Bitcoin Breaks Record! Highest Monthly Close in 16-Year History! Here's All the Data
Bitcoin closed July at $115,768, marking its first monthly close at this level in its 16-year history. Although the world's largest cryptocurrency fell 2.34% in the last 24 hours, the close was a record.
Bitcoin Hits All-Time Monthly Close at $115,768
“Bitcoin closing this month at an all-time high isn’t just a headline; it’s a testament to the market’s resilience and maturation,” said Rachael Lucas, crypto analyst at BTC Markets.
Lucas noted that despite the large 80,000 BTC transfer to Galaxy Digital in July and the subsequent sell-off, the price remained stable. While this sell-off caused a brief 4% drop in Bitcoin, the market quickly absorbed the impact.
“This level of recovery shows that a strong buyer base has formed in the market that trusts Bitcoin,” Lucas said, emphasizing that Bitcoin remains resilient despite macroeconomic uncertainties during this period of increasing institutional interest.
On the other hand, LVRG Research Director Nick Ruck stated that investors can realize profits, and this will depend on the policies of the US Federal Reserve (Fed), Trump's possible tariffs and ETF fund flows.
Spot Bitcoin ETFs have experienced outflows in recent days, with the strong inflows of the first half of July seemingly giving way to weaker net flows. However, Ruck stated that the current decline is temporary and that he expects a recovery in August.
Lucas emphasized that Bitcoin is in a strong position in the long term: “Bitcoin is increasingly adopted as a scarce, decentralized asset, and its role in the global financial system is strengthening.”

Fed Voting Member Harker: Fighting Inflation Requires Faster, More Frequent Small Rate Adjustments, Be Vigilant Against Inflation Expectations Becoming Entrenched
Cleveland Federal Reserve President Loretta Mester believes that inflation pressures have spread beyond the energy sector, with AI investments and tariffs driving up costs. To prevent high inflation from becoming entrenched in the economy, she suggests that the Federal Reserve should consider smaller, quicker, and more frequent rate adjustments, rather than waiting for inflation pressures to accumulate and then taking larger actions. She did not explicitly support an interest rate hike in October, emphasizing policy transparency: explaining the response mechanism does not equate to committing to a specific rate path.
Will the US cancel 20-year Treasury bonds? BNP Paribas: It may trigger market panic; Citibank: Positioning 20-year bonds to outperform 10-year bonds
There are market rumors that the U.S. Treasury is considering cutting back or canceling the issuance of 20-year Treasury bonds, which were reinstated in 2020. The yield on 20-year bonds has long been higher than both 10-year and 30-year bonds, resulting in a "hump" in the yield curve and higher financing costs. The market is closely watching this Friday’s routine survey questionnaire, as well as whether a clear signal will be released in the quarterly refunding statement on November 4. Citi suggests positioning in advance, but BNP Paribas warns that such a move could be interpreted as a panic signal that policy tools have been exhausted.
