Bitcoin trades near $79,300 on Monday, 7 September 2026, after failing to hold a break above $81,400 over the weekend and slipping as U.S. equity futures rose on the Labor Day holiday. Spot bitcoin ETFs still absorbed $986.9 million in the week ended 4 September — the third straight inflow week, led by BlackRock’s IBIT at $691.5 million — so the tape is split between persistent institutional bid and a hawkish macro overlay.

Bitcoin’s Spot Demand Flips Positive, What History Says Comes Next

Bitcoin’s Spot Demand Flips Positive: What History Says Comes Next

On July 23, Bitcoin’s 30-day apparent spot demand sat at roughly –206,000 BTC. That is not a soft reading. It means the market was absorbing far less coin than miners were issuing and old holders were reactivating. Price was stuck in the low $60,000s. The tape felt empty.
