    Bitcoin Tests $87K | Rising Yields Challenge Uptober | Altcoins Rally | Strategy Reaches 848K BTC | Tokenized Stocks Gain Ground

    Bitcoin keeps testing $87,000—but can buyers turn resistance into support? In this week’s Weekly Crypto Forecast, we break down a market caught between improving crypto momentum and rising U.S. bond yields. We explore why a weaker jobs report failed to deliver a sustained Bitcoin breakout, what Fed minutes could reveal, and how selected altcoins are outperforming. Midnight, LayerZero, Pump.fun and Aave lead the spotlight, while Zcash’s pullback raises questions about the durability of narrative-driven rallies. Corporate treasuries remain in focus as Strategy reaches 848,000 BTC, BitMine expands its ETH position and Metaplanet’s purchases highlight the importance of funding and liquidity. We also cover the proposed OKX–ICE tokenized-stock venue, NEAR and ONDO, Blast’s reported wind-down, ZachXBT’s latest investigation and the CFTC’s developing crypto-market framework. In the TA Section, we compare the weekly bullish case with the four-hour range and liquidity-sweep scenarios. Watch the $87,000–$87,500 resistance area, the $82,000–$83,000 support zone and the conditions that could bring higher or lower levels into play. Plus: CMC AI and Agentic Charts, and the Token Unlocks watchlist featuring ENA, HYPE, RAIN, ADI and UB.
