Bitcoin (BTC) was below $83,000 on a settled benchmark reading for 9 a.m. ET (13:00 UTC) Monday, Oct. 19, while December 2026 Brent crude futures were quoted at $108.47 per barrel at 5:42 a.m. ET (09:42 UTC). The readings came at different times and do not show that oil drove Bitcoin’s level. The Bitcoin result reflects a one-minute average of a real-time index. It confirms that the benchmark average was under $83,000 at 9 a.m.; it does not show when BTC crossed the threshold or give an exact spot price.
