Analysts split on 'Uptober' as Bitcoin holds near $84K, $100K calls emerge

—SideShift's Brekken predicts $100,000 within weeks as investor attention rotates back to crypto
—Bitfinex: holding $84,000 could trap late shorts and open the path toward $87,722
—Crypto futures liquidations hit $510.6 million in 24 hours, with $417.6 million in longs
—Nansen: October's median 14% return since 2013 does not prove an Oct. 5 bottom

Why it matters: The $84,000 level will decide whether Bitcoin stays range-bound or pushes toward $90,000 if ETF inflows return.
