Bitcoin traded at $81,043.87 on October 15, 2026, after falling 2.91% over the prior 24 hours. The decline extended a modest weekly pullback, with the cryptocurrency also down 2.03% over the past seven days.
Despite the near-term pressure, Bitcoin's 30-day performance remains positive, with the asset up 4.96% over that stretch. The longer window suggests the recent selling has not fully erased gains accumulated over the past month.
Bitcoin's total market capitalization stood at $1,624.39 billion as of the same reading, reflecting the asset's continued scale within the broader cryptocurrency market.
The daily and weekly losses place Bitcoin in a period of consolidation following its monthly advance, with price action in the short term moving against the trend established over the past 30 days.
