Bitcoin Falls 6.26% to $63,965 as Ethereum Drops 8.64% and Solana Sinks 11.03%

How far the big three coins fell

Bitcoin traded at $63,964.81 at 22:29 GMT on Saturday, down $4,273.40 from $68,238.21. Crypto trades around the clock, so there is no closing bell to wait for: the move happened while traditional markets were dark.

The smaller coins took the heavier hit. Ethereum dropped to $1,760.97 and Solana to $69.48. Coins like these usually swing by more than Bitcoin in both directions, which is why a 6% fall in Bitcoin can come with a double-digit fall in Solana. You can follow the live levels on the Bitcoin and Ethereum pages.

This is a bigger drop than Saturday's earlier wrap, when Bitcoin was slipping 1.51% to $67,207. For the earlier picture, see our weekend crypto update.

Put together, the three coins moved in the same direction and by wide margins, which points to a broad retreat from crypto rather than trouble in a single token. Solana's 11.03% fall was the steepest of the group, followed by Ethereum's 8.64% and Bitcoin's 6.26%. Moves of this size are rare enough to stand out even in a market that is used to sharp swings.
