Bitcoin traded at $76,788.17 on August 23, 2026, slipping 0.16% over the prior 24 hours. The slight pullback followed a period of substantial appreciation, with the asset up 21.87% over the past seven days.

The month-long picture remained broadly positive as well. Bitcoin gained 18.27% over the trailing 30-day period, reflecting sustained buying pressure across a longer time horizon.

At the current price, Bitcoin's total market capitalization stood at $1,574.92 billion. The figure underscores the asset's continued scale within the broader digital-asset landscape.

The small intraday decline contrasts with the larger weekly and monthly trends, suggesting the market absorbed some profit-taking after a significant run-up in recent sessions.
