Bitcoin price stabilizes after falling below pre-Trump second term levels

(6 Feb 2026) RESTRICTION SUMMARY: ASSOCIATED PRESS London - 6 February 2026 1. SOUNDBITE (English) Luke Garratt, The Associated Press: "The price of Bitcoin fell to its lowest level during U.S. President Trump’s second term, falling 11% on Thursday to just above $60,000. The downward slide, which ended Friday when it stabalised at just over $68,000, meant that it was worth less than it was when Trump was elected to his second term.  Bitcoin, pitched as “digital gold,” has lost NEARLY half of its value since October 6th, when it hit a record high of just over $126,000, according to crypto trading platform Coinbase.  Trump had heavily backed cryptocurrency companies since he was elected in November 2024, with prices initially chugging higher for the better part of a year, in part due to investors’ expectations of a more crypto-friendly administration. Now those gains have been erased, with the sell-off appearing to be a combination of investors pulling out of speculative assets like gold, silver, and digital currencies, and concern about the future of cryptocurrency regulation in Washington."

Various of trays of coins STORYLINE: Wall Street is bouncing back Friday from losses taken earlier in the week, as technology stocks recover some of their drops and bitcoin halts its plunge, at least for now. Bitcoin, meanwhile, steadied following a weekslong plunge that had sent it more than halfway below its record price set in October. It climbed back above $68,000 after briefly dropping close to $60,000 late Thursday. The original cryptocurrency, pitched as “digital gold,” has lost nearly half of its value since Oct. 6, when it hit a record high of $126,210.50, according to crypto trading platform Coinbase. After the election of Trump in November of 2024, Bitcoin prices chugged higher for the better part of a year, in part due to investors' expectations of a more crypto-friendly administration in Washington. But those gains have now been erased. The sell-off appears to be a combination of investors pulling out of speculative assets like gold, silver and digital currencies, as well as a concern about the future of cryptocurrency regulation in Washington, despite Trump heavily backing cryptocurrency companies since his election. =========================================================== Clients are reminded to adhere to all listed restrictions and to check the terms of their licence agreements.
