It had climbed above $86,000 even before the US jobs report went live, which was weaker-than-expected. The bulls initiated another leg up, driving the cryptocurrency to over $87,000.<\/p>\n<p>However, the bears stepped up at this point. Bitcoin slumped in the following hours and ultimately crashed below $84,000. It rebounded to just over that level on Saturday and climbed to $85,000 on Sunday. It tried to take down the crucial $87,000 support on Monday, but it was quickly <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/bitcoin-btc-rejected-at-87k-again-cardano-ada-soars-11-market-watch\/\">stopped<\/a> and dipped to $85,000.<\/p>\n<p>Another breakout attempt followed on Tuesday, but BTC <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/pi-networks-pi-token-remains-below-key-resistance-bitcoin-btc-returns-to-86k-market-watch\/\">couldn\u2019t go<\/a> past $86,600 this time. It pulled back by a grand and stood there for a few hours before it suddenly <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/why-did-bitcoins-price-slump-by-2k-in-20-minutes\/\">slumped<\/a> by over $2,000 on Monday morning in minutes to $83,600. Its rebound stalled at $84,400, and the asset is now struggling at $84,000.<\/p>\n<p>Its market capitalization is down to $1.680 trillion, while its dominance over the alts has remained at the same level as yesterday at 59% on CMC.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/BTCUSD-October-7.png\"><\/a>BTCUSD October 7.

XRP has seemingly lost the $1.50 support after a 3% decline pushed it to $1.46. BNB, SOL, TRX, and ZEC are also slightly in the red.<\/p>\n<p>More painful declines come from the likes of ADA (-6.5%), UNI (-8.5%), CRO (-5.5%), SHIB (-6%), as well as WLD, CC, SUI, CRO, and HBAR. DOT has plummeted by 9%, while MNT has decreased by 10%. BTW is among the few exceptions among the larger-cap alts.<\/p>\n<p>The total crypto market cap has shed over $60 billion in a day and is down to $2.850 trillion on CMC.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Screenshot-2026-10-07-122848.png\"><\/a>Cryptocurrency Market Overview October 7.
