Bitcoin Holds Above $83,000 as ETF Flows Splinter Risk-On Rally

Bitcoin is trading above $83,000 and the Fear and Greed Index has climbed to 68, leaving market sentiment in 'Greed' for a month. The rally is fragile inside: US spot Bitcoin ETF net inflows picked up sharply from mid-September, lifting the price from below $80,000 to about $87,000. On October 8 the funds posted $484.9 million in single-day net outflows, the largest since June, quickly reversing the flow. Ethereum ETF and Bitcoin ETF flows have diverged markedly, a sign that the recovery in risk appetite is uneven.
