“From a digital asset perspective,” Siemer says, “that dynamic tends to boost assets like Bitcoin and Ethereum because it reduces the opportunity cost of holding risk ￰15￱ the flip side, the market isn’t in full-throttle rally mode ￰16￱ are taking incremental exposure, not betting on a straight run.” Should there be “follow-through with clear signs of rate cuts” and constant inflows into crypto, we could see “a meaningful move upward heading into year-end.” Moreover, Gadi Chait, Head of Investment at Xapo Bank , stated that BTC spent the last week in a holding pattern, while “investors focused on macro signals, not chasing big moves.” “Government data was thin, so markets leaned on clues from bonds and gold: the 10-year Treasury yield eased and gold cooled off from extreme levels, but that “safe-haven” tone didn’t translate into a rush into BTC,” Chait says.

“With attention now shifting to the Fed’s upcoming rate decision, any potential easing aimed at supporting a softening labor market is unlikely to change the broader momentum: capital continues to flow toward Bitcoin, recognising its growing role as a resilient anchor asset in an increasingly complex financial landscape,” the exec ￰17￱ & Events to Watch Next At the time of writing on Monday morning, BTC trades at $115,583.
