Bitcoin held just above $86,000 Tuesday after a fourth rejection near $87,000, with oil below $100 (Brent $98.45, WTI $87.32) and Treasury yields retreating from 2002 highs providing macro relief. FxPro flagged $84,000 as the level that shifts momentum to sellers with $80,000 in view. The Nikkei reclaimed 70,000 on chip buying while the KOSPI slipped back below 7,000 ahead of Samsung's preliminary Q3 results. Bitcoin's 3-for-3 post-midterm record (2014: +24.5%, 2018: +44.9%, 2022: +92.3%) is a tailwind with a three-observation sample — treasury yield stabilization and regulatory progress matter more than the pattern. Strategy's market cap surpassed Rumble; Strive overtook 140+ companies in a month. Fed minutes Wednesday.$BTC
