Bitcoin (CRYPTO: $BTC) managed to eke out a small 3% gain over the past week despite plenty of volatility in financial markets. Crypto, and the broader stock market, were roiled in recent days as yields on U.S. Treasurys hit their highest levels in 20 years. However, Bitcoin has managed to keep the rally that began at the end of August going.
BTC was trading at just under $84,000 U.S. late on Sept. 25. Since the end of August, Bitcoin’s price has risen 30%. Other digital assets were also in the green to end the week, with Ethereum (CRYPTO: $ETH) and Solana (CRYPTO: $SOL) each up about 2% over the previous 24 hours. Analysts say Bitcoin needs to remain above $80,000 U.S. for a sustained bull run to continue.
Crypto was getting some relief heading into the weekend as the yield on the benchmark 10-year Treasury held firm at 5.20% after steadily climbing in recent days. Oil prices were also in retreat on hopes for renewed peace talks between the U.S. and Iran. Brent crude, the international standard, was down 2% and trading at $104.75 U.S. per barrel.

Bitcoin ETF Flows Turn Positive: Capital flows into Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) have turned positive for the year after erasing a $5.8 billion U.S. deficit. In a matter of weeks, investors have poured billions of dollars into U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs, turning a big deficit into $800 million U.S. of net inflows, according to data from SoSoValue. As recently as July 13, about a dozen U.S. Bitcoin ETFs were down a combined $5.8 billion U.S. for the year. While the reversal is positive, the $800 million U.S. of net inflows for this year is much smaller than the $35.2 billion U.S. that was seen in 2024, and $21.4 billion U.S. achieved in 2025.
