Bitcoin changed hands near $84,591 on Saturday, October 3, down $1,797, or 2.08%, over the prior 24 hours, according to a MyTrade Academy reference print timestamped 18:00 UTC+8. The same board put the day’s range at $84,254 to $86,813.
That is a giveback from Friday’s push. A Binance daily series cited by ProbaView closed October 2 at $85,062. Friday’s high on the MyTrade board, $86,813, sat about $2,200 above Saturday’s print. Seven-day performance was still positive, at 0.73%. Thirty days were up 8.76%.
U.S. spot products do not print a new flow number on Saturday. The last completed session, Thursday’s reopen of October, was a $102.7 million net intake, with BlackRock’s IBIT at $195.6 million and Fidelity’s FBTC at a $60.7 million redemption, TFTC’s October table shows. Friday’s ETF tape had not been posted on that table by Saturday morning.
Key takeaways
- Bitcoin at $84,591 on October 3, down 2.08% over 24 hours.
- Friday range on the same board: $84,254 to $86,813; October 2 daily close cited at $85,062.
- Last posted ETF day remains Thursday’s $102.7 million net intake; no Saturday flow print.
How far did Bitcoin fall from Friday’s $86,813 high?
About $2,222, or 2.6%, from the high to the Saturday reference. From the October 2 daily close of $85,062 the drop is closer to $470. The two distances answer different questions. One measures the intraday spike. The other measures the session-to-session change.
Ether was not the lead on this board. The Bitcoin share of the move is the weekend fact: a coin that cleared the mid-$86,000s on Friday was back under $85,000 before U.S. cash markets reopen.
What to watch next
Monday’s ETF file. If IBIT’s Thursday bid does not repeat, and FBTC is still redeeming, Friday’s high becomes a one-session mark rather than a new base. Spot can gap either way before that file lands.
