- Bitcoin ETFs attract $1.08 billion in 3 days but it may not be enough for a steep rally
U.S.-listed spot bitcoin ETFs drew more than $1 billion in investor money this week, according to SoSoValue, a sign of renewed but still tentative institutional demand. Bitcoin's three steep rallies since January 2024 coincided with average daily ETF inflows above $200 million, while the pace since July 1 has been about $86 million a day, with no single day of $1 billion or more. Since July 1, bitcoin has risen 39%, from about $60,000 to $83,500. Analysts say a sustained rally would likely need steadier inflows, although futures trading and direct spot purchases can also push prices higher.
- Bitcoin Price Analysis: Recent Buyers Break Even Near $87,700. Could Their Selling Stop BTC’s Rally?
Glassnode data puts the average cost basis of recent Bitcoin buyers at about $87,700, and many may sell once the price returns there. As of October 21, 2026, Bitcoin traded at $83,495, up 2.5% over the day, which puts potential selling pressure about 5% above the current price. Bitcoin has failed below the $87,700 area three times, peaking at $87,397, $87,283 and $87,249 and closing lower each time, even though it rallied 27.7% over the last 90 days. The article notes that an average hides a wide price range and that much trading happens off-chain, while spot ETF inflows swung from $526.6 million on October 19 to $23.2 million on October 20. K33 notes 28-day volatility has fallen to 1.2%, and Bitcoin remains above its 50-day moving average of $81,567.
- Bitcoin ETFs Post Their Best Day in Nearly a Month as BlackRock Does All the Buying
U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs drew $526.7 million on Oct. 19, their largest single-day inflow since $714.7 million on Sept. 22, ending two weeks of selling that shed about $910 million. BlackRock's IBIT took in $665.2 million, while Fidelity's FBTC lost $83.6 million and Grayscale's GBTC lost $54.9 million, cutting October's net outflows to roughly $88 million from about $615 million. Ethereum ETFs lost $103 million and Solana ETFs $6.7 million the same day, while Bitcoin hovered near $82,000, close to the $82,300 average cost basis estimated for ETF holders. The article links the broader pressure to expected Federal Reserve rate hikes, citing a 3.7% CPI rise over 12 months, a 20.4% jump in energy prices, and a 10-year Treasury yield above 5% that competes with yield-free Bitcoin.
- Equity weakness could damp demand for bitcoin after biggest ETF inflows in a month
Bitcoin fell about 1.1%, ether dropped 1.7% and the CoinDesk 20 index lost roughly 1.6% over the past 24 hours, pulled lower by Asian stock declines and rising oil. QCP Capital warned that further equity weakness could damp crypto demand and threaten the $80,000 support level if sustained. Still, spot U.S. bitcoin ETFs drew about $527 million in net inflows on Monday, their biggest in a month, with BlackRock's IBIT taking in $665 million while Fidelity and Grayscale saw outflows. Ether ETFs lost $103.3 million, their fourth straight day of outflows. The 10-year Treasury yield is near 5.13% and Brent is near $110, while prediction markets price in a 25 basis-point Fed rate hike next month.
- US Bitcoin ETFs draw $527M in biggest showing since September
US spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded $526.7 million in net inflows on Monday, their largest daily intake in nearly a month and the strongest since Sept. 22, after two weeks of net weekly withdrawals. BlackRock's IBIT led with $665.2 million in inflows, offsetting $83.6 million in withdrawals from Fidelity's FBTC and $54.9 million from Grayscale's GBTC, while other funds recorded no net flows. Despite the rebound, spot Bitcoin ETFs remain about $88 million negative for October. Spot Ether ETFs saw $103.3 million in net outflows on Monday, led by $95.4 million from BlackRock's ETHA, marking their third consecutive week of net withdrawals.
