On August 21, Fidelity Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund rose 5.12% in pre-market trading, trading at $66.73/share, with turnover of $137,400.
The rally follows a broader Bitcoin surge of approximately 12%, triggered by multiple catalysts. President Trump met with executives from Coinbase, Payward, and Blockchain.com at the White House, urging Congress to pass the CLARITY Act to establish a crypto-friendly regulatory framework. Trump also indicated he would consider recommendations for additional government Bitcoin purchases. Simultaneously, Treasury Secretary Bessent announced at least doubling liquidity buyback operations for 10-to-30-year Treasuries, pushing yields and the dollar lower and creating a favorable macro backdrop for risk assets.
The policy catalysts collided with a crowded short positioning structure, triggering over $8.41 billion in liquidations within 24 hours, with $6.71 billion from short positions alone. On August 19, US spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded $517.19 million in net inflows, the highest single-day figure since May 4. IBIT options volume reached 3.6 times its daily average, while institutional Bitcoin holdings rose 7.5% quarter-over-quarter to approximately 536,000 BTC.
