Bitcoin Back Above $80K, IBIT Breaks Outflow Spell

Bitcoin rose to $80,700 on Tuesday, with BlackRock's iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) driving $110.34 million in ETF inflows, ending two days of outflows. Despite October's net outflows of $202 million, IBIT's performance is key for Bitcoin's recovery. IBIT is near resistance at $45.70, with support at $45.12. The Fed's rate decision is the next major catalyst.
