The weekend Bitcoin rebound has reclaimed lost ground: by Sunday the largest crypto asset was changing hands near $82,837, up roughly 1.4% on the day after dipping to about $80,427 – a small exhale following Saturday’s anniversary-date flush.
The 10/10 Flush, in Numbers
Traders spent the first week of October piling leverage into the one-year anniversary of the October 10, 2025 crash, and the market duly obliged. BeInCrypto’s tally put 24-hour liquidations above $1 billion, with roughly 180,000 traders wiped out – about $940 million of it in longs – as Bitcoin slipped to an intraday low near $80,393.
What the Bitcoin Rebound Does Not Settle
The Fear & Greed Index sits at 56, a deliberately unbothered ‘neutral’. Prediction markets imply around 67% odds that Bitcoin revisits $80,000 or lower before October ends, according to Decrypt, so Sunday’s bounce may be less a turnaround than a breather.
The read from the tape matches what the anniversary crowd learned on Saturday: the market marked its own crashiversary by liquidating everyone who thought they had outgrown the lesson. Volatility is lower than the 2025 era – but the leverage habit clearly isn’t, and the Bitcoin rebound leaves the month’s biggest question exactly where it was: does $80,000 break before October closes?
