Bitcoin is about $81,422, and ETFs just saw their biggest inflow in a month
Cardano Daily
Bitcoin spent Tuesday until 14:08 near $81,422. CoinMarketCap held it at $81,422.18, down 1.08 percent. CoinGecko at $81,441, down 1.09 percent. The working price is $81,422. Ether is near $2,384, Solana near $104.05, XRP near $1.297. CoinDesk ties the slide to ~$81,400 with a 3.73 percent KOSPI drop and puts outnumbering calls more than 2:1 on Deribit. The US 10-year yield is ~5.13 percent; Brent is above $110. Mempool: 2/1/1/1/1 sat/vB, ~50.4 thousand tx. Retarget about +5.74 percent around 29 October.
For ADA this hour means a matched drop: Bitcoin minus 1.1 percent, ADA minus 0.9 percent. ADA/BTC stands at 266 satoshis. Even the largest ETF inflow in a month did not lift BTC because macro (chips, oil, yields) outweighs flows — that is an interpretation.
The funds
Farside for Monday, 19 October, records Bitcoin plus $526.7 million (IBIT +665.2; FBTC −83.6; GBTC −54.9), ether minus $103.3 million, Solana minus $6.7 million. That is the largest BTC ETF inflow in a month. Sum 12–16 October: BTC −228.4, ETH −320.1, SOL −25.5. The 20 Oct row is still empty. A≠B: TFTC/SoSoValue give +$526.6 million; October to date is −$90.5 million per CoinDesk. BlackRock announces PBIT — a Bitcoin ETF with downside protection via options on IBIT, with a capped upside; fee and date are unpublished.
What follows
The next full ETF row is expected when Farside closes the business day. For Cardano the more relevant dates are HFWG today and a possible tag 11.2.
