CoinSwitch: Macro Pressure Drives the Next Move

CoinSwitch Markets Desk called the decline macro-driven, with the 10-year Treasury yield at its highest since 2002. Brent crude near USD 102 and a stronger dollar have further tightened financial conditions. Easing yields could lift Bitcoin toward USD 86,500.

Crypto News Today: Top Headlines Impacting Prices

Fed Minutes and Surging Yields Keep Risk Appetite Low

The 10-year Treasury yield has climbed to its highest level since 2002, and the 30-year yield touched a 24-year high. Brent crude also moved near USD 102 as Middle East supply risks lingered, which adds to inflation worries.

Fed minutes signaled caution on inflation, though CME FedWatch shows only about a 20% chance of an October hike. Traders now look to September CPI on October 14, which could set the tone for policy expectations and risk appetite.

Long Liquidations Top USD 500M 

Desks report more than USD 500 million in liquidations over 24 hours, with long positions taking most of the damage. Bitcoin broke below USD 84,000 first, and altcoins then slid faster as leveraged stops triggered across exchanges.

CoinMarketCap shows derivatives open interest near USD 423.84 billion, which means leverage still runs high. Another sharp move near USD 82,000 could trigger fresh forced selling, especially if Treasury yields climb again this week.

Crypto ETFs Record USD 213.4M in Outflows

Crypto exchange-traded funds recorded net outflows of about USD 213.4 million on October 7, according to WazirX. The outflow follows a split October 6 session, when Bitcoin funds added USD 118.8 million.

Ether funds lost USD 201.9 million in that session, according to BitDelta India. Weaker fund demand has capped each rally toward USD 87,000, so institutional flows remain a key signal for traders.

Evernorth XRPN Nasdaq Debut Slips to October 12

Evernorth Holdings is merging with Armada Acquisition Corp. II and plans to trade on Nasdaq under the ticker XRPN. The merger close has slipped from October 7 to 9, which pushes the debut back as well.

Trading is now expected on October 12, and the company holds around 473 million XRP. XRP trades near USD 1.41, down 4.4%, and the delay removes a catalyst traders had marked for October 8.

Hill Presses for CLARITY Act as Regulator Seats Stay Vacant

House Financial Services Chair French Hill said SEC and CFTC actions fall short of permanent law. He still hopes the Senate passes the CLARITY Act during the lame duck session after November elections.

The Senate has only 22 session days after the elections, and seven commissioner seats remain vacant across both agencies. Delayed regulatory clarity could keep institutional appetite measured, which limits upside for large tokens.

Investor and Market Outlook

Bitcoin is testing support between USD 82,000 and USD 83,000, and USD 87,000 remains a firm ceiling. A daily close below that zone could open a path toward USD 80,000. ETF outflows, Treasury yields and September CPI on October 14 will steer the next move. Investors should favor staggered entries, modest position sizing and low leverage.
