Overview
Bitcoin remained near the $83,000-$84,000 area while altcoins outperformed in thin trading. The market absorbed reported spot Bitcoin ETF outflows of more than $600 million for the week, as oil prices, bond yields and dollar strength shaped sentiment. The Crypto Fear and Greed Index also fell from its August peak.

Why it matters
- Bitcoin remained resilient despite substantial reported spot ETF outflows.
