Bitcoin holds above $81,000 as AI rout fades and oil climbs

  • —Bitcoin near $81,500, daily range under $1,000, down 0.4%
  • —BNB gained nearly 2% to $745; DOGE added about 1%
  • —XMR fell 7% to $607; ZEC lost nearly 4% to $1,200
  • —Brent at highest since early May ahead of Oct. 27–28 FOMC
Why it matters: Rising oil raises inflation risk into the FOMC, potentially capping bitcoin's recovery above $82,500.
