Risk appetite returned to crypto this week with every major asset posting gains. $BTC reclaimed $80,900 after Fed rate pause signals, while total market cap climbed to $2.73T with $BTC dominance at 59.3%.
$XRP leads the board at +6.38%, followed closely by $ETH at +5.00% and $BNB at +4.84%. $SOL rounds out the group at +3.51%, holding above $103. The broad-based move suggests capital rotating back into majors rather than a single-asset story.
August closed as Bitcoin's strongest month of 2026 with roughly $3 billion in spot ETF inflows. September opens with the CLARITY Act cloture vote on the 15th and a Fed meeting later in the month.
