Bitcoin trades near $83,450 after briefly touching $84,000 in early European trading, having rebounded from a low of $80,970 on Tuesday. Altcoins lagged, with the CoinDesk 80 down 0.6% since midnight UTC and DeFi the weakest sector. Traders await U.S. CPI data, expected to show inflation rising to 3.6% from 3.4%, after New York Fed President John Williams said no rate increases were needed in 2027. Crypto futures volume fell 26% to $156.79 billion over 24 hours, and liquidations dropped more than 80% to $136.32 million, pointing to less leverage. Open interest in ZEC rose over 4%, while Optimism fell 4.2% after rallying to its highest since mid-May.

- Morning Minute: Crypto Rebounds as 'Black Monday' Looms
Bitcoin is at $82,161, down 1.4% on the week and up about 1% over the last 30 days, while most other major cryptocurrencies fell harder: Ethereum dropped 5.3% to $2,415, Solana 6.2%, XRP 7.2%, Dogecoin 9.4%, and majors outside Bitcoin averaged a 7.5% decline. Smaller tokens fell further, with Starknet down 45% and LayerZero down 24%, and the top weekly losers averaged losses above 20%. Spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded $228.4 million in net outflows for the week and Ethereum ETFs $320.1 million, bringing combined October outflows to $1.86 billion. The article notes that unlike equities, crypto has no circuit breakers to halt selling, but the current slide is a slow, orderly bleed rather than a cascade.
- Strategy on verge of golden cross, just weeks after bitcoin flashed same bullish signal
Strategy (MSTR) is about to form a golden cross, when its 50-day average rises above its 200-day average, possibly as early as Monday, just weeks after bitcoin showed the same bullish signal. The company holds $69.81 billion in bitcoin, and its stock has had two earlier golden crosses followed by big rallies: from $15.57 in September 2020 to $127.29 by February 2021, a 717% gain, and from $25.29 on March 2, 2023 to a peak of $473.83 in November 2024, up 1,774%. The article stresses the signal is unreliable, though: since 1999 MSTR has had 19 golden crosses, and only 10 were followed by a higher price 12 months later, a 50% hit rate, with a median 12-month return of just 3.3%. The two worst cases, in 2001 and 2007, were followed by a 61% loss.
- Live updates: Bitcoin tags $83,000 and slips back as chip stocks lead a rebound
Bitcoin climbed from an overnight low near $80,700 to just above $83,000 early Monday, then slipped back to about $82,400 as sellers stepped in, and was up 0.3% over 24 hours. The bounce followed tech stocks, with Nasdaq 100 futures up 1.1%, snapping a weeklong 5.5% selloff, and an ETF tracking chipmakers jumping 3%. WTI crude recovered to $98.55 after touching $96.72, as the U.S. warned citizens across 12 Middle East locations of possible flight cancellations and airspace closures, raising fears of fresh strikes on Iran and disruption at the Strait of Hormuz. In Europe, the Stoxx 600 fell 0.8% after protests in France. Bitcoin would need to move through $84,000, its ceiling on October 13 and 14, to signal that the tech rebound is lifting it too.
- Bitcoin extends bounce above $82,000 as stocks rebound, DeFi tokens lead altcoin gains
Bitcoin rose 0.8% to around $82,700 on Monday, extending a rebound from Sunday's dip to about $80,700, as China's third-quarter GDP beat expectations and Nasdaq 100 futures gained more than 1%. Altcoins outpaced bitcoin: the CoinDesk 80 rose 0.9%, about triple the CoinDesk 5's 0.35% gain, and DeFi led sector gains with a 0.81% rise. Derivatives volume jumped 51% to $146 billion over 24 hours, while open interest rose only 1.25% to $141 billion, suggesting traders churned contracts without adding much net exposure. Arbitrum climbed 6.7% to about $0.20 after the Arbitrum Foundation launched a stablecoin growth program, and Pump.fun gained 7.6%. By contrast, ADA's annualized perpetual funding rate is -8%, meaning shorts are paying to stay short.
- Stocks rebound into key tech earnings: Three things to know in Bitcoin this week
Bitcoin started the week near $82,000 as stock markets attempted a tentative rebound after last week's tech-led selloff that began in South Korea, where KOSPI gained about 1.8% on Monday. Analysts expect bitcoin to retest $80,000 support after a weekly close below key local support, when the Coinbase Premium Index hit -0.14, its lowest level since late June. About 15% of S&P 500 companies report third-quarter earnings this week, including SpaceX, Tesla and Meta. Markets see 85% odds that the Federal Reserve keeps rates in the 3.75%-4.00% range at its October 28 meeting, and 75% odds of one 25-basis-point hike by year-end after two further hikes were priced out. Persistent inflation remains a concern, with September CPI at 3.7% year-on-year and PPI up 1.7% month-on-month, keeping tighter policy in view.
- Bitcoin, Ether ETFs shed $549M as October ETH outflows near $1B
According to SoSoValue data, US spot Bitcoin and Ether ETFs recorded net outflows of $549 million last week, with Bitcoin ETFs losing $229 million and Ether funds $320 million. It was a second straight weekly outflow for Bitcoin ETFs and a third for Ether funds, though the pace slowed from the previous week's $1.22 billion. Spot Ether ETFs have seen roughly $955 million in net outflows in October so far, more than in any other month this year. Ether fell 5% over seven days to about $2,433 and Bitcoin dipped 1.3% to $82,783, per CoinGecko. Even so, both fund groups remain positive for 2026 year-to-date, with Bitcoin ETFs at about $259 million and Ether ETFs at about $610 million in net inflows.

- Tesla Stock vs. the S&P 500: Which Investment Wins Through 2030?
The article argues Tesla trades at roughly 203 times this year's expected earnings and 13 times expected sales, a valuation that looks very expensive given gross margin pressure and a slower-than-expected robotaxi rollout. The flying Roadster, slated for production in 2028, is unlikely to make a meaningful sales or earnings contribution before 2030. The author thinks a Tesla-SpaceX merger by the end of the decade, likely an all-stock deal, is more likely than not and would be a key factor in how Tesla stock performs against the S&P 500 through 2030.
- SpaceX surprises Wall Street with Oct. 20 earnings date — here's why
SpaceX (SPCX) will release earnings on Oct. 20 after the market close, a surprise since earnings dates are usually shared weeks in advance. Evercore ISI analyst Kutgun Maral says possible reasons include putting updated financials on record before new financing or getting ahead of major lock-up releases, though scheduling is also possible. Reuters reported SpaceX is seeking $40 billion in financing to buy advanced Nvidia AI chips, including about $10 billion in bank loans and $30 billion in investment-grade debt, with Apollo expected to lead. The lock-up schedule includes 1.30 billion shares two days after earnings, 329 million on 10/24, and a remaining 857 million tranche of the 180-day group.
- AEP Partners with Amazon and X-energy to Explore Advanced Nuclear Energy in Indiana
American Electric Power (AEP) has announced a joint development agreement with X-energy to evaluate the feasibility of a 960-megawatt advanced nuclear project at a former coal plant site in Sullivan County, Indiana. Amazon is supporting development through a funding agreement. If the project reaches a final investment decision and is built, Amazon intends to buy the power under a long-term contract covering the facility's costs and operations. The initial project would include 12 Xe-100 units of 80 MW each, and the companies say it could create jobs, expand the local tax base and strengthen the grid for more than 60 years. AEP says the agreements include the financial safeguards it considers essential for any nuclear project to move forward.
