Bitcoin was little changed over the past 24 hours: BTC traded at $84,910 (+1.2%) as of 13:32 UTC on Sunday, September 27, 2026. Ether was +0.9% at $2,708 and the total crypto market -1.9%, so BTC did better than the market. 28 of the 40 largest coins were higher.
Why is Bitcoin flat today? What the numbers show
- Versus the market. BTC moved against the market: +1.2% while total crypto market value was -1.9%. That points to a Bitcoin-specific driver; see the stories below.
- Versus Ether. BTC matched Ether by 0.3 percentage points over 24 hours, and ranked 13th of 40 large coins by 24-hour change. Bitcoin dominance is 58.3%.
- Trading activity. 24-hour trading volume was $21.0 billion, equal to 1.2% of BTC’s $1.71 trillion market value, up 16.1% on the previous day. Volume did not change sharply, so the move was not driven by a surge of trading.
- 24-hour range. BTC traded between $83,836 (20:50 UTC, Sep 26) and $84,980 (10:20 UTC), a 1.4% swing. The high came after the low. The current price sits near the top of that range.
- The bigger picture. Over 7 days BTC is +5.4% and over 30 days +6.9%. The 30-day range is $75,761 to $87,158. BTC is 32.7% below its all-time high of $126,080.
- Sentiment. The Crypto Fear & Greed Index reads 70 (Greed), down from 74 a day earlier.
- Network. The Bitcoin blockchain is at block 968,843. The next halving, at block 1,050,000, is 81,157 blocks away — roughly 2 years at the current average of 614 seconds per block — when the block reward falls from 3.125 to 1.5625 BTC.
