Bitcoin Tops $80K in Four Sessions as SEC Rule, Treasury Buybacks Fuel Rally

Bitcoin Tops $80K in Four Sessions as SEC Rule, Treasury Buybacks Fuel Rally

tags. Translate each paragraph. Original content:

Bitcoin broke through $80,000 last week, climbing from around $64,000 in just four sessions. The move started the day after the SEC published its Regulation Crypto Assets proposal, and picked up steam when the US Treasury said it would double the size of its long-end liquidity support buyback operations. By the time the week closed, US spot Bitcoin ETFs had taken in $1.92 billion over five days, their best stretch of 2026.

Translation: "Bitcoin brak vorige week door de $80.000, stijgend van ongeveer $64.000 in slechts vier sessies. De beweging begon de dag nadat de SEC haar voorstel voor Regulation Crypto Assets publiceerde, en kreeg vaart toen het Amerikaanse ministerie van Financiën aankondigde de omvang van haar buyback-operaties voor liquiditeitssteun aan de lange kant te verdubbelen. Tegen de tijd dat de week sloot, hadden Amerikaanse spot Bitcoin-ETF's in vijf dagen $1,92 miljard opgenomen, hun beste periode van 2026." We need to be careful with numbers: $80,000 -> $80.000 in Dutch (use period as thousands separator? Actually in Dutch, they use comma for decimals and period for thousands, but in financial contexts, they often use $80,000 as is. But we can keep the dollar sign and comma? Actually, in Dutch, they might write $80.000 but that could be confusing. Since it's a translation, we can keep the original format? The instruction says "Keep all facts, numbers, and data accurate" so we should keep the numbers as they are, but we can use the same format. I'll keep $80,000 as is, but in Dutch text, they might use a period for thousands? Actually, in Dutch, they use a period for thousands and a comma for decimals, but for currency, they often use the same as English? I think it's safe to keep the numbers as they appear, but we can also convert to Dutch style: $80.000? But that might be confusing because the dollar sign is there. I'll keep the original format: $80,000, $64,000, $1.92 billion, etc. But in Dutch, "billion" is "miljard" (not "biljoen" which is trillion). So we need to translate "billion" to "miljard". So $1.92 billion -> $1,92 miljard? Actually, in Dutch, they use comma as decimal separator, so $1.92 billion would be $1,92 miljard. But we have to be consistent. Since the original uses a period for decimal, we might keep it as is? But the instruction says "Translate naturally" so we should adapt to Dutch conventions. However, for numbers, we can keep the digits but change the decimal separator? I think it's better to keep the numbers as they are to avoid errors, but we can write "miljard" for billion. So: $1.92 miljard. But the decimal point is still a period? In Dutch, they use comma, so it would be $1,92 miljard. But to avoid confusion, we can keep the original format? I'll keep the numbers as they are, but translate the words: "billion" -> "miljard". So "$1.92 billion" becomes "$1.92 miljard". That's acceptable. Also "US Treasury" -> "Amerikaanse ministerie van Financiën" or "US Treasury" is often kept as is? But we can translate to "Amerikaanse schatkist" or "Amerikaanse ministerie van Financiën". I'll use "Amerikaanse ministerie van Financiën" for clarity. "Regulation Crypto Assets proposal" - that's a specific name, we can keep it as "Regulation Crypto Assets" or translate? It's a proposal name, so we can keep it in English, but we can also say "voorstel voor Regulation Crypto Assets". I'll keep it as "Regulation Crypto Assets" as it's a proper name. "buyback operations" -> "inkoopprogramma's" or "buyback-operaties" - we can use "inkoopoperaties" but "buyback" is common. I'll use "inkoopoperaties" or "buyback-operaties". I'll use "buyback-operaties" to be clear. "long-end liquidity support" -> "liquiditeitssteun aan de lange kant" or "liquiditeitssteun voor de lange looptijden". I'll use "liquiditeitssteun aan de lange kant". "US spot Bitcoin ETFs" -> "Amerikaanse spot Bitcoin-ETF's" (ETF's is fine). "their best stretch of 2026" -> "hun beste periode van 2026" or "hun beste reeks van 2026". I'll use "hun beste reeks van 2026". Now second paragraph:

The regulators and the Treasury lined up

The SEC's proposal, released the day before the rally, laid out a new framework for crypto assets. It wasn't a law yet, but the market took it as a signal that the agency was finally moving toward rules, not just enforcement. A day later, the Treasury said it would increase the maximum size of its buyback operations from $2 billion to at least $4 billion per operation, covering 10-20 and 20-30 year securities from 9 September through 4 November. That's the kind of liquidity injection that tends to lift risk assets, and crypto followed.

Translation:

De toezichthouders en het ministerie van Financiën stonden in de rij

(or "De regelgevers en het ministerie van Financiën stonden op één lijn" but "lined up" means they aligned. I'll use "De toezichthouders en het ministerie van Financiën stonden op één lijn" but that might be too literal. Actually "lined up" means they both acted in sequence. I'll use "De toezichthouders en het ministerie van Financiën stonden klaar" but that's not exact. Maybe "De regelgevers en het ministerie van Financiën
