Bitcoin was trading at $82,542 on the evening of 12 October 2026, down 1.07% from its previous close. The move left the cryptocurrency lower on the day but still well within the range it has occupied over the past month.

Recent trading range

Over the past 31 days, bitcoin reached a high of $86,540 and a low of $75,636. The current price sits between those two levels, roughly midway through the span, which gives a sense of how far the asset has swung in either direction over the period. The gap between the high and the low is wide, and the latest decline of 1.07% is small by comparison.

Bitcoin trades continuously, so the reported figure reflects the price at the time of measurement rather than the close of any conventional trading session. The data does not give a reason for the day’s decline, and no cause is attributed here.
