Bitcoin Slips Below $84K as US 10-Year Treasury Yield Hits 19-Year High

What happened: Bitcoin traded near $83,200 during Asia hours after breaking below $84,000, as the US 10-year Treasury yield reached 5.13% intraday—its highest since 2007—before closing at 5.11%. The CME FedWatch tool showed a 75.3% probability of a Federal Reserve rate hike in October, up sharply from 55% the previous day. The US Treasury also announced a $6 billion buyback of long-dated bonds.

Why it matters: Rising yields and rate hike expectations have historically pressured risk assets, including crypto. Despite the macro headwinds, Bitcoin's price has held up relatively well, with analysts noting its resilience. October has been a historically strong month for BTC, averaging nearly 20% returns, but persistent rate volatility could test that pattern.
