in nearly 10 months. Thirteen U.S.-listed spot Bitcoin ETFs saw a combined net inflow of approximately $1.92 billion last week, marking the highest level since October 2025. Net inflows for August have already accumulated to $2.38 billion, making it one of the strongest months of the year.
Overall, the market achieved a Strong Breakout this week under the triple resonance of "USD depreciation trade + massive ETF inflows + short squeeze." The market is closely watching this week's Jackson Hole Global Central Bankers Symposium—where Federal Reserve Chair Walsh will deliver his first keynote speech since taking office—which could become a key variable determining the future direction.
1. Core Dynamics of the Crypto Market
1.1 Institutional Capital: Bitcoin ETFs See $1.92 Billion in Net Inflows in a Single Week, Hitting a Nearly 10-Month High
In the third week of August, Bitcoin spot ETFs delivered impressive results that captured market attention.
According to data compiled by Bloomberg, over the five trading days ending August 21, 13 US-listed Bitcoin spot ETFs recorded combined net inflows of approximately $1.92 billion, marking the largest single-week net inflow since October 2025. Notably, net inflows on August 20 alone reached $606.3 million, the largest single-day increase since May.
From a product structure perspective, BlackRock's IBIT has seen capital inflows for five consecutive trading days, becoming the absolute main driver of this round of inflows. August has recorded a cumulative net inflow of $2.38 billion, making it one of the strongest months this year, although the single-week inflow volume remains lower than the buying wave before the crash in October 2025.
Ethereum Spot ETFs surged simultaneously. In the third week of August, net inflows reached approximately $697 million, not only reversing the net outflow trend of the previous week but also marking the largest single-week inflow in 46 weeks. The combined net inflow for both product types was approximately $2.6 billion.
Trading activity soared in tandem. The weekly trading volume for Bitcoin ETFs jumped from $6.9 billion in the previous week to $22.15 billion, an increase of over 219%; the weekly trading volume for Ethereum ETFs rose from $1.9 billion to $6.9 billion, a surge of 259%.
Institutional and Retail Behavior: The Crypto Fear & Greed Index rose from the fear zone of 40 to the extreme greed zone of 83 within six days. Institutional capital and retail sentiment heated up simultaneously, but the rapid pace suggests a risk of short-term overheating.
1.2 Price Performance: BTC Surges 23% in a Week, Reclaims the $80,000 Mark
Over the past week, Bitcoin experienced its most intense single-week rally since October 2025.
August 19 (Wednesday): Bitcoin bottomed out at approximately $64,166. On that day, the Federal Reserve released the minutes from its July FOMC meeting. Although the signals were somewhat hawkish, the Treasury Department simultaneously announced an expansion of long-term bond repurchases. The market interpreted this as a catalyst for "USD depreciation trades," leading to a 5.3% surge in Bitcoin to $68,245.
August 20-21 (Thursday to Friday): Bitcoin broke through $73,000 and further reached $79,520. ETF inflows also surged, with cumulative net inflows exceeding $800 million over the two days.
August 24-25 (Weekend to Monday): Bitcoin broke through the $80,000 integer mark during Asian trading hours, reaching a high of $80,908. This marked the first time since mid-May that Bitcoin returned above $80,000. As of writing, Bitcoin is consolidating in the $79,000-$80,000 range.
Asset | Weekly Change | Price Range |
Bitcoin | Approx. +23% | $64,000 – $80,900 |
Ethereum | Approx. +26%~+28% | $1,850 – $2,442 |
Solana | Approx. +22%~+24% | $74 – $94 |
XRP | Approx. +44%~+46% | $1.00 – $1.50 |
Total Crypto Market Cap | Approx. +20%~+25% | $2.20 – $2.80 Trillion |
Data Source: MEXC, CoinMarketCap, CoinGecko
Technical Outlook: Bitcoin has decisively broken out of its previous $62,000–$65,000 consolidation range, surpassing the 200-day moving average (approximately $69,000), a traditional bull-bear dividing line. Short-term support lies at $77,000–$78,000 (previous resistance turned support), while upside resistance is at $81,000–$82,000 (the upper boundary of May's trading range). However, the daily RSI has entered overbought territory. If BTC closes and holds above $82,000 on the daily chart, it will open the path to $85,000 and potentially $88,000–$90,000. The market is closely watching Waller's speech at Jackson Hole on Aug 28.
