Headline: Michael Burry Opens Four New Positions — Two Longs, Two Shorts — Betting Against the AI Gold Rush Michael Burry, the investor made famous by The Big Short, had an active week in the markets, quietly entering positions across four names — two long and two short — after spotting range-bound price action. The self-made investor, whose net worth is estimated between $300 million and $500 million, picked up shares of veterinary medicine maker Zoetis Inc. (NYSE: ZTS) at $73.60 and South American e-commerce leader MercadoLibre Inc. (NASDAQ: MELI) at $1,850. Burry accumulated these stakes while both names were trading flat, signaling he views them as out-of-favor but fundamentally promising opportunities. ZTS has been choppy since a sharp, roughly 30% flash crash in May and has traded sideways for about three months; MELI was purchased after a roughly 5.6% pullback from $1,936, a level Burry apparently considers below fair value. At the same time, Burry took bearish positions against two high-profile tech names: Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) and Palantir (NASDAQ: PLTR). His short bets reflect a continuing skepticism about the AI boom — a theme he’s warned about for well over a year. Burry argues that runaway AI spending and massive capex among major tech firms (many exceeding $100 billion) have inflated expectations and created instability that could reset markets. What stands out is Burry’s balanced playbook: he stakes both long and short, accumulating during periods of stagnation and range-bound trading, rather than chasing momentum. For investors in crypto and other fast-moving markets, the move is a reminder that opportunities often present themselves in sideways markets as much as in rallies — and that hedged, conviction-driven positions can be a strategic way to navigate overheated themes like AI.

Bitcoin (BTC) had been trapped in a range between $61,500 and $65,000 for six consecutive weeks. Volatility had been treading multi-year lows and traders were prepared for the range to continue.

On Aug. 19, the entire setup collapsed in under an hour, and $1.74 billion in short positions were gone before most of the market had time to react.

That figure, $1.74 billion in crypto short liquidations over 24 hours, makes Aug. 19, 2026, the second-largest short liquidation event on record, surpassed only by the Oct. 10, 2025 crash which was $2.47 billion, according to CoinGlass.

Short positions represented roughly 92% of all liquidations. Traders who had bet against Bitcoin for six weeks were forced to buy it back at a loss, and that forced buying pushed the price higher, which triggered more liquidations, which pushed the price higher still.

On Aug. 20, Bitcoin surged 10% in 24 hours to surpass the $72,000 price mark.

What triggered it

The first catalyst came from Washington. The U.S. Treasury announced it would at least double its long-dated bond buyback operations, raising the maximum from $2 billion to $4 billion per operation.

The 30-year Treasury yield, which had spiked to 5.337%, its highest since 2007, pulled back sharply. Cheaper long-term money favors assets that pay no yield. Bitcoin was the first beneficiary.

The second catalyst arrived hours later. President Trump met with crypto executives from Coinbase, Payward, and Blockchain.com at the White House. He floated the possibility of the U.S. buying “sizable” amounts of Bitcoin and called for Congress to pass the CLARITY Act before the Sep. 15 deadline.

XRP News
$XRP has returned to the spotlight after a powerful rebound, with the token recently recording one of its strongest weekly performances since late 2024. Trading activity has increased sharply, while spot ETF demand and renewed on-chain activity have added momentum to the recovery. Recent data also showed that XRP's on-chain transfers are becoming increasingly concentrated during major London and New York market hours, highlighting growing activity around traditional financial trading periods. At the same time, Ripple's broader institutional expansion and improving U.S. regulatory sentiment remain important catalysts for the ecosystem. However, volatility is still extremely high, with a recent options trade specifically positioning for a major price move in either direction. Overall, ETF flows, institutional adoption, XRP Ledger activity, and the broader crypto market will remain the key factors shaping $XRP's next move.

‘Pretty Depressing’: Bitcoin Developer Laments Low Bitcoin Payment Adoption in El Salvador
The statements of a Bitcoin Core collaborator commenting on the state of bitcoin payments in El Salvador have awakened concerns about the low adoption level of bitcoin in the country, even as it has been globally promoted as the first bitcoin Country after passing the so-called bitcoin law in 2021.
Jon Atack, a Bitcoin Core contributor since 2019 who has been living in El Salvador since 2022 and was temporarily arrested last year, raised concerns among bitcoin proponents on social media when he shared his experience after paying with bitcoin in El Zonte, a Salvadoran region known as an adoption hotspot.

“Lunched in El Zonte (Bitcoin Beach) today. After I paid, they told me it was the first bitcoin payment there all month, going on to describe how before, they used to see many payments in bitcoin, and that now it’s practically non existent. Pretty depressing,” Atack declared.

He added that after asking about how most customers paid, he was told that almost all customers paid by card.

“I then asked if she wanted a tip in sats, but she had forgotten how to use her bitcoin app and didn’t really want any: ‘It’s dead,'” he said.

Atack stressed that this observation was anecdotal, but highlighted that the person had worked there for three years and had seen the evolution of payments in the zone.

Atack’s remarks awakened positive and negative reactions, with some even refuting his experience. Juan Galt, a bitcoin reporter, recognized that there was “an economics problem at hand and no one seems to be taking it seriously,” assessing that an altruistic behavior was needed for bitcoin payments to push a circular economy, but that, given the expectation of bitcoin going up in price, this behavior was “counter-economic” at its core.

At the same time, a user commented that she was back from the same region and paid with b

Greenlane Holdings’ BERA-focused crypto treasury ended the second quarter valued at $16.4 million, less than a quarter of its $70 million cost basis, according to a regulatory filing. 

On Friday, the company said it held 81.3 million BERA and BERA-equivalent tokens as of June 30. The $53.8 million gap between their cost and fair value left the portfolio 76.6% below cost.

Greenlane reported a $19.1 million noncash fair-value loss on digital assets during the quarter, contributing to a net loss of $24.8 million. Meanwhile, its digital asset segment generated $309,000 in staking and yield revenue over the same period. 

Greenlane Holdings is a Nasdaq-listed former cannabis accessories company that shifted to a digital asset treasury strategy centered on Berachain’s BERA token.

The company adopted BERA as its primary treasury reserve asset in October 2025, after completing a $110.7 million private placement. It increased its holdings from 77.7 million BERA and equivalent tokens at the end of March despite the declining valuation. 

BERA has fallen 75.9% year to date and was trading at about $0.146 at the time of writing, according to CoinGecko. The token briefly traded above $1.20 earlier this year before declining steadily toward $0.15.
