Crypto Chill: Bitcoin Dips 2.6% Under $81K Ahead of Wall Street’s Next Move

On April 6, bitcoin’s valuation declined, landing at $80,538 per unit after sliding from its recent high of $83,668. The premier digital asset saw its 24-hour trade volume contract to $14.16 billion—a 17% reduction. The day’s most active trading unfolded on platforms such as Binance, Bybit, OKX, Bitget, and Crypto.com, in that order.

Curiously, while the majority of exchanges clustered around relatively the same price, South Korea’s Upbit stood apart, listing BTC at $82,915—reflecting close to a 2% premium today and suggesting complex regional dynamics. Meanwhile, cryptoquant.com’s Coinbase Premium Index recorded a decline, pointing to diminished U.S. trading activity and lighter buy-side pressure. As of Sunday, the San Francisco-based exchange ranked sixth in trade volume, trailing just behind Crypto.com.

Losses from Sunday’s trading trimmed the broader crypto economy by 2.45%, bringing the total valuation to $2.59 trillion. Bitcoin maintains a commanding 62% share of that total, with ethereum ( ETH) holding 8%. In derivatives markets, liquidations reached $252.79 million on Sunday, of which $207 million were long positions. ETH long liquidations contributed roughly $72 million to that figure.

Bitcoin’s price trajectory continues to move in close step with global liquidity shifts—considered by some to be the “purest” gauge of macroeconomic and monetary policy forces. With Wall Street poised to reopen tomorrow, BTC’s latest turn may not bode well for traditional finance (TradFi)—but it offers a revealing pulse check on broader market sentiment. At press time, at 1:45 p.m. ET, BTC is exchanging hands for $80,613 per coin.
