Analyst: Bitcoin price hovers near $85,000 resistance as whale holdings hit a six-week high
Bitcoin's price remained around $83,100 on September 30. Despite resistance above the market, large holders accumulated 41,025 BTC in just 10 days, bringing their total holdings to 13.64 million BTC, or 67.93% of Bitcoin's total supply. Bitcoin remains below the $84,000 to $85,000 supply zone, indicating strong on-chain accumulation but no confirmed breakout. Bitcoin fluctuated over the past few days, having reached a high of $87,363 on September 21 and closing at $83,503 on September 28. Support lies at $82,000 to $82,800, with resistance at $84,000 to $85,200. Analyst Ali Martinez noted that if $82,000 can hold as support, it could provide an opportunity for a move toward the $100,000 target. Despite whales increasing their positions, small holders have changed little, and Santiment emphasized that accumulation does not guarantee gains.

The RBA is nearing the end of its rate hike cycle, and the Australia-US bond yield differential may turn negative.
According to news from Bijie, as the Reserve Bank of Australia approaches the end of its rate-hiking cycle, market expectations for the monetary policy directions of the two countries have diverged, and Australia's benchmark government bond yields are expected to fall below US Treasury yields of the same maturity for the first time in more than a year. As the market increasingly bets that the RBA is close to ending its tightening cycle, while the Federal Reserve still has considerable room to raise rates in the future, some strategists believe that the performance of Australian government bonds relative to US Treasuries is likely to continue through the end of 2026. The yield spread between Australian 10-year government bonds and US 10-year Treasury notes has narrowed to about 12 basis points, close to its smallest level since September 2025. Barrenjoey Markets and Westpac expect yields in the two countries to converge in the coming months, and National Australia Bank even believes the spread could turn negative. Kenneth Crompton, head of rate strategy at NAB in Sydney, said: "Our base case is that the yield spread between Australian and US 10-year government bonds will turn negative in 2027, but it would not be surprising if this happened now. If, by the end of next year, policy expectations for Australia and the Federal Reserve diverge significantly as we expect, the spread could easily hit negative 20 basis points again."

The SEC proposes a self-custody rule, having raised objections three years ago.
Coin World News: The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) proposed a new rule on Thursday establishing a tailored framework for how registered investment advisers and regulated funds may custody crypto assets. The proposal is based on the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 and the Investment Company Act, with file number S7-2026-35, and will open a 60-day comment period after publication in the Federal Register. SEC Chairman Paul Atkins said the market has evolved from a niche curiosity into a multi-trillion-dollar asset class, but custody regulation is still written for a bygone era. The proposal aims to eliminate ambiguity in qualified custody standards in most crypto cases, allow self-custody when specific conditions are met, and permit state trust companies to serve as custodians for clients and funds. The proposal also revises the financial statement audit requirements for registered advisers and the requirements for broker-dealer custody services used by regulated funds.
