Bitcoin steadies above $63,000 as its worst week in months got a late macro rescue
Bitcoin prices stabilized above $63,000 after a volatile week triggered by corporate selling and broader macroeconomic concerns. The market reacted to Strategy's decision to sell a small portion of its holdings, while broader crypto performance remains tied to global economic indicators.
Why it matters
The event underscores how institutional behavior and macroeconomic factors continue to drive volatility in the cryptocurrency market.
The largest crypto opened near $73,000 last Sunday, slid below $60,000 for the first time since the U.S. election in November 2024, and recovered to about $63,500 by Saturday, according to CoinDesk data. It remains roughly 50% below its October 2025 record near $126,000.
