Bitcoin news for September 23, 2026
Bitcoin has reached $87,000 as part of a broader rally that pushed total crypto market capitalization back to $3 trillion, with BNB, DOGE and XRP also posting strong gains. The move comes alongside record Nasdaq levels and sliding oil prices on hopes around Iran, while Bitcoin ETFs have erased a $5.7 billion gap aided by about $1 billion of inflows to BlackRock over four days, though profit-taking is absorbing some of the new demand.
