Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent pivoted from his earlier comments that the US would not acquire BTC for its Strategic Bitcoin Reserve. While initially commenting on Tuesday that the government will use confiscated Bitcoin for the reserve and will not be liquidating it, he walked back the statement later that same day, noting that the Treasury will be exploring ways to buy more BTC. Scott said on CNBC earlier today that the U.S. government would not be buying more BTC, and then he drops this tweet claiming they’ll “continue to explore budget-neutral ways”?

The price currently stands above $119,000. That said, $116,300 stands as “the daily bull–bear pivot.” Per heatmaps, $119,625 is a “magnet level,” with upper supply concentrated at $124,600–$126,800, the analysts argue. “Under policy noise, the market remains in range-trading mode.” They continue: “In the short term, sustained acceptance above $119,625 could open tests of the $120,800 and $124,600 liquidation zones; repeated rejection may shift the focus back toward $117,900 and $115,000.” Per Kyle Chassé, Founder of MV Global, BTC’s recent rally is “a testament to its evolving role in the global financial landscape and recent legislative developments.” It has moved beyond a speculative asset, with record-high global debt and mounting pressure on fiat currencies. “This trend is amplified by its powerful network effect, which is fundamentally absent from traditional assets. As prominent institutions and figures invest, their financial stake is tied to bitcoin’s success, turning them into natural advocates who drive a self-reinforcing cycle of education and adoption,” the founder says, and continues: “Regulatory clarity has also added to the tailwinds, with more institutional capital flowing in—much of which was missing last cycle. The demand is here, and I expect to see bitcoin surpass $250,000 by the end of the year.” Gadi Chait, Head of Investment at Xapo Bank, commented on institutional demand, saying that it remains present, as shown by the broader trends, and despite specific daily ETF flow data varying by source. “Digital asset investment products have seen significant activity throughout 2025, with year-to-date flows remaining strong compared to the same period in 2024,” Chait writes. Levels & Events to Watch Next At the time of writing on Thursday morning, BTC trades at $119,043. The charts show a clear drop from the intraday high of $121,967 to the intraday low of $117,603. Despite falling to the $117,000 level several times throughout the day, the price did manage to break through $118,000 and $119,000, recuperating in this range and holding it for now. While the price may drop further to the $116,600 territory, followed by $115,000, it may conversely climb back over $120,000 in an attempt to reach its latest all-time high of $124,128, followed by $124,600.

They noted a potential for a broader rally as September nears, with ETH set to benefit from it significantly.

Meanwhile, the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has pushed back its review period for two Solana ETF filings to 16 October, originally set for 17 August. The delay allows “sufficient time to consider” the proposals from Bitwise and 21Shares, the regulator argued.
