The Bitcoin price is trading near $77,500 on Saturday, October 31, after US spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded a net outflow of about $643 million on Friday, their largest one-day withdrawal since June 25. The coin is on course to finish October down roughly 7%, according to market data cited by CryptoTicker and FinanceFeeds.
Bitcoin price today: key facts
- Price: about $77,500, with a 24-hour range of $76,338 to $77,932 (CoinGecko).
- Week: down about 3.7%. Last 30 days: down about 7.6%.
- All-time high: $126,080 (October 6, 2025), so Bitcoin sits roughly 38% below its peak.
- ETF flows on October 30: $643.3 million net outflow, ending a four-day run of inflows.
- Market sentiment: the Fear and Greed Index dropped to 30, in the fear zone, from 51 two days earlier.
Why Bitcoin fell this week
Several pressures landed at once. The Federal Reserve held rates at 3.75%-4.00% on October 28, and both dissenting officials wanted a hike, which kept expectations of tighter policy alive. We covered that decision in our report on the Fed holding rates and Bitcoin’s reaction.
On Friday, the Nasdaq also fell more than 3%, with investors questioning the return on huge AI infrastructure spending. Spending plans were a theme of the latest earnings, including Amazon’s raised capex forecast.
Crypto-specific news added to the nerves. Reports describe a security breach at Binance with an estimated impact of $6.3 billion, and sell-offs triggered forced liquidations of leveraged positions, mostly bets on higher prices. Estimates of the liquidation total differ between data providers, so treat the exact figures with caution.
ETF outflows: what the numbers show
Of the $643.3 million that left the eleven US spot Bitcoin ETFs on Friday, about 88% came from three funds: iShares Bitcoin Trust ($233.7 million), Fidelity Wise Origin ($201.0 million) and ARK 21Shares ($129.5 million). That equals less than 1% of the roughly $98 billion held in these funds. For the month, net outflows stand near $516 million through October 30, after about $2.65 billion of inflows in September.
Bitcoin price levels to watch
Analysts quoted by FinanceFeeds point to $79,000 as the first recovery line, about 2% above the current price. On the downside, the October 30 low near $76,443 is the reference point, with $75,000 to $75,200 flagged as the next support zone. The monthly candle only closes at 00:00 UTC on November 1, so October’s final return may shift slightly.
Historically October has been a strong month for Bitcoin, with gains in eight of the last ten Octobers according to Coinglass data, but this year has broken that pattern. This article is general information, not investment advice, and crypto prices are highly volatile.
