Bitcoin traded above $62,000 at 5 p.m. ET on Friday, July 31, 2026, resolving this question yes. The cryptocurrency opened the day around $64,724, roughly 1.3% higher than Thursday's open, before easing back as crypto markets broadly softened during the morning session; by mid-morning bitcoin had slipped to roughly $63,600-$63,900. Despite that pullback, prices stayed comfortably above the $62,000 threshold through the close.
The dip tracked a broader risk-off mood in crypto markets that week, with both bitcoin and ether backing off recent gains as traders digested the Federal Reserve's July 29 decision to hold interest rates steady and awaited a fresh batch of corporate earnings and economic data. Bitcoin's price action in late July continued a pattern of elevated volatility but relative resilience above the $60,000 level that had held for much of the summer. The community was fully confident in this outcome, and the result matched that expectation with room to spare, as the token never approached the threshold during the day's trading.
