Historically, BTC has often ended September in the red, averaging a ~3%–4% decline since 2013. “This year may be different, given how tariffs have hit the index, and recent Septembers have shown moderate losses, with some even posting ￰12￱ often pressures Bitcoin, but it’s not a guaranteed down month,” the exec ￰13￱ continues: “As usual, some in the DeFi circles spin these false narratives into patterns that don’t exist with sentiment-driven assets.” Risks for 2025 are still thin liquidity, leveraged positioning, and uncertainty around the US Federal Reserve’s September meeting. “A rate cut could inject momentum and help Bitcoin hold its ground.

“The market would likely view such a development as a signal that a bottom is being reached, which would be in line with our end-of-summer thesis, which is when ETF flows across major asset classes pick up,” Bitfinex analysts ￰17￱ & Events to Watch Next At the time of writing on Tuesday morning, BTC trades at $110,245.
