Bollcoin, October 23 — According to Cointelegraph, US stocks remain under pressure amid financing strains in AI infrastructure and concerns over earnings prospects. Bitcoin fell 3.2% on Thursday, at one point dropping to $80,840, and was still hovering below $82,000 on Friday ahead of the Wall Street open. Analysts note that credit stress in the AI infrastructure sector is spreading to the broader stock market, and high financing costs could also constrain capital expenditure and investment returns for related companies. On flows, US spot Bitcoin ETFs saw about $635 million in net outflows on Thursday, the largest single-day net outflow since late June; over the past 24 hours, long liquidations in the crypto market totaled roughly $281 million.
