Bitcoin trades near $83,330, up 0.6% over 24 hours but down 2.9% over the past week, per CoinGecko. Analysts say rising Treasury yields and a stronger dollar are weighing on the asset, with the 10-year yield at 5.24% and the 30-year at 5.60%, the highest levels in more than two decades. Traders now see a 19.4% chance of a 25-basis-point Fed hike at the October 28 meeting, down from 42.5% a month ago. U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs drew net inflows of $21.13 million on Friday after two days of heavy outflows, while digital asset fund inflows have lost momentum after $11.1 billion since mid-July. Bitfire sees Bitcoin trading mainly between $80,300 and $87,100, and analysts say upcoming U.S. inflation data could be decisive for the Fed's next move.

- 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.

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.
- Iran Delivers Bad News to the World
Iran's crude oil exports have fallen from nearly 1 million barrels per day in July to zero since late August, as the US reimposed a naval blockade from mid-July after a ceasefire deal collapsed. Ship-tracking and satellite data cited by the EU show no crude tankers have berthed at Kharg Island, the country's main export hub, since late August, and Jask port has seen none either. Before the blockade, Iran exported about 1.8 million barrels per day over the 12 months to April, mostly to China, and Chinese refiners are now seeking alternative supplies. Tensions in the Strait of Hormuz have also risen, with 25 vessels targeted in the first two weeks of October, versus 18 in September and 15 in August.
- Bitcoin rally could revive treasury buying, but easy-money days over
Analysts say corporate Bitcoin purchases could accelerate from late 2026 into 2027 if Bitcoin rallies, but investors are likely to be more selective about which treasury companies they fund rather than raising capital indiscriminately as in 2025. Strategy added a net 1,666 BTC in Q3, down from 83,901 BTC in Q2, while other public companies added a net 5,617 BTC versus 45,725 BTC in the previous quarter. Spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded $6.4 billion in net inflows in Q3, though US spot Bitcoin ETFs saw about $229 million in net outflows last week, their second consecutive week of withdrawals. Bitwise noted that a dozen companies that entered during the 2025 treasury boom sold their entire holdings, mostly to repay debt or return cash to shareholders after their stock premiums evaporated.
- US - Iran Peace Deal Hopes Rise as Bitcoin Eyes $90K
A US-Iran peace deal could be announced within days, according to Al-Araby Al-Jadeed, though neither government has officially confirmed a breakthrough. Talks reportedly cover military de-escalation, sanctions relief and Strait of Hormuz restrictions, while Iran's nuclear program remains a major obstacle. Bitcoin traded near $82,500 and would need to rise about 9.1% to reach $90,000, while Brent slipped toward $108 per barrel and WTI hovered near $101. Analysts noted Bitcoin's mixed performance after past US midterm elections, which fall on November 3, and Michael Saylor predicts a recovery above $100,000.
- Market participants weigh in on SEC’s proposed crypto regulations
The SEC will close public comment on its “Regulation Crypto Assets” proposal, first introduced in August, on Tuesday. Over the 60-day period, the agency received about 140 comments on a proposed safe harbor that would keep token issuers from being treated as investment contracts, along with exemptions for offerings up to a set amount. The MiCA Crypto Alliance largely supported the proposed disclosure changes but asked the SEC to better define crypto-specific concepts and data structures. SkyBridge Capital founder Anthony Scaramucci also backed the rules, calling them a return to the Commission’s proper role, though he did not mention Congress’s inaction on the CLARITY Act. Some legal experts warn the rules could be overturned more easily than an act of Congress, and both the SEC and the CFTC remain understaffed at the leadership level.
- 10 - Year Treasury Yield Falls 15 Basis Points as Nasdaq - 100 Slides 5 . 5 %
U.S. Treasury yields fell as tech stocks slid in the week ended Oct. 16: the 10-year par yield dropped from 5.24% to 5.09%, a 15-basis-point decline, while the Nasdaq-100 fell about 5.5%. Bloomberg linked the bond rally to commodity trading advisers cutting bearish Treasury futures positions and to investors seeking a haven, and said the joint drop in yields and the Nasdaq-100 was the first such week since the April 2025 tariff turmoil. Long-term yields had climbed for seven months on persistent inflation, a resilient economy and heavy borrowing, hitting their highest levels in more than two decades. Investment-grade companies had sold about $1.7 trillion of bonds in 2026 so far, roughly 29% more than a year earlier, with AI infrastructure borrowing intensifying competition for Treasury buyers. Rate traders still expect one Fed increase by the end of 2026 and another in 2027 ahead of the Oct. 27-28 policy meeting.

- UPS Yields 6.7% After Firing Amazon. Here's Whether the Dividend Survives 2027.
UPS shares yield 6.7% as of October 16. The company has moved away from high-volume, low-margin Amazon deliveries and froze its dividend earlier this year, ending a 16-year streak of increases. The article says the payout will likely remain frozen through 2026 and 2027, citing competition from 10- and 30-year Treasury yields above 5% and other industrial dividend payers, but calls the dividend's safety questionable: UPS generated $5.47 billion in free cash flow in 2025, with $5.4 billion going to dividends, and free cash flow is projected to fall to $5.05 billion in 2026 and $5.01 billion in 2027, with the dividend absorbing about 98% of 2026 free cash flow. Rising competition and high fuel prices add pressure, and the article suggests investors may find more safety in the industrial sector.
- Asian shares mostly decline after AI stocks lead a rebound on Wall Street
Asian shares mostly fell in cautious trading on Tuesday after AI-related stocks rebounded on Wall Street, while other sectors stayed shaky and oil prices stayed high. Japan's Nikkei 225 slipped 0.6% to 64,512.35 in early trading, South Korea's Kospi dropped 2.8%, and Australia's S&P/ASX 200 lost 0.8%.

The 10-year Treasury yield climbed to 5.14%, and U.S. crude rose to $103.50 a barrel and Brent to $109.47, as uncertainty about when the energy industry will return to normal after the war with Iran means oil is unlikely to ease soon.

- What Could X-Energy (XE) Gain From Its 960MW Indiana Nuclear Project?
X-Energy (NasdaqGS:XE), American Electric Power and Amazon agreed to assess a 960 MW advanced nuclear project in Indiana using Xe-100 reactors, on a former coal plant site. Under the joint development agreement, Amazon would provide development funding and commit to a long-term power purchase. The article says the deal offers commercial validation for X-Energy's reactor platform rather than immediate financial relief, as the company, with a $4.3b market cap, reported $150.28 million in revenue, a $448.87 million loss, and a 20.2x price-to-sales ratio. The next key milestone is whether the study reaches a final investment decision for the Sullivan County site.
