· BTCUSDT · FXpips research desk

Bitcoin has fallen from above $81,000 on 4 September to around $76,700 as hotter US inflation and Fed hike expectations weigh on risk. Early-month ETF inflows were not enough to hold the $80,000 area.

What’s driving it

  • Fed hike odds rising into Wednesday
  • August core CPI up 0.3% m/m, above forecast
  • US–Iran conflict weighing on risk appetite