1.3. Stablecoins: Supply increases by $1.87 billion, signaling clear inflow of new capital
For the week ending August 25, the stablecoin market showed significant signs of incremental growth. Data indicates that stablecoin supply increased by approximately $1.87 billion this week. This change contrasts sharply with the continuous contraction seen in previous weeks—since mid-May, the total market capitalization of stablecoins has shrunk by approximately $15–$16 billion.
USDT: Market capitalization is approximately $182.9–$183.3 billion, accounting for about 59.7% of the total stablecoin market cap. Supply rebounded slightly this week, ending the previous streak of consecutive weekly net outflows.
USDC: Market Cap approximately $71.8-72.2 billion, accounting for about 23.5%. USDC continues to lead in on-chain trading activity.
Structural Signal: The sudden increase in stablecoin supply, combined with massive inflows into Bitcoin ETFs, forms a "double increment" signal. Stablecoins are the "dry powder" of the crypto market—an increase in their supply indicates that off-exchange capital is entering the market, rather than the rise being driven solely by leverage from existing funds.
2. Global Asset Performance
2.1 Equity Market: Intensified Sector Rotation, Nasdaq Drops for Seven Consecutive Days, Dow Jones Rises Against the Trend
This week, U.S. stocks showed significant divergence against the backdrop of high long-term U.S. Treasury yields and the conclusion of earnings season. As of August 24, the Nasdaq fell for the seventh consecutive trading day, while both the S&P 500 and Nasdaq ended their previous three-week winning streaks.
Sector rotation intensified, with tech stocks pulling back and financial stocks taking the lead. Tech stocks, which have been the strongest performers year-to-date, became the largest source of selling pressure, with the technology sector (XLK) performing the worst; meanwhile, the consumer staples, financials, and communication services sectors all rose by about 1%. Still, 56% of stocks in the S&P 500 rose, indicating no broad-based sell-off.
Chip stocks remain under pressure. The Philadelphia Semiconductor Index fell 2.7% at the start of the week, while NVIDIA declined for seven consecutive trading sessions, marking its longest losing streak since 2022, with a cumulative drop of approximately 7.5%. Memory chip stocks suffered significant losses, with SanDisk, Seagate Technology, Western Digital, and Micron Technology all falling more than 5%.
As earnings season enters its final stage, NVIDIA is in the spotlight. NVIDIA will release its Q2 earnings after market close on Wednesday, August 26. Wall Street expects revenue of approximately $92 billion (+96% year-over-year), with data center business revenue projected at $85.4 billion (+107% year-over-year).
Crypto-related stocks strengthened alongside Bitcoin's rebound. Shares of Robinhood and Coinbase rose significantly as Bitcoin returned to $80,000.
Index | Weekly Change | Key Drivers | On-chain Mapping |
Nasdaq Composite | Approx. -0.5%~-1% | Chip stocks remain under pressure; Nasdaq posts seventh consecutive daily decline | |
S&P 500 Index | Approx. -0.5%~-1% | Intensified sector rotation; tech pullback with financials taking the lead | |
Dow Jones Industrial Average | Approx. -0.5%~0% | Support from value and financial stocks |
2.2 Commodities: Gold Breaks Through $4,600, Surging in Tandem with BTC
This week, the commodities market strengthened overall, driven by the geopolitical stalemate between the US and Iran and the "weak dollar trade." Crude oil continued its upward trend, while precious metals surged collectively.
Crude Oil: The geopolitical stalemate persists, with oil prices rising for six consecutive weeks. After the US-Iran ceasefire agreement expired, the US refused to extend it. Traffic through the Strait of Hormuz remained low, and Emirati vessels were attacked in the strait, leading to a concentrated release of geopolitical risks. For the week ending August 21, Brent crude closed at $94.39 per barrel, a weekly increase of 6.63%; WTI crude closed at $87.06 per barrel, with a weekly gain of approximately 5.2%-5.7%. Brent briefly rose to $94.81 during the session, approaching the $100 mark. In its August monthly report, the IEA significantly raised its estimate of the global oil supply deficit for the third quarter from 800,000 barrels per day to 1.8 million barrels per day, further reinforcing the bullish logic.
Gold: Broke through $4,600, recording three consecutive weekly gains. This week, London spot gold successively broke through the integer thresholds of $4,400, $4,500, and $4,600. As of the close on August 22, it was quoted at $4,602-$4,608 per ounce, with a weekly increase of 5.18%. COMEX gold futures touched a high of $4,690 per ounce, representing a maximum rebound of over 16% from the July low. On the driving front, the US Treasury announced it would double the scale of long-term Treasury bond buybacks to $4 billion, exacerbating market concerns about the US dollar's creditworthiness and the fiscal deficit. Additionally, the ongoing US-Iran geopolitical stalemate has continued to push up risk-aversion sentiment, leading to a significant increase in demand for gold call options.
