The Crypto Fear and Greed Index fell to 56 (neutral) on Monday from 67 a week earlier, down from an Aug. 26 peak of 82, its highest of the year. Bitcoin dropped about 6%, from $86,978 to a low of $81,749.83 on Oct. 8, as Brent crude topped $101 and the 30-year Treasury yield hit 5.70%, its highest since 2002. Spot Bitcoin ETFs lost $484.9 million on a Wednesday last week and are down a net $386.3 million for October, while Ethereum funds extended outflows to nine straight days. Myriad traders put 56% odds on Bitcoin falling to $80,000 in October. The article attributes the pressure mainly to macro factors such as oil, yields and rate-hike expectations rather than a crypto-specific problem.
