Bitcoin reclaims $83K as stocks rise and positions get wiped out: Oct 22, 2026
Bitcoin moved to weekly highs around $83K to $84K as the wider crypto market rebounded, with one report linking the spike to $83.3K to higher US stocks on Q3 earnings and lower oil. The move coincided with $45 million and later $188 million in wiped-out positions, while Bitcoin ETFs added $550 million over two days as Ether products saw outflows. Bitcoin later gave back its attempt near $85,000 as Tesla and Meta results failed to ease AI-related concerns.