Silver: More elastic than gold, outperforming in gains. Silver moves in sync with gold but with larger gains. COMEX silver rose 6.46% weekly to $69.010/oz, while spot silver rose 6.56% weekly, hitting an intraday high of $70.015/oz. The gold-to-silver ratio dropped to 67.55. Driven by rising industrial demand for silver, rate cut expectations, and tight fundamental supply and demand, its performance is stronger than that of gold.
Asset | Weekly Performance | Key Events | On-Chain Mapping |
WTI Crude Oil | $85 – $87/barrel | US-Iran stalemate continues, six consecutive weeks of gains | |
Brent Crude Oil | $92 – $95/barrel | IEA raises supply deficit forecast to 1.8 million barrels/day | |
Gold | $4,400 – $4,690/oz | "USD depreciation trade" + geopolitical safe-haven demand, up 5.18% weekly | |
Silver | $63 – $70/oz | More elastic than gold, gold-to-silver ratio drops to 67.55 |
2.3 Bond Market: 30-year yield hits 5.337%, a 19-year high; Treasury's "buyback rescue" proves short-lived
The core theme of the bond market this week was the surge in the 30-year US Treasury yield to its highest level since 2007, and the "short-lived" nature of the US Treasury's emergency intervention.
Treasury urgently "rescues the market," yields briefly plunge. On August 19, the US Treasury announced that it would raise the cap on single liquidity repurchase operations for 10-20 year and 20-30 year tenors from $2 billion to at least $4 billion, with the new arrangement effective from September 9. Following the announcement, the 30-year US Treasury yield fell from 5.28% to 5.19%, marking its largest single-day drop in months; the 10-year yield retreated to 4.65%. The Federal Reserve's July meeting minutes released on the same day were generally hawkish, with "many participants" believing that further policy tightening might be necessary if inflation does not decline.
Intervention effects are short-lived, yields rebound quickly. On August 20-21, the market determined that the Treasury's structural contradictions had not been resolved, and long-term bonds returned to sell-off mode. The 10-year US Treasury yield rose back to 4.74%, higher than the level before the Treasury announced the increased repurchases; the 30-year yield rebounded to 5.27%, almost fully recovering the losses from August 19.
For the week as a whole, the 10-year and 2-year US Treasury yields rose by 4 and 7 basis points respectively to 4.73% and 4.24%. The 30-year US Treasury yield briefly touched 5.337% during trading, hitting its highest level since 2007, and remained above 5.2% for the entire week.
From the perspective of yield composition, the 10-year US Treasury yield rose from 4.65% to 4.74%, with the real yield increasing from 2.35% to 2.40%, and the ACM term premium rising from 0.77% to 0.82%. This indicates that the liquidity improvement brought by the Treasury's expanded buybacks has only alleviated market pressure on a temporary basis.
Market focus shifts to Jackson Hole. The market is closely watching the Jackson Hole Global Central Bankers Symposium held from Aug 27-29, where Federal Reserve Chair Walsh will deliver his first keynote speech since taking office. Bank of America warns that if Walsh avoids making policy statements, the 30-year US Treasury yield may test the high of 5.5%.
MEXC's tokenized US Treasury product TLTON/USDT (corresponding to TLT ETF) provides users with a convenient channel to trade expectations for long-end US Treasury yields. The recent net asset value of TLT ETF is approximately $84, with a 30-day SEC Yield Rate of 5.03%. International ETF token trading pairs such as EEMON/USDT, EFAON/USDT, and INDAON/USDT have also been listed on the platform.
3. In-depth Analysis of Key Themes
Theme 1: Restart of "USD Depreciation Trade" — The Core Narrative Behind the Synchronous Surge in BTC and Gold
This week, Bitcoin surged from $64,000 to over $80,000, driven by the full return of the "currency debasement trade" narrative.
Policy signals from the Treasury Department served as a key catalyst. On August 19, the U.S. Treasury announced that it would increase the maximum size of its liquidity-supporting repo operations for 10- to 20-year and 20- to 30-year long-term Treasury bonds from $2 billion per operation to "no less than $4 billion." These adjustments will be implemented from September 9 to November 4. Stephen Coltman, Head of Macro at 21Shares, stated that this repo program is the "primary catalyst" behind Bitcoin's sharp rise.
