Wintermute: Bitcoin pressured by oil rally and Fed tightening risk
- —BTC fell for a third straight week, touching $80,500
- —Spot bitcoin ETFs saw $636 million in daily outflows
- —Brent crude rose 5.7% to $116.72 a barrel
- —A move above $120 could make a December hike the base case
Why it matters: Oil prices and ETF flows now drive bitcoin: losing $80,000 opens the door to $76,000 and below.
