Bitcoin zooms toward $87,000, nearly setting an eight-month high, then reverses

--

Bitcoin came within about $500 of its late-September peak before sellers pushed it back under $86,000. It's the second rally in a week to stall.\nWhat To Know Bitcoin rose 1.5% to above $86,000 as softer U.S. jobs data fueled expectations of lower interest rates and lifted global stocks. Dogecoin led major cryptocurrencies with a gain of more than 3%, while XRP, BNB and ZEC advanced between 1% and 2%. Bitcoin is about $1,300 below its eight-month high near $87,400, a level that could come within reach if the 10-year Treasury yield continues to fall.
