Bitcoin Soars to $85,000 on SEC Tokenized Stock Exemption
Bitcoin has rallied to approximately $85,100, up 5.7% in 24 hours and 9% over the week, driven by a new SEC 'Innovation Exemption' that permits trading of tokenized US stocks on specialized venues without traditional exchange registration. This exemption, valid for five years, allows platforms to list up to 75 large or 250 less-liquid stocks, with volume caps and requirements for public smart contracts on permissionless blockchains. The move is expected to boost blockchain networks like Ethereum, Solana, and Coinbase's Base, as well as DEXs such as Uniswap. Tokenization-related companies (Securitize, Bullish, Coinbase, Robinhood) saw stock gains. Bitcoin's surge was also attributed to a short squeeze, per BTSE COO Jeff Mei. Privacy coins like Zcash and Monero also posted significant gains, while NEAR's token rose on the growth of its NEAR Intents swap service, which facilitated a sixfold increase in Zcash's daily trading volume.
Bitcoin ETFs Turn Positive for 2026 With $2.4B Weekly Inflow
U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs have recorded their largest weekly inflows since October last year, taking in about $2.4 billion in net flows. This pushes the funds into positive territory for 2026, with year-to-date net inflows of approximately $934 million. BlackRock's IBIT led the way with $1.2 billion, followed by Fidelity's FBTC at $701.7 million and Ark/21Shares' ARKB at $294.7 million. The inflows come after a period of outflows triggered by the failure of the Clarity Act in the U.S. Senate. Analysts attribute the turnaround to the Treasury Department's plan to increase buybacks of long-dated bonds, which has driven $4.6 billion into Bitcoin ETFs since the announcement. Bitcoin is trading around $84,000, above the average ETF investor's cost basis of $81,722. Ether ETFs also saw recovery with $689.9 million in inflows, while Solana ETFs set a daily record on Friday with $86.7 million in inflows.
