Bitcoin price rebounded above the $82,000 level as US Treasury yields retreated. Benzinga reported that the crypto market saw $929 million in liquidations, which helped propel prices higher despite continued outflows from BTC and ETH ETFs.

Other digital assets including Ethereum and XRP showed signs of stabilization alongside this short-squeeze driven recovery. This rebound occurred as the massive liquidation volume, totaling nearly $1 billion on October 15, 2026, offset the negative pressure stemming from persistent ETF outflows.
