Bitcoin traded around $81,500 on October 17 after briefly dipping below $80,000 earlier in the month. The upcoming Federal Reserve meeting on October 28 and US inflation data in November will heavily influence Bitcoin's price direction. Despite a recent recovery, weak demand from US spot Bitcoin funds and rising Treasury yields pose challenges. The price outlook ranges from a potential rise to $95,000 if demand and policy conditions improve, to a drop near $75,000 if tightening continues and fund outflows persist.
