Bitcoin declined 2.72% to $83,558 on Thursday, extending steep overnight losses as surging oil prices and higher Treasury yields heightened concerns over interest rates.

The broader cryptocurrency market also weakened amid a broader pullback in risk appetite, prompting some profit-taking after strong gains throughout September. Ether fell 2.37% to $2,671, while XRP dropped 7.5% to $1.5052. Solana declined 3.3%, Cardano slid 7.1%, and BNB lost 2.16%.

Despite the latest pullback, Bitcoin remained firmly higher for September, supported in part by growing regulatory favor from the U.S. government.

Highlights Of The Week

The Crypto Fear & Greed Index remains firmly in the Greed zone at 71, unchanged from yesterday and notably higher than last week’s Neutral reading of 50. The shift highlights resilient investor sentiment even as broader macro conditions have become less supportive for risk assets. Rising U.S. Treasury yields, expectations of further rate hikes, and a rebound in oil prices are creating additional pressure on Bitcoin and the wider crypto market. Despite these headwinds, sentiment has continued to lean toward Greed, suggesting that market participants remain relatively optimistic.

New all-time highs can reflect growing market confidence and continued buying momentum across the crypto space. Still, even powerful rallies can reverse quickly, so traders and investors should remain cautious, limit excessive exposure, and maintain disciplined risk management.
