PrimeXBT Insights: Bitcoin rallied through a rate | Crypto News
By Jonatan Randin, Senior Market Analyst at PrimeXBT
In mid September the setup seemed dangerous for Bitcoin. The CLARITY Act failed in the Senate on 15 September and the Fed hiked to 3.75 to 4.00% the next day. Bitcoin (BTC) briefly traded under $75,000. Per week later it was above $87,000.
Then the bond market moved, and Bitcoin stopped going up.
What occurred in bonds
On 23 September the ten 12 months US Treasury yield jumped more than 18 foundation factors, the largest sooner or later rise since April 2025. It stored going and rose above 5.2% the next day, the best since 2007. The 30 12 months reached about 5.50%, a degree last seen in 2004.
There was no single set off. Strong PMI data, a weak 5 12 months public sale and larger oil all performed a half. The Treasury even purchased back $4 billion of long bonds on 24 September, and yields still rose.
Why the hike didn’t matter a lot
Everyone noticed it coming. By the eve of the assembly, futures markets priced the hike at close to 90%. Some of Bitcoin’s weak point in the weeks before arguably mirrored that repricing.
ETF flows show it. Spot Bitcoin ETFs misplaced about $750 million over 15 and 16 September, then took in $2.39 billion in the week to 25 September, their largest week since October 2025 according to Farside Investors.
Why the bond transfer is different
Look at those flows day by day: $999 million on Monday, then $715 million, $347 million, $191 million and $135 million on Friday. The shopping for never stopped. It just obtained smaller as yields went up.
A hike is one choice with a recognized measurement. A bond selloff has no measurement, and the market decides how far it goes. Yields above 5% compete immediately with an asset that pays nothing.
There’s another means to read it. If the Treasury has to keep borrowing at larger charges, the deficit grows and so does the provision of bonds. Many in crypto see that as the long time period case for Bitcoin. For now, though, the short time period impact is the one exhibiting up in the flows.
So far Bitcoin is holding the transfer. It isn’t extending it.
What the chart says
On the three day chart, Bitcoin broke above the $70,000 area around 20 August. It then spent a few weeks consolidating close to $80,000 before breaking larger again last week.
That second breakout issues. It’s arguably the first larger high on the upper timeframes since the bear market started, and price reached above $87,000 before pulling back.

The transferring averages assist the same image. The 20 EMA has crossed above the 50 EMA on the three day chart for the first time since they crossed down in November 2025, which is roughly where the bear market began.
Price is now retracing the latest leg up. The next larger timeframe assist sits at $80,000, and the 50% Fibonacci retracement of the transfer from around $75,000 to $87,000 falls just above it, close to $81,000.
As long as Bitcoin holds the $80,000 space, the general construction might still be read as constructive. A sustained transfer back below it might put that larger high into query.
