Bitcoin stabilises around 71 000 € after an October of contained volatility
As of 25 October 2026, bitcoin closes near 71 300 €, after a month marked by relatively moderate price swings. This end-of-month level serves as a reference for the crypto market, while volumes remain high but below the peaks of 2025.
As of 25 October 2026, data aggregated by several market trackers show a closing price for bitcoin near 80 000 $ (approximately 71 300 € at the rate of 1 € = 1,1235 $). Investing.com reports for the session of 25-10-2026 a price of about 80 121 $ (near 71 300 €), with a daily decline of less than 1%. This placement slightly below recent highs comes a few days before the monthly close, often watched as a signal for the broader crypto market.
Over the last thirty days, the price series recorded by Investing.com show a range of roughly 79 800 to 86 700 $, or approximately 71 000 to 77 100 €. This range reflects real volatility, but more contained than during some turbulent episodes in 2025. Around 71 000 €, bitcoin nevertheless trades well above its historical long‑term reference. The visibility on a relatively narrow price band feeds the idea, among some observers, of a waiting phase before a possible new directional move.
Statistics cited in community discussions emphasize that the average daily bitcoin price since 2010 hovers around 22 000 $, or about 19 600 €. By comparison, the current level near 71 300 € remains more than three times higher than this long-term average. This gap puts into perspective the ground covered in a little over a decade, while reminding that consolidation phases around new valuation thresholds are not unprecedented in the asset’s history.
On specialized forums, notably the daily 25 October 2026 discussion on r/Bitcoin, participants mention an average daily trading volume over the past week on the order of several tens of billions of euros (conversion of estimates originally expressed in dollars). These amounts attest to a market that remains deep, despite a pullback from the peaks seen in 2025. This depth remains a key element for price formation, risk management and the appetite of both institutional and retail players.
Bitcoin’s position around 71 000 € at this end of October could serve as a barometer for the rest of the crypto market, notably altcoins, whose risk appetite often depends on the leader’s stability. In this context, the price gap with ether, situated around 2 068 € (about 2 323 $), illustrates BTC’s maintained pivotal role. Investors are closely watching the monthly close, without this presaging the market’s future direction. These elements do not constitute investment advice.
