Bitcoin experienced a sharp fall to the $60k area in early February 2026, dipping as low as ~$60,000–$61,000 on Thursday (Feb 5) amid heavy selling, thin liquidity, forced liquidations, and fading post-election hype—down over 50% from its 2025 peak above $126k.It quickly bounced back, surging ~11–13% on Friday (Feb 6) to reclaim above $70k (hitting ~$71k+), driven by dip-buying and risk asset stabilization. Volatility remains high, with current price around $68k–$70k as of Feb 7.
