Bitcoin slips back to $82,500 support after brief run at $85,000

Bitcoin gave back a late-Wednesday climb to nearly $85,000 and traded just under $82,800, with analysts watching $82,500 as tech futures fell on AI spending doubts.

Why it matters: Bitcoin's failed push through $84,000 leaves it testing a support level analysts link to a possible drop toward $70,000, as weak tech earnings revive doubts over AI spending.
