Crypto Update Explodes as BTC Hits $77K and Pepeto Quietly Fills Before Anyone Notices

Every crypto update this week carries the same headline. Bitcoin ripped from $62,000 to above $77,000 in seven days, its strongest weekly move since early 2024, wiping out more than $3 billion in short positions, according to Bloomberg, while spot ETFs pulled $3.5 billion during August, the largest monthly inflow in over a year. CoinDesk reported futures open interest sank to a five month low as leveraged bears got flushed, leaving only spot buyers on the board.

While every crypto update focuses on whether BTC holds $77,300, $10.9 million has already filled Pepeto's (

) presale, and the largest addresses sitting at presale pricing are not watching headlines. They are positioning for the anticipated Binance listing.

A Single Week Rewrites the Entire Crypto Update for September

BTC gained 24.95% in August and ETH climbed 32.5%, according to CoinDesk, with both finishing at their strongest levels since the spring correction began. Spot Bitcoin ETFs ran nine straight days of net inflows before a $202 million outflow broke the streak, and BlackRock's IBIT captured $938 million of the final week.
