Risk Assets Slide as Bitcoin Analysts Debate Potential Support

Risk assets weakened across regions on Oct. 22, with South Korea’s KOSPI closing 3.52% lower and Nasdaq 100 futures down 1.7% in a BlockBeats snapshot. Bitcoin traded below $82,000 in the report.

Support views remain conditional

Trader Killa suggested bitcoin could form a weekly bottom above $80,000 before the U.S. midterm elections. That was a forecast amid the selloff, with no confirmed market bottom established by the reported prices.
