Bitcoin Price Today

The price at the top of this page is the live price of one bitcoin in US dollars — the midpoint of the best bid and ask on Coinbase (with Kraken and Bitstamp as fallbacks, then the CoinGecko average), updated every 30 seconds. Bitcoin trades 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, so the change shown is over the past 24 hours rather than since a daily close.

Bitcoin is down $3,858 (4.85%) over the past 24 hours, at $75,718. Bitcoin is moving with tech stocks: the Nasdaq is down 5.52%, a sign of broad risk aversion. In the wider market the dollar index is +0.48% and the 10-year Treasury yield down 6 basis points; a firmer dollar and higher yields usually weigh on bitcoin. Traders are waiting for the Jobs report (October 2026) at 8:30 am ET, which often brings sharp moves. Today's bitcoin headlines are mostly about ETF flows and bitcoin miners.

A satoshi is the smallest unit of bitcoin: one hundred-millionth of a BTC (0.00000001). Most people buy fractions of a bitcoin, so small amounts are often quoted in sats. The converter on this page turns any amount of BTC or sats into dollars or 24 other currencies, and back.

Bitcoin's supply is capped at 21 million coins. About 20.11 million have been issued so far (95.8%), and the rest will be mined gradually until around 2140.

Every 210,000 blocks — roughly every four years — the number of new bitcoins created per block is cut in half. The next halving is due at block 1,050,000, expected around April 2028, when the reward falls from 3.125 to 1.5625 BTC per block. Previous halvings took place in 2012, 2016, 2020 and April 2024.

Each exchange has its own order book, so prices differ slightly between them. In some countries bitcoin also trades at a premium or discount to the international price because of capital controls, banking restrictions or currency demand. Our country pages show the international price converted at today's exchange rate and explain local rules and taxes.

Demand from investors (including spot bitcoin ETFs and companies holding bitcoin), interest rates and the US dollar, overall risk appetite in stock markets, regulation and news, and the fixed, shrinking supply schedule. Bitcoin often moves with technology stocks in the short term; the "Bitcoin vs markets" panel shows how it is trading against stocks, gold and the dollar today.
