Bitcoin Rallies to $87,000 After Week of Losses as Weekend Trading Patterns Emerge

Bitcoin rebounded to $87,000 following a week that saw the cryptocurrency approach $80,000 support levels. The weekend rally lifted smaller digital assets, though historical data shows weekend trading volumes run 20% to 25% lower than weekdays, according to research published by Advances in Consumer Research in August. This creates thinner market conditions where momentum-driven trades exert greater price impact.
