Bitcoin nears $83,900 as New York Fed President says no further rate hikes needed in 2027

Bitcoin rose 1.5% in Wednesday’s Asian morning session to nearly $83,900, according to Techub, citing CoinDesk. The move came as New York Fed President John Williams said no additional rate hikes would be needed in 2027, a comment that weakened the U.S. dollar and lifted Asian equities. At the same time, Williams said one more rate increase could still be appropriate this year. Other crypto assets also moved higher. ZEC climbed nearly 7% to about $1,270. SOL and DOGE each gained 2.5%, while Ether rose 2% to around $2,520. XRP, BNB and HYPE were up between 1% and 2%, and TRX posted a gain of less than 1%. The report was attributed to CoinDesk.

Bitwise CIO Matt Hougan says Q3 could rank among crypto’s best quarters

Bitwise Chief Investment Officer Matt Hougan said the third quarter could end up being one of the strongest periods in crypto history, pointing to a sharp rebound in prices and continued expansion across on-chain markets as signs of what he called the start of a "crypto spring." In Bitwise’s quarterly market review, the firm’s broad crypto index gained 46.4% in Q3, while U.S. spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds posted $6 billion in inflows during the same period, pushing year-to-date net flows back into positive territory. The report said the advance was not limited to token prices. The value of tokenized stocks rose 65.5% to nearly $3.2 billion, and open interest in decentralized perpetual futures climbed to a record near $26 billion. Within that market, the share tied to stocks, commodities, foreign exchange and pre-IPO shares kept increasing. Major crypto assets also posted strong quarterly gains, with Bitcoin up 42.3%, Ether up 69.1% and Solana up 59.2%. All 10 assets in Bitwise’s large-cap index rose by double digits, led by Chainlink at 97.6%. Still, the rebound was uneven, with shares of Riot Platforms, Hut 8 and Galaxy Digital falling, and the number of public companies holding Bitcoin or Ether also declining.

Altcoins outperform in thin markets as bitcoin stays below $83,500 and ETF outflows mount

Smaller cryptocurrencies led the market higher on Monday even as bitcoin stayed below $83,500 and institutional flows remained weak. The CoinDesk 80 rose about 3% over 24 hours, more than twice the 1.2% gain in the CoinDesk 5, showing stronger momentum in smaller tokens than in the largest assets. CoinDesk research said bitcoin and ether order-book depth has recovered to pre-crash levels since the Oct. 10, 2025 flash crash, while altcoin liquidity has kept thinning, leaving price moves more exposed to shallow market conditions. At the same time, U.S.-listed spot bitcoin ETFs posted $681 million in net outflows last week, the largest weekly withdrawal since June, according to SoSoValue. Spot ether ETFs have not recorded a single day of inflows since Sept. 28, extending their outflow streak to nine days, also the longest since June. In derivatives, trading volume jumped to $126 billion in 24 hours, up 81%, but open interest rose only 2.44% to $145.8 billion, pointing to heavy turnover rather than broad new leverage. CoinDesk also highlighted notable positioning in ZEC, NEAR, STRK and ZRO, while options activity on Deribit showed continued demand for downside protection in bitcoin.
