Bitcoin

24h change: -2.31%. From $85,979.17 to $83,994.00.

• Oil prices climbed after reports of stepped-up Iranian attacks on tankers in the Strait of Hormuz. This pushed the US dollar and Treasury yields higher, pressuring risk assets including bitcoin which briefly traded as low as $83,840. The move triggered over $400 million in long liquidations during a rapid 20-minute drop of nearly $2,000. Traders are monitoring upcoming Federal Reserve meeting minutes and key support levels near $82,500 to $83,000.
• Wallets linked to the US government transferred 834 bitcoin worth approximately $71 million and additional BNB totaling over $100 million. The bitcoin originated from Bitfinex hack forfeitures and other seized assets and was sent to Coinbase Prime deposit addresses. Officials have not confirmed any sale, and policy directs forfeited bitcoin toward a strategic reserve rather than immediate liquidation. The government continues to hold more than 320,000 bitcoin valued at roughly $27.7 billion.
• Robinhood purchased $25 million worth of bitcoin as it continues to deepen its commitment to crypto. The move comes as the company signals long-term belief in the asset amid current market volatility. It aligns with broader institutional interest even as retail and leveraged traders navigate recent price swings. This adds to examples of companies incorporating bitcoin into their treasury strategy.

24h change: -0.08%. From $84,935.50 to $84,871.00.

• Bitcoin advanced toward $87,000 before facing resistance and reversing to trade near $84,800. The move triggered substantial long liquidations exceeding $300 million within 24 hours as leveraged positions were reset. Traders are monitoring support levels near recent range lows around $82,500 while $87,000 remains key resistance. This volatility occurred alongside elevated trading volumes and mixed ETF flows.
• U.S. nonfarm payrolls rose by only 29,000 in September with unemployment climbing to 4.2 percent, missing economist forecasts. This softer data has increased bets that the Federal Reserve will hold rates steady at its October meeting. Market participants view the development as supportive for risk assets including Bitcoin in the near term. October has historically been a strong seasonal period for cryptocurrency performance.
• The SEC has proposed amendments to custody rules for registered investment advisers and regulated funds. The changes would permit limited self-custody of crypto assets when qualified third-party custodians are unavailable and formally recognize state trust companies as custodians. The proposal includes safeguards such as quarterly reviews and enhanced policies for private key management. It enters a 60-day public comment period and aims to reduce barriers to institutional participation in digital assets.

24h change: +0.83%. From $84,389.18 to $85,089.00.

• The US added just 29,000 jobs in September, far below the roughly 90,000 forecast, while the unemployment rate increased to 4.2 percent. July figures were also revised lower. Traders responded by bidding up Bitcoin above $86,000 as odds of a Federal Reserve rate hike in October declined and Treasury yields eased.
• US spot Bitcoin ETFs attracted approximately $103 million in net inflows on the first trading day of the month. BlackRock's IBIT led with roughly $196 million. This follows strong quarterly inflows of $6.34 billion in Q3 and continues institutional demand for Bitcoin exposure through regulated products.
• The SEC released a proposal that would allow registered investment advisers and funds to self-custody crypto assets when no qualified custodian is available, subject to conditions including expertise, cybersecurity, and disclosures. It would also permit state-chartered trust companies to serve as custodians. The move aims to modernize rules and reduce regulatory uncertainty for digital assets.

24h change: -0.95%. From $84,432.77 to $83,631.00.

• U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs attracted $2.4 billion in net inflows during the week ending September 25, the largest weekly total since October 2025. This reversed earlier year-to-date deficits and pushed cumulative flows positive. Companies including Strategy continued corporate bitcoin accumulation with a purchase of 1,665 BTC. These flows demonstrate sustained institutional demand even as the price consolidates following recent highs near $87,000.
• Bitcoin declined toward $83,000 after President Trump rejected Iran's seven-day ceasefire proposal, pushing oil prices above $100 per barrel. U.S. Treasury yields rose to multi-year highs, increasing expectations for additional Federal Reserve rate hikes. Traders are monitoring upcoming PCE inflation data and employment figures for further monetary policy signals that could influence risk assets.
• Bitcoin gained roughly 43.5 percent during the third quarter, rising from around $58,500 in early July. The period ranks as the second-strongest Q3 on record. Institutional demand, spot trading activity, and relatively restrained profit-taking helped the asset hold near $84,000 through quarterly options expiry despite macro pressures.

24h change: +0.36%. From $84,096.41 to $84,396.00.

• U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs attracted $2.4 billion in the week ending September 25, their largest weekly total since October 2025. This performance has reversed earlier deficits and pushed year-to-date net inflows above zero. BlackRock's IBIT led the charge while the broader streak of positive flows reflects sustained institutional demand. The development coincides with Bitcoin holding steady near recent highs.
• Bitcoin has held near $84,000 to $85,000 following a rally that took it briefly above $87,000 earlier in the week. The price action comes as the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield hit multi-year highs and expectations for a potential Federal Reserve rate hike in October increased. September gains remain strong, putting the quarter on track for one of its best performances on record. Spot trading activity has stayed elevated with relatively contained profit-taking.
• Strategy has added to its Bitcoin treasury, now holding approximately 846,000 BTC with significant unrealized gains at current prices. Other corporations including Metaplanet and MARA have also built positions. Michael Saylor has publicly advocated for greater bank involvement in Bitcoin custody and lending. This corporate demand has provided underlying support alongside ETF inflows.
