Bitcoin reached $86,000 as major cryptocurrencies continued to climb, according to a Decrypt market update published on September 23, 2026. The report also highlighted fresh all-time highs among leading altcoins, pointing to broad strength across the digital-asset market rather than movement limited to Bitcoin. Exchange-traded funds were identified as a source of buying interest in the update, while oil prices moved lower. Brent and WTI were among the commodities linked to the report. The market note also referenced gains involving Aethir (ATH), AltLayer (ALT), and Ontology (ONT), alongside Bitcoin (BTC). Decrypt framed the move as part of a recent crypto run-up and examined what may be driving the advance, but the supplied report does not provide additional detail on the specific catalysts or the size of the moves for individual assets. The update offers a snapshot of simultaneous strength in crypto and weakness in oil markets.
