At one point, it soared as high as nearly $87,330.\u00a0<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<p>JUST IN:  U.S. Treasury Department to buy back up to $6 billion in longer-term debt tomorrow. <\/p>\n<p>Buy Bitcoin  <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/nZm3BNqiVH\">pic.twitter.com\/nZm3BNqiVH<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Bitcoin Magazine (@BitcoinMagazine) <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/BitcoinMagazine\/status\/2102834587873550707?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">September 23, 2026<\/a>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But its rally has since cooled. It dropped further on Wednesday afternoon around the time the U.S. Treasury said it will purchase up to $6 billion of longer-dated government debt on Thursday.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bitcoin previously <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinmagazine.com\/news\/bitcoin-blasts-past-68000\">benefited<\/a> from the Treasury Department\u2019s announcement of buybacks \u2014 having its best run in months \u2014 but this time dropped.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The 10-year Treasury yield <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/news\/articles\/2026-09-23\/us-aims-to-buy-back-up-to-6-billion-in-longer-dated-treasuries\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">climbed<\/a> above 5% on Wednesday for the first time in 19 years, after September\u2019s flash PMI data came in well ahead of forecasts and pushed the composite index to a five-year high.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Inflation details added to the pressure: input costs across manufacturing and services rose to their highest level since October 2022, driven largely by fuel and transportation, while wage pressure also strengthened.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Rising yields are typically a headwind for bitcoin\u2019s price. When safe government bonds pay 5%, holding an asset that generates no income becomes more expensive.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Higher rates also tend to strengthen the dollar and dampen appetite for risk-on assets. Bitcoin has repeatedly retreated this year when yields rose on inflation fears, often with ETF outflows and forced selling by leveraged traders amplifying the move.<\/p>\n<p>This post <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinmagazine.com\/news\/bitcoin-price-slips-while-yields-soar\">Bitcoin Price Slips While US Treasury Yields Soar, Oil Prices Climb<\/a> first appeared on <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinmagazine.com\/\">Bitcoin Magazine<\/a> and is written by <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinmagazine.com\/authors\/mathewdisalvo\">Mathew Di Salvo<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bitcoin Magazine Bitcoin Price Slips While US Treasury Yields Soar, Oil Prices Climb Bitcoin\u2019s price slid on Wednesday, just as U.S. Treasuries surged, with the 10-year yield climbing above 5% and reaching \u2014 its highest level since 2007.\u00a0 The price of the leading cryptocurrency was down 2% over a 24-hour period Wednesday afternoon in New [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":231566,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-231565","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-discovery"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mycryptomania.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/231565"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mycryptomania.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mycryptomania.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mycryptomania.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=231565"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/mycryptomania.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/231565\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mycryptomania.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/231566"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mycryptomania.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=231565"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mycryptomania.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=231565"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mycryptomania.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=231565"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
