The total crypto market cap dumped by over $100 billion at one point.<\/p>\n<h2>BTC Crashed Toward $80K<\/h2>\n<p>It was precisely a week ago \u2014 last Thursday \u2014 when the primary cryptocurrency was sliding hard and slumped to a then-multi-week low of $80,400. The bulls finally intervened after this major $6,500 decline in just days and helped the asset recover some ground to $83,000 over the weekend.<\/p>\n<p>They even pushed it to $84,000 at the start of the business week, but that was short-lived, and BTC <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/zec-and-near-plummet-hard-btc-recovers-from-rollercoaster-ride-market-watch\/\">tumbled<\/a> below $81,000 on Tuesday morning as South Korea\u2019s KOSPI plummeted. Nevertheless, bitcoin rebounded again and went into the Wednesday CPI announcement trading close to $84,000.<\/p>\n<p>As inflation in September <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/bitcoin-price-plunges-as-september-cpi-comes-out-higher-than-expected\/\">turned out to be slightly higher than expected<\/a>, the cryptocurrency slipped again toward $82,000. It remained there for a while, but the growing tension in the Asian markets <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/why-did-bitcoin-suddenly-crash-to-80k\/\">pushed it further south<\/a>, and it bottomed, at least for now, at $80,200 earlier today.<\/p>\n<p>Although it has recovered around a grand since then, it\u2019s still 2.4% down on a 24-hour scale. Its market cap has slumped to $1.630 trillion on CMC, while its dominance over the alts has climbed above 60%.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1451216\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1451216\" style=\"width: 1835px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/BTCUSD-October-15-1.png\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1451216 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/BTCUSD-October-15-1.png\" alt=\"BTCUSD October 15.
