Although the asset was stopped there at first and slipped below $75,500 last weekend, the bulls <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/these-four-signals-could-confirm-if-bitcoins-low-is-locked-in-analyst\/\">returned<\/a> during the business week.<\/p>\n<p>This time, they managed to push it beyond $80,000 and even $81,000 on a couple of occasions. The last attempt was on Thursday morning when BTC reached $81,500 for the first time in 15 weeks. However, its ascent was halted at this point, and it <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/btc-recovers-from-sub-77k-dip-xrp-drops-below-1-40-weekend-watch\/\">retraced<\/a> hard on Friday to under $77,000.<\/p>\n<p>This correction occurred after Kevin Warsh\u2019s first speech at Jackson Hole, in which he <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/why-bitcoin-crashed-after-warshs-jackson-hole-speech-and-what-happens-next\/\">maintained<\/a> a hawkish stance. Nevertheless, the cryptocurrency has managed to reclaim some ground since then, rising above $77,000 yesterday and up to $78,150 as of press time on Sunday morning.<\/p>\n<p>Its market capitalization has increased by roughly $15 billion in a day and is up to $1.570 trillion on CG. Its dominance over the alts is also on the rise, touching 58% on the same data aggregator.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1447183\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1447183\" style=\"width: 1835px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/BTCUSD-August-30.png\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1447183 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/BTCUSD-August-30.png\" alt=\"BTCUSD August 30.
