Bitcoin Reclaims 50-Week EMA as ETF Inflows Fuel Rally

Bitcoin’s 50-week exponential moving average is widely watched as a gauge of the cryptocurrency’s longer-term trend and a key dividing line between bullish and bearish momentum. Reclaiming the level for the first time since losing it in late 2025 strengthens the technical case that the current rebound is becoming more durable, though holding above the average will be critical to confirming a broader trend reversal.

As of Aug. 25, Bitcoin had climbed as high as $79,550, marking a fresh peak for the bear-market rebound, after spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds attracted $1.9 billion in net inflows over the week. The cryptocurrency also closed the weekly period above its 50-week EMA. Investors are now watching upcoming economic releases and signals from the central-bank symposium for clues on liquidity and risk appetite.
