Bitcoin steady around $65,000 as ‘Mag 7’ have worst day since 2025

Bitcoin held near $65,000 in Asia morning hours on Friday, barely moving while nearly $800 billion evaporated from the biggest U.S. technology stocks – a rare stretch of independence for an asset that has tracked the AI trade all month.

The largest cryptocurrency traded at about $65,400, down less than 1% on the day and up 3% on the week. Ether slipped 3% to $1,879, and the rest of the majors leaned red. Dogecoin was the worst of them, down 5% on the day to $0.069 and 4% on the week. XRP fell 2% to $1.11, Solana lost 3% to $76, and Hyperliquid’s HYPE dropped to $58, down 4% over seven sessions. The moves were losses, but modest ones against what was happening in equities.

The Magnificent Seven, a colloquial term for the megacap group that has driven U.S. stocks for three years, fell 4.8% on Thursday and shed $797 billion in market value in their worst day since the tariff selloff of April 2025, according to Bloomberg.

The drop dragged the S&P 500 down 1.2% and the Nasdaq 100 down 1.9%, and it left the group 11% below its late-May record, erasing $2 trillion.
