As of 7 p.m. Eastern on Sunday, bitcoin BTCUSD, -0.05% was at about $49,250, according to Coinbase data, after sinking to as low as $42,169 over the course of an hour Saturday morning.
After Sunday’s recovery, bitcoin is still down about 14% over the past five days, and off 20% over the past month. But it’s up about 70% year to date, and 158% over the past 12 months. The sharp selloff Saturday followed a downturn in global stocks, and was spread among other crypo assets. Ether ETHUSD, -0.52%, which runs on the ethereum blockchain, lost about 15% at one point Saturday, but it regained those losses, trading at $4,194 by Sunday night. Saturday’s plunge knocked about $400 billion off the global crypto market cap, according to Coinmarketcap.com, before recovering most of that.
