$BTC The bitcoin price slipped on Friday afternoon to a level that has been regarded for years as the floor of long-term cycles: the 200-week moving average. At around 4:40 p.m. CET, bitcoin cost roughly $68,100, or about €61,700. The daily low was $67,922. The latest slide was triggered by a figure from Washington: US producer prices for October, released at 2:30 p.m. CET, show annual inflation of 6.5 percent at the producer level.

Shortly before the release, at around 2:40 p.m., bitcoin still stood at just under $69,900. Two hours later it was about 2.6 percent lower. Over 24 hours the loss is around 4.5 percent, and the price is now about 46 percent below the record high of $126,080 from October 2025.
