Bitcoin news for August 14, 2026
Bitcoin slipped to $62.5K after hovering near $64K, as cool U.S. PPI data failed to trigger gains and Bitcoin ETFs saw their first two-day drawdown in August. A reported wall of 1.79 million BTC just above $65K is seen as a key barrier, while Fidelity pulled $46.8M from its FBTC fund.

Regulatory headlines included the SEC abruptly pulling a Friday crypto rules meeting and the CLARITY Act catalyst moving to September 15. ETF flows saw Fidelity pull $46.8M from FBTC, while JPMorgan expanded its crypto-related holdings.
