Bitcoin steadies near $80,500 as traders brace for Wednesday's Fed decision and Friday's $11 billion options expiry

Sentiment 47/100 (Cautious)

Bitcoin is trading flat just above $80,000 this morning after a weekend slide pulled it down from last week's high near $84,800. Ether, Solana and XRP are moving in the same tight, directionless pattern, each little changed over the past day but still down a few percent for the week.
