Bitcoin trades at $85,500, down 0.6% over 24 hours, after recently reclaiming $86,000 and testing the area below $87,000, while its price prediction still leans bullish.

Strategy reported an estimated $20.91 billion Q3 gain on its bitcoin holdings, while Strive disclosed buying 2,000 BTC for $169 million at an average of $84,422 per coin. Strive’s filing puts its total at 29,462 BTC.
