Bitcoin Hits 7-Month High as FOMO Peaks, but Two Signals Flash Caution

  • —Intraday high of $87,395, the highest since Jan. 29, up 4.9% in 24 hours
  • —$746.6 million liquidated in 24 hours, with $647.9 million from shorts
  • —Spot BTC ETFs absorbed $999 million on Sept. 21, the most since Oct. 6, 2025
  • —Fear & Greed Index climbed to 78 while Coinbase Premium stays negative at -0.028
Why it matters: The rally rests on a short squeeze and retail FOMO rather than US spot demand, leaving its durability in question.
