Brent surge tests Fed restraint as Bitcoin volume stays muted.

Bitcoin price sits near 64,000 dollars amid light volume and contained liquidations, yet the real pressure comes from Brent crude jumping above 87 dollars and injecting persistent cost inflation that tests the Fed's hold stance today. Miners face a likely difficulty drop while exchange outflows show mixed follow-through rather than broad accumulation, leaving the network's security layer exposed if energy costs keep climbing without offsetting demand. The open question is whether higher oil simply passes through or forces a policy response that squeezes liquidity across risk assets.
