About this conversion
The Bitcoin price in USD is the live market rate of one BTC quoted in US dollars, and it changes every second on the world's exchanges. Bitcoin trades 24 hours a day, 7 days a week โ unlike stocks, there is no closing bell. The BTC/USD rate you see here is pulled from CoinGecko's aggregate feed, which averages prices across major spot venues (Coinbase, Kraken, Binance, and others). That aggregate tends to sit within 0.1% of any single exchange's own quote. Bitcoin's first recorded market price was $0.0009 in October 2009; it reached parity with the US dollar in February 2011 and crossed $100,000 for the first time in late 2024.

How the math works
Converting Bitcoin to USD is simple multiplication once you have the live rate. Multiply your BTC amount by the current price to get the dollar value. For example, at $107,000 per BTC, 0.5 BTC equals $53,500 and 0.001 BTC equals $107. Under the hood, most systems store bitcoin in satoshis (1 BTC = 100,000,000 sats) and convert on display, which is why very small amounts show extra decimals. To go the other direction โ dollars to BTC โ divide the dollar amount by the BTC price: $1,000 divided by $107,000 equals about 0.00935 BTC. The live number moves every few seconds because spot exchanges continuously match new orders.
Common questions
What is the Bitcoin price in USD right now?
The Bitcoin price in USD updates every 60 seconds on this page from the CoinGecko live feed. Use the converter above for the current figure rather than a static number. BTC trades 24/7, so the price can move at any hour.
Why does the Bitcoin price differ across exchanges?
The Bitcoin price differs slightly between exchanges because each venue matches its own order book independently. Small spreads of 0.1โ0.5% appear during normal conditions and widen during high-volatility periods. Arbitrage traders quickly close the gap in most cases, but the aggregate index price shown here averages across venues to smooth these differences.
How is the live BTC/USD price calculated?
The live BTC/USD price on this page is pulled from CoinGecko's aggregate feed, which averages spot prices weighted by trading volume across major exchanges. This gives a market-representative number rather than a single-venue quote. The feed refreshes every minute and is the same source used by many wallet apps and price trackers.
What was the highest Bitcoin price in USD?
Bitcoin's all-time high in USD sits above $100,000, first crossed in late 2024. The exact peak varies by source depending on which exchange feed and time window they use. Check a live BTC chart for the current all-time high figure โ old numbers get stale quickly during bull markets.
Is the Bitcoin price the same in all countries?
The Bitcoin price is roughly the same worldwide when quoted in USD, but local exchange rates for the buyer's currency create small differences. In countries with capital controls or FX shortages, BTC often trades at a premium of 5โ15% over the USD equivalent โ this is called the 'Kimchi premium' in South Korea and similar premiums appear in Argentina, Nigeria, and elsewhere.
How often does the Bitcoin price update?
The Bitcoin price on this page refreshes every 60 seconds to keep API calls polite while giving a current picture. On active trading terminals the price ticks every fraction of a second as new orders match. For most conversion purposes, minute-level precision is more than enough.