The logic chain of the "currency debasement trade" is clear: Against the backdrop of persistent fiscal deficits (with U.S. national debt exceeding $40 trillion) and inflation potentially eroding the purchasing power of the U.S. dollar, investors are buying precious metals like gold and silver, as well as crypto assets with limited supply such as Bitcoin. The market fears that if the government intervenes to suppress long-term Treasury yields, it could further loosen financial conditions, exacerbate inflationary pressures, and thereby reduce the appeal of the U.S. dollar. Data shows that the U.S. Dollar Index weakened significantly after the U.S. Treasury announced the expansion of its repo operations.
The simultaneous rise of BTC and gold confirms the same narrative. Gold broke through $4,600 per ounce, while Bitcoin rose more than 23% for the week, with both surging in tandem. The synchronized increase in Bitcoin, gold, and other commodities, coupled with the continued weakening of the U.S. dollar, is a typical signal of the "currency debasement trade." Due to its capped total supply (21 million coins), Bitcoin is increasingly being viewed by some investors as a tool to hedge against a weakening U.S. dollar.
Markets remain divided on this issue. Some analysts argue that the Treasury's buyback operations have not addressed the fundamental issues of US debt and inflation. Once the short squeeze subsides, Bitcoin will still face tests from new capital inflows and Federal Reserve policies. The next key observation window is the Jackson Hole Global Central Bank Annual Meeting from Aug 27-29, where Fed Chair Walsh will deliver his first keynote speech since taking office, potentially releasing key policy signals.
Theme 2: ETFs Attract $1.92 Billion in a Single Week—Structural Return of Institutional Demand
In the third week of August, Bitcoin spot ETFs delivered a performance that caught the Market's attention.
Data Highlights: For the week ending August 22, the 13 Bitcoin spot ETFs listed in the US recorded a combined net inflow of $1.92 billion, marking the highest level since early October last year. All five trading days saw positive inflows, representing the strongest weekly performance in approximately ten months. On August 21 alone, the net inflow was approximately $307 million. BlackRock's IBIT saw capital inflows for five consecutive trading days. Ethereum spot ETFs also recorded a net inflow of approximately $700 million during the same period.
August has seen a cumulative net transfer-in of $2.38 billion, making it one of the strongest months this year. Weekly trading volume for Bitcoin ETFs surged from $6.9 billion the previous week to $22.15 billion, an increase of over 219%.
The "holding revaluation effect" is significant. Notably, the total asset size of two types of ETFs increased by approximately $23 billion within a week, but the new net transfer-in was only about $2.6 billion—meaning that approximately 88.7% of the asset expansion came from price increases (holding revaluation effect) rather than new capital injections.
Institutional and retail sentiment heated up simultaneously. The Crypto Fear & Greed Index rose from 40 (Fear) to 83 (Extreme Greed) in six days. A senior sales trader at market maker QCP Group stated, "After such a rapid rise, some consolidation or pullback is not surprising, but with demand remaining strong, the timing and depth of the pullback are difficult to predict."
Theme Three: Epic Short Squeeze—$2.7 Billion in Shorts Wiped Out
The derivatives market played a key role as an "accelerator" in this rally.
On August 19, the crypto market experienced the largest short squeeze in history. Data from CoinGlass shows that forced liquidations of short positions in the crypto market reached $2.75 billion on that day, with Bitcoin short squeezes accounting for $1.67 billion and Ethereum for $1.14 billion. Overall, total forced liquidations across the market amounted to approximately $3 billion, with short position liquidations at around $2.739 billion and long position liquidations at only about $248 million. A total of 172,202 traders were forcibly liquidated.
The transmission mechanism of the short squeeze is clear: On August 19, Bitcoin bottomed out at around $64,166. After the U.S. Treasury announced an expansion of buybacks, Bitcoin surged more than 7% to above $69,000 on the same day. Subsequently, short positions were massively forced into liquidation—over $1 billion worth of Bitcoin short positions were liquidated within just one hour—triggering a continuous influx of buy orders into the market, which further accelerated the price upward. On August 21, Bitcoin skyrocketed from around $73,028 to $79,520; on August 24-25, Bitcoin broke through the $80,000 integer barrier, reaching a high of $81,270.
Following the short squeeze, market focus has shifted to fundamentals. Analysis from Huobi Research Institute points out that this is an "epic short squeeze." However, analysts remain divided on whether this rally signals the end of the bear market. Bulls argue that short squeezes, large bullish candles, and breakouts of key technical levels are often signals of a market bottom; while the cautious note that Bitcoin needs sustained ETF inflows and a looser monetary environment to maintain upward momentum.
