Bitcoin slides toward $81,000 as oil surge revives rate-hike bets: Oct 23, 2026
Bitcoin moved between about $81,000 and $84,000 as an early rebound to a weekly high faded and prior gains were erased. The pullback came alongside oil above $110 reviving rate-hike bets, a drop in chip stocks and wider equities after Trump Iran comments, with prices hovering near the $81.5K ETF cost basis despite reported net ETF inflows.
