Key Notes

  • Analyst Benjamin Cowen noted that post-halving Septembers historically mark a local low for BTC before a Q4 rebound.
  • A possible 25 bps Fed rate cut at the September 17 FOMC meeting could inject liquidity into markets, pushing Bitcoin price higher.
  • Regional liquidity, particularly from Asia and the US, continues to influence short-term price movements.

Following a volatile past week, Bitcoin BTC $110 942 24h volatility: 0.6% Market cap: $2.21 T Vol. 24h: $36.55 B price is now finding support at $110,000, and faces a make-or-break situation ahead.

For the past few weeks, BTC has been trading between $104K and $116K. Recently, Bitcoin OG whales have offloaded some holdings, showing a shift in sentiment toward Ethereum ETH $4 425 24h volatility: 1.2% Market cap: $534.70 B Vol. 24h: $32.23 B .

Bitcoin Price Faces Tough September

Historically, September has been a month of selling pressure for Bitcoin and altcoins, as investors prepare for a similar pullback this time. Crypto analyst Benjamin Cowen noted that historically, Bitcoin tends to hit a low in September during post-halving years.

Following this dip, BTC often rebounds into the market cycle peak, which usually occurs in the fourth quarter.

However, one major catalyst ahead is a possible 25 bps Fed rate cut coming at the FOMC meeting on September 17. This could lead to a major liquidity infusion in the market, driving BTC and the broader crypto market higher.

Blockchain analytics firm Glassnode reported that Bitcoin is currently consolidating within the $104,000-$116,000 range following significant absorption by investors.

A sustained move above $116,000 could reignite the uptrend, while a breakdown may push the price toward the $93,000-$95,000 support zone.

“Only a sustained recovery above $114k–$116k, where over 75% of short-term holder supply would return to profit, could provide the confidence necessary to attract new demand and fuel the next leg higher,” noted Glassnode.

Bitcoin ETFs, Futures Data, and Whale Activity Show Cooling Demand

Flow into spot Bitcoin ETFs has turned negative in recent weeks, showing that the institutional demand for the same has been waning.

On the other hand, the BTC futures show subdued demand from futures traders.

Investors and traders appear to be waiting on the sidelines for now. Meanwhile, Satoshi-era Bitcoin whales have been selling some of their holdings and using the proceeds to accumulate more Ethereum ETH $4 425 24h volatility: 1.2% Market cap: $534.70 B Vol. 24h: $32.23 B .

Crypto analytics firm CryptoQuant highlighted that recent Bitcoin price movements have been influenced more by regional liquidity than by ETF flows.

On-chain and exchange data indicate a recurring pattern, wherein the Asian markets often trigger the initial price moves, while U.S. markets determine whether the trend sustains.
