1214 GMT - Leverage is leaving bitcoin at an orderly pace which should leave the market on firmer ground, says ARP Digital's Yusuf Fakhro. Open interest in Bitcoin derivatives fell by roughly 49,000 BTC over the week-one of the largest drops in two years--but this wasn't accompanied by a price crash, he says. "This tells you that traders were calmly taking profits after a strong September, not being liquidated in a panic," he says. Fakhro says high Treasury yields are the only barrier to another breakout. Bitcoin is 0.3% higher at $86,113.
