Bitfinex Outlines Eight Macro Catalysts for Bitcoin in October 2026

Bitfinex released a report on October 1, 2026, identifying eight macroeconomic indicators that will influence Bitcoin's price performance this month. The exchange notes that rising real yields on US Treasury bonds, with the 10-year real yield reaching 2.93%, present a challenge for Bitcoin. Despite these headwinds, Bitcoin rose 7% in September, closing at 83,553 dollars, supported by 3 billion dollars in net inflows into US spot ETFs. Key upcoming events include the US employment report on October 2 and the University of Michigan inflation expectations survey on October 9.
