Bitcoin's weekend share of volume fell from 28% to 16%
Sources: Kaiko, as published in its own research note of 27 Jun 2024 for the 2019 and 2024 figures and as relayed by Xangle on 10 Mar 2024 for 2018 and 2023. The 2024 bar covers the year to late June. A separate Kaiko figure relayed by The Block on 27 Feb 2024 put the share at 13% for 1 Jan to 20 Feb 2024, so the within-year numbers move about depending on the window.
Bitcoin trades every hour, so nothing stops anyone dealing at the weekend. The weekend share of volume still fell from 28% in 2019 to 16% in 2024, against 28.6% for an even spread. Traders keep office hours even when the market does not.
