Bitcoin surged 25% from $64,000 to $78,500 after a Treasury tweak. Here’s why

Bitcoin rose 25% from $64,000 to $78,500 after a Treasury tweak, marking its largest surge since March. The rally is driven by a combination of institutional demand, short covering, and progress on the Clarity Act. Additional momentum stems from investor optimism and concerns over currency debasement as U.S. debt reaches $40 trillion. While Bitcoin has surpassed $75,000 for the first time since May, some market attention is shifting toward the coin Hyperliquid.
