The Senate blocked the CLARITY Act. The Fed raised rates. And Bitcoin still jumped nearly 6% to top $81,000, with Coinbase, Strategy, and Robinhood posting even bigger gains. The real catalyst was a quiet SEC move that opened a 5-year door to tokenized stock trading. Now comes the real test: can crypto stocks hold their gains when Monday's opening bell catches up to Bitcoin's weekend?

Bitcoin posted its biggest day since March, climbing roughly 11% to near $71,800 — but the catalyst wasn't crypto news. It was a Treasury Department announcement doubling long-term bond buybacks, which pulled the 30-year yield down to 5.2% and triggered a record $1 billion short squeeze. Ethereum ran even harder, up 19%. Here's the mechanism behind the move, why Fed minutes and $94 oil complicate the story, and the single earnings report that resolves it.

Bitcoin reclaimed $63,000 in a sharp weekend reversal fueled by a short squeeze, while XRP broke above $1.14 on strong volume. Ethereum and Solana held steady as the broader market showed signs of life after June's pullback. Here's the full breakdown of what's moving and what to watch next.

Bitcoin pushed above $61,000 as a short squeeze liquidated over $280 million and U.S. Bitcoin ETFs snapped a painful 10-day outflow streak. Ethereum, Solana, and XRP joined the rally, while Securitize made history tokenizing $295 million in stock on its first day as a public company. Here's what moved the market today.

Bitcoin briefly topped $81,000 in the past 24 hours, fueled by over $370M in short liquidations, accelerating ETF demand, and meaningful regulatory progress on stablecoin legislation. With Western Union going live on Solana and institutions like Hut 8 and Strive expanding their Bitcoin exposure, the market is sending a clear signal. Here's the full breakdown — and what it could mean for the week ahead.

Bitcoin vaulted to $72,700, Ethereum climbed 5%, XRP jumped nearly 5%, and $427 million in short positions were wiped out in a single day — all triggered by one geopolitical headline. Here's the full breakdown of every move that mattered.
