Strategy Shares Jump 10% as Bitcoin Rebound Hits Treasury Trade
Strategy shares rose 10% and MARA jumped 9% as Bitcoin's recovery aligns with Treasury trade movements. This follows Strategy Inc raising $2 billion to support its operations. Meanwhile, Bernstein analyst Gautam Chhugani forecasts Bitcoin will reach a new all-time high of $150,000 by mid-2027 and peak at $300,000 by 2029. The current price surge is supported by US Treasury bond buybacks and renewed Bitcoin ETF inflows, which have pushed the asset to a three-month high of $80,000 amid fears of currency debasement.

Bitcoin Surpasses $80,000 Amid Treasury Liquidity and Debasement Fears
Bitcoin reached a three-month high of $80,000, driven by a rally fueled by fears of currency debasement and a soft dollar. Market momentum is supported by returning Bitcoin ETF inflows and US Treasury bond buybacks that increase dollar liquidity. Strategy Inc has raised $2 billion as part of its operations. Analysts suggest these macroeconomic shifts, combined with Treasury actions, are accelerating the current price surge.
Why it matters
The rally coincides with a shift in US Treasury strategy regarding long-term bond buybacks. This environment creates a debasement trade where investors move toward Bitcoin as a hedge against dollar instability.
What is confirmed
- Bitcoin reached a three-month high of $80,000.
- Bitcoin ETF inflows have returned.
Still unconfirmed
- Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent could provide a $1 trillion boost to Bitcoin prices.
- Arthur Hayes claims Treasury bond buybacks will send Bitcoin soaring.
- Strategy Inc raised $2 billion.
