Crypto markets extended their sharp rebound on Aug. 20, with the total market capitalization climbing more than 5% to about $2.5 trillion as Bitcoin (BTC), Ether (ETH), and XRP moved higher.

Institutional demand also strengthened. U.S. spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) recorded about $517 million in net inflows on Aug. 19, their third consecutive day of positive flows.

The rally forced traders betting against crypto to unwind positions. More than $3 billion in crypto shorts were liquidated over a 24-hour period, with Bitcoin and Ether accounting for most of the short squeeze.

Sentiment improved alongside prices. The Crypto Fear & Greed Index turned from 46 or "Fear" a day earlier to 63 or "Greed" at press time.

Fellow miners Riot Platforms (RIOT) rose 8.36% to $20.98, while CleanSpark (CLSK) gained 7.97% to close at $12.60.
