Bitcoin enters October facing an interest-rate test
Bitcoin enters October, the strongest month in history for its performance, according to Decrypt, after September saw record pace. However, the Federal Reserve’s interest-rate hike and Treasury bond yields at 5.3% will test the strength of buyers.
• The news coincides with October 1, 2026, and the start of what is known as “Uptober”.
• October’s strong historical performance doesn’t guarantee a repeat this year.
• Interest rates and Treasury yields put seasonal optimism to the test.
💧 Impact on the market and liquidity: Higher Treasury yields may increase competition for yield-generating assets for Bitcoin capital, but the available data does not include figures for liquidity flows confirming such a shift.
🎯 Most affected: Bitcoin
