The asset had recovered some ground during the previous weekend after Trump canceled the then-planned attacks against Iran, and sat close to $64,000. However, it was quickly rejected on Monday morning and slipped to $62,200.<\/p>\n<p>Nevertheless, the bulls were quick to intercept the move and helped bitcoin rebound to $64,000 by Tuesday morning. The next few days saw some gradual price increases from BTC, which was able to tap $65,000. Although it was stopped there, after the CLARITY Act <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/bitcoin-taps-65k-despite-clarity-act-setback-and-lack-of-us-iran-deal-weekly-crypto-recap\/\">faced another setback<\/a> in the US Senate, the weak jobs report that came on Friday <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/bitcoin-barely-budges-as-weak-us-jobs-data-cuts-fed-hike-odds-to-44\/\">resulted<\/a> in a minor rally that drove the asset to $65,400.<\/p>\n<p>Bitcoin couldn\u2019t continue climbing and retreated to $65,000, where it <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/pi-networks-pi-reclaims-key-support-bitcoin-btc-fights-for-65k-weekend-watch\/\">spent the entire Saturday<\/a>. It has remained sideways on Sunday as well, currently trading a few hundred dollars below that level.<\/p>\n<p>Its market capitalization remains at around $1.3 trillion, while its dominance over the alts is above 57% on CG.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1445225\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1445225\" style=\"width: 1835px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/BTCUSD-Aug-9.png\"><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1445225\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">BTCUSD Aug 9.
