The crypto market was little changed over the past 24 hours. Total market value moved -0.4% to $2.78 trillion as of 13:00 UTC on Wednesday, October 14, 2026. Bitcoin traded at $82,752 (-0.6%) and Ether at $2,484 (-0.7%). 16 of the 50 largest coins were higher, and the median move was -0.4%.
Why is crypto flat today? What the numbers show
- Breadth. There was no clear direction: 16 of 50 large coins rose and 34 fell, so gains in some coins offset losses in others.
- Bitcoin versus altcoins. 29 of the other 49 large coins beat Bitcoin, so leadership was split. Bitcoin dominance stands at 59.9%, and Ether underperformed Bitcoin by 0.1 percentage points.
- Trading activity. 24-hour volume across the market was $72.1 billion, down 20.4% on the previous day. Volume did not change sharply, so the move was not driven by a surge of trading.
- Bitcoin’s 24-hour range. From $82,731 (12:58 UTC) to $83,995 (08:10 UTC), a 1.5% swing. The low came after the high.
