The only market open every day of the year has learned to make the most of it.
Bitcoin trades through the weekend because there is no exchange-mandated close, so thin Saturday and Sunday order books can carry price somewhere the wider market never agreed to, and Monday’s open elsewhere sometimes looks like it’s catching up.
