Bitcoin ETFs ended a three-week inflow streak, while Ether ETFs recorded outflows for nine straight trading sessions through Oct. 9.
Spot ETFs have changed who sets the Bitcoin price, and the easy repricing is behind us. What still supports BTC, what could break it, and how much belongs in a portfolio today.

The purchase lifted Strategy's holdings to 848,000 BTC. Michael Saylor later posted a message that could signal another acquisition without confirming one.
The attention has once again turned toward the US macro calendar. Here's what ahead of us.
Bitcoin ETF investors withdrew nearly $679 million between Oct. 5 and 9 as BTC slipped toward $80,000.
Bitcoin Cash's 24-hour change was listed at 3.28%, while a zero MACD histogram and seller-heavy taker activity pointed to limited directional momentum.
Bitcoin's September breakout held even as the Fed hiked rates for the first time since 2023 and Congress stalled crypto legislation. It also tracks key technical levels and policy signals.
Jeonbuk Bank has begun making won loans to corporate borrowers against Bitcoin held by a specialist custodian. A drop in BTC does not put coins on the bank's own balance sheet.
Near-term implied volatility has dropped to 33.5%, below realized volatility, while traders concentrated October put purchases at $78,000 and $80,000 strikes.
Bitcoin was rejected again near $87,000, making that level the main battleground between buyers and sellers. ETFs maintain solid institutional demand, but price momentum has weakened and BTC cannot break through the resistance. Labor data reduced the odds of a rate hike in October, though Treasury yields continue to limit risk appetite.
September CPI is due Oct. 14, followed by a Federal Reserve discussion with Kevin Warsh on Oct. 15, while Bitcoin apparent demand remains negative.
