🟢 Digital Assets ETF (BITO) is trading 5.4% up in pre-market as Bitcoin moves above $72,000

BITO is trading at $10.34 with a +5.40% move in pre-market, driven by Bitcoin’s move above $72,000 on August 20, 2026.

• The rally triggered more than $3.2 billion in short liquidations and lifted crypto-linked ETFs.
• Momentum was supported by the U.S. Treasury’s expanded long-term bond buybacks and renewed optimism around the CLARITY Act.
• Broader equity futures are modestly higher, but cryptocurrency momentum is the primary driver of BITO’s pre-market strength.
