Bitcoin Surges Past $84,000 to Hit Eight-Month High

14:47 - 21.09.2026


September 21, Fineko/abc.az. Bitcoin rose over 3.7% at the opening of European markets to reach $84,129 , marking its highest level in eight months. The broader crypto market followed the rally, with Ether gaining more than 2.8%, alongside price increases in XRP, Solana, and Monero.

The rebound comes as investor appetite returned to U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs, which attracted $593 million in net inflows over Thursday and Friday. Strong bullish sentiment in the options market on the Deribit platform—where call options (272,000+) significantly outweighed puts (154,000+)—indicates that traders are positioning for further gains, though upcoming Federal Reserve speeches remain a key factor to watch.
