Bitcoin held near $82,000 as October odds for a Federal Reserve rate hike fell to 15% from 27% a day earlier. Fed Chair Kevin Warsh avoided signaling that further increases were coming, while South Korean stocks rebounded 2%.
Why it matters
The shift in rate expectations offers support for risk assets, including Bitcoin, by reducing immediate pressure from a tighter US monetary-policy outlook. The market response remained mixed rather than broad-based.
Market impact
The US 10-year Treasury yield briefly reached 5.13% as US stocks traded unevenly. Bitcoin's stability near $82,000 alongside the South Korean rebound shows resilience, but elevated Treasury yields remain a key macro signal for digital assets and equities.
