Thursday 03 September 2026 | 13:15 UTC | London Session
Bitcoin printed a session low near $77,100 during the London morning as geopolitical deterioration in the Middle East and rate-path uncertainty compressed risk appetite simultaneously. Price staged a partial recovery, reclaiming $78,500 into the European afternoon — a recovery that looks technically constructive but lacks conviction given the macro overhang. ETH tracked the move with less volatility, holding above $2,400 throughout. XRP continued to outperform on a relative basis, its ADX at 28.8 reflecting the cleanest trending structure across the majors.
