Bitcoin's extraordinary weekend was its most volatile in a year.

Bitcoin broke through the $73,000 mark last week to set a new all-time high, but the price fell back to around $64,500 on Sunday (local time) before regaining the $68,000 mark, and the price remained volatile throughout the weekend. This is the largest weekend volatility in the past year. As cryptocurrency expert Cryptoslate notes, "It was a relatively stable weekend of volatility following the launch of spot bitcoin ETFs in the US earlier this year. Most of the volatility occurred earlier in the week during US trading hours. The crypto 'fear-greed index' compiled by Alternative is still in the extreme greed phase, with Solana (SOL) the most notable gainer among the majors. BTC is currently trading up 3.10% at $68,489.37 on CoinMarketCap.
