The crypto market is turning bearish as rising U.S. Treasury yields and expectations of further Federal Reserve rate hikes tighten financial conditions. The 2-year Treasury yield hit a 26-month high, while the 10-year yield recently broke above 5%, signaling potential continued pressure on liquidity and risk assets like crypto. Bitcoin's key support level at $70,000 is critical; a break below this could trigger increased selling and liquidations. Despite these risks, some traders remain hopeful for a rally in October, but the overall outlook leans bearish for now.
