Bitcoin dips 1.8% amid tech stock pressure and US-Iran tensions

Bitcoin traded at $81,862, down 1.81% over 24 hours after a modest recovery from earlier losses. The decline in Bitcoin and tech stocks was influenced by concerns over OpenAI's revenue being $20 billion lower than expected, causing major tech companies like Nvidia and Intel to fall. Additionally, geopolitical tensions between the US and Iran, including US military movements and ongoing negotiations, added to market uncertainty. Investors remain cautious as these factors weigh on market sentiment.

While Bitcoin traded at $81,862 in the news, on Pluang it is priced at Rp1.463.757.086 with a 1-day decline of 1.77% as of Oct 09, 2026 06:51 WIB. This drop contrasts with a strong 76% buy order activity on the platform, indicating persistent investor interest despite the recent price fall. Bitcoin's circulating supply is near its maximum at 20.1 million out of 21 million BTC, highlighting its scarcity as it trades within its current market dynamics.
