Persistent fiscal deficits, ballooning sovereign debt and rising geopolitical fragmentation are forcing investors to rethink what constitutes a safe-haven asset, and one digital asset executive says the answer increasingly includes both gold and Bitcoin.

Senators from both parties blocked a landmark digital asset market structure bill in a procedural vote, sending crypto stocks tumbling. The bill would have handed the CFTC the primary authority to regulate the digital assets industry, but failed to advance with a vote of 49-50.

Bitcoin (CRYPTO:BTC) spot ETFs attracted $3.8 billion in net inflows from August 18 to September 5, 2026, including $731 million on September 3, the biggest single-day inflow since January 14. Another $174.

Bitcoin faces key resistance near $82,800, but I am bullish with a 12-month target of $95,000 and a stop-loss at $74,000. ETF inflows hit $3.52 billion in August, signaling institutional macro hedging, not long-term adoption, and creating a thin, volatile float. September catalysts (the CLARITY Act cloture vote and FOMC decision) will be pivotal; a clean break above resistance on volume could drive BTC toward $88,250–$90,000.

Bitcoin rose above $80,000 to hit a more than three-month high on Tuesday as a soft U.S. dollar, in the wake of the moves by Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent to calm the bond market, revived momentum in the crypto sector.

Bill Miller IV, chief investment officer and chairman at Miller Value Partners, joins 'Closing Bell' to discuss the causes in Bitcoin's recent uptick and more.

Bitcoin was rising Monday near the $80,000 level that it last touched in May, after the cryptocurrency surged last week on the Treasury Department's plans to buy back longer-dated Treasurys.
