THE BLOCK: Bitcoin back above $80,000 for first time since mid-May, trades at $80,916

Bitcoin trading at $80,916 and reclaiming $80,000 for the first time since mid-May signals renewed risk appetite and a constructive near-term technical backdrop. The move can improve broader crypto sentiment, tighten funding conditions as positioning rebuilds, and draw incremental inflows into BTC-linked products, while also raising the sensitivity of the market to volatility around key psychological levels.
