On Saturday, March 28, 2026, Bitcoin continued its decline, trading at $66,321 — down 3.6% on the day. Ethereum followed suit, plunging to $1,992, also losing 3.6% in 24 hours. On the week, the decline steepens to 6%, confirming a marked correction phase. Markets close the weekend on a bearish note, with no sign of an immediate rebound.
This drop is explained by a combination of factors. On one hand, macroeconomic fears persist: US bond yields are rising, attracting capital toward safer assets. On the other hand, rumors of large-scale selling by major Bitcoin holders — the so-called “whales” — are circulating on social media, amplifying panic among smaller holders. Ethereum, meanwhile, suffers from the general decline and the weakness of DeFi, which is seeing its volumes shrink.
For investors, this Saturday is a wake-up call. The loss of the $67,000 threshold is psychologically heavy, as it opens the door to a test of $65,000. Market analysts note that weekends often see amplified movements due to reduced liquidity. In the absence of a positive catalyst, the trend remains bearish, and the coming days will be crucial in determining whether this correction is temporary or the start of a deeper move.