- U . S . Spot Bitcoin ETFs Lost About $910 Million in Two Weeks as October Flows Turned Negative :
U.S. spot bitcoin ETFs posted net outflows of $228.6 million in the week ended October 16, following a $681.1 million drain the week before, bringing two-week redemptions to roughly $910 million. October has turned negative, with the funds down about $615 million for the month after opening with roughly $293 million in inflows. Wednesday's selling coincided with a September CPI reading of 3.7%, above the 3.6% forecast, which revived bets on further Federal Reserve rate increases. Bitcoin briefly fell below $80,000, nearly $950 million in leveraged crypto positions were liquidated over 24 hours, and the asset closed Friday near $81,590. Even so, cumulative net inflows since the January 2024 launch remain $57.3 billion, with total net assets of about $104 billion.

- National Assembly Deputy Nguyễn Việt Hà: Homebuyers Must Not Lose the Protection of Bank Guarantees
National Assembly Deputy Nguyễn Việt Hà (Tuyên Quang delegation) commented on the draft amended Law on Real Estate Business, asking for stronger protections for buyers of off-plan homes. He warned that the right to refuse a bank guarantee (Article 20, clause 3) could shift risk to buyers, and proposed barring waivers where a guarantee is mandatory; if the right is kept, refusal should be a separate, voluntary written confirmation given after full disclosure. He also proposed paying the remaining 5% (Article 20, clause 1, point b) upon receipt of the land-use right certificate, since buyers who have paid 95% of the contract value are unlikely to walk away. He further asked for clearer rules on deposit handling under 'the signed agreement' (Article 18, clause 6) so that such agreements comply with law, and commented on developers' obligations when transferring projects (Article 32, clause 1, point e).

Canada's S&P/TSX 60 index futures fell 0.6% as oil prices surged and worries grew over AI investment, following earnings from Meta and Tesla. The S&P/TSX composite had closed up 0.6% at 36,324.99 points, its highest close since September 22. U.S. futures fell 1.0% for the S&P 500 and 1.7% for the Nasdaq 100 after the prior session's gains, which were lifted by strong results from SpaceX and Super Micro Computer. Meta reported higher-than-expected third-quarter revenue and guided current-quarter revenue to $73–76 billion, narrowing its capex forecast to $135–145 billion; Tesla cut its goal for annual sales to 5 million units by the end of the decade. Brent crude rose 3.0% to $112.08 a barrel on fears that U.S.–Iran fighting could flare up again.
- Tajiri Completes IP Survey at Yono Gold Project, Begins Shopping Drill Contract
Tajiri Resources (TSXV: TAJ) completed an expanded 3-D induced polarization (IP) survey at its Yono Gold Project in Guyana, including 50-metre infill lines to refine targets. The survey is the last major exploration step before its inaugural drill program, with processed results expected within two to three weeks, and the company has begun soliciting bids from drill service providers. Earlier trenches returned 32 metres at 1.1 g/t gold (YTR-3) and 19 metres at 4.6 g/t gold (YTR-4), including 2 metres at 41.3 g/t. Yono sits about 200 metres from planned open pits at the Oko West and Ghanie deposits, and Tajiri describes the coming drilling as a pivotal milestone.
- Walker River Announces Significant Gold Intercepts Including 2.07 g/t Au over 47.25 Metres at the Lapon Canyon Gold Project
Walker River Resources (TSXV: WRR) reported further assay results from its 2026 reverse circulation drilling at the Lapon Canyon area of the Lapon Gold Project in Nevada. Highlights include hole LC-26-175 with 2.07 g/t gold over 47.25 m (including 3.07 g/t over 30.48 m), LC-26-179 with 2.02 g/t over 48.77 m, and LC-26-183 with 3.63 g/t over 12.19 m. Some holes were affected by drilling conditions, with LC-26-186 stopped at 64.01 m due to ground conditions. Gold mineralization was also found in monzonite intrusive rocks, raising the possibility of a broader intrusive-related system, and elevated copper values provide an additional exploration vector, though further mapping, geochemistry and drilling are needed.
