Bitcoin's recent 11.4% price correction from $29,340 to $25,980 has led experts to analyze the impact on the market structure, with some attributing the volatility to reduced liquidity and market makers adjusting their algorithms, however, examination of the derivatives market shows that whales and market makers remain optimistic and not bearish, as evidenced by the futures premium remaining neutral to bullish and the lack of bearish sentiment in options markets.
Bitcoin's current market structure is similar to its setup before reaching its all-time high in November 2021, suggesting a potential bullish trajectory for the leading cryptocurrency, according to crypto expert Credible Crypto, who believes a breakout from the accumulation range could lead to a 120% rally and new all-time highs this year. However, a drop below $24.8k would invalidate this prediction.
The recent price pullback in Bitcoin and the cryptocurrency market is not surprising, as most risk assets typically suffer when the S&P 500 falls; however, volatility for both Bitcoin and the S&P 500 is declining, which suggests mainstream migration and a potential lack of price-pump potential for Bitcoin.
Bitcoin's correlations with various assets can provide insight into its price movements, with crypto-specific stocks like MSTR, COIN, and RIOT showing strong correlation due to their Bitcoin holdings, and silver demonstrating a higher correlation than gold as a commodity mirroring Bitcoin's price moves. However, correlations are not set in stone and can change rapidly, so these relationships may not always predict future price moves accurately.
Bitcoin and Ether rose over 3% to reach their highest prices in a week, while Solana, NEAR, Cardano, Polkadot, and Binance's altcoins also experienced gains, following a surge in traditional markets; however, experts predict that the downtrend in digital assets may continue for the next few weeks.
Whales are actively acquiring various digital assets, including Ethereum, Lido, Uniswap, and Aave, which could indicate bullish trends in the crypto market.
Key social metrics suggest that cryptocurrency markets may soon rebound, as the use of the term "bear market" has reached an 11-week high on social media platforms, which historically indicates that price rises are likely; additionally, deep-pocketed investors are accumulating Bitcoin again, contributing to a recent rally.
Bitcoin remains on track for a massive bull cycle despite recent price decline, as indicated by broader indicators of its price patterns and the use of logarithmic growth curves. The 200-week moving average is seen as less significant as a key price support level for Bitcoin, and the analyst is also looking for an entry point for Ethereum.
Crypto analyst Michaël van de Poppe believes that Ethereum's current price dip could be due to Bitcoin's upcoming halving, and suggests that BTC may follow the path of commodities, while naming certain altcoins, including ARB, OP, INJ, SUI, PEPE, and DOGE, that he's keeping an eye on.
A Bitcoin whale has moved $134 million worth of BTC out of a centralized exchange, coinciding with a decrease in the amount of BTC sitting in exchanges and an increase in whale transactions.
Ethereum's price has surpassed Bitcoin's in the second half of 2023, as investor sentiment towards Ethereum has improved and Bitcoin dominance has declined, indicating a shift towards altcoins; Ethereum's oversold status and resilient consolidation above $1,500 suggest a potential bullish reversal in the coming days, but a drop below $1,500 is possible if bears gain control.
Bitcoin's recent correction and regulatory news have caused a wave of selling, but analysts from JPMorgan believe that the sell-off may be nearing its end phase, with limited downside predicted for the crypto market in the near term.
Bitcoin's recent surge in value may be attributed to a $10 billion investment by whales, Robinhood's involvement in a $3 billion Bitcoin purchase, and JPMorgan analysts predicting an end to the crypto bear market.
Bitcoin's velocity has decreased to a 3-year low, potentially suggesting that whales are holding onto their positions rather than transferring ownership to new investors. Meanwhile, select altcoins like Toncoin, Monero, Mantle, and Quant are showing signs of strength and could present short-term trading opportunities depending on Bitcoin's next move.
BTC's illiquid supply now makes up 80% of the total BTC tokens in circulation, indicating a shift towards long-term investment, while low exchange volumes could lead to volatile price swings; Bitcoin whales have begun adding to their stockpiles, signaling confidence in an upcoming bullish trend.
Sentiment suggests that digital asset markets are preparing for an upward reversal, despite the possibility of a credit-induced correction, according to crypto investor Chris Burniske.
Former Goldman Sachs executive Raoul Pal believes that Bitcoin may be on the verge of a massive rally, based on the historical volatility of the cryptocurrency dropping below 20, a level that has preceded significant price increases in the past. Pal also notes that Bitcoin's Bollinger Bands, a volatility indicator, are the tightest they have ever been, further indicating the potential for a strong upward movement. Ethereum is also highlighted as trading within a bullish pattern despite recent market corrections.
Bitcoin's price is closely linked to stock prices and has seen significant growth, outperforming Amazon over a 12-year period, according to Bloomberg analyst Mike McGlone; however, he is skeptical about its move into the mainstream and warns of potential price declines when the masses invest. Other analysts speculate on Bitcoin's price, with predictions ranging from a dip to $23,500 to exceeding $30,000 by year-end. McGlone is known for identifying unique trends in Bitcoin, and JPMorgan suggests that the recent crypto asset selloffs are mostly over.
There is a possibility that digital assets may not witness another bull market, according to a crypto strategist who is growing skeptical of the market's potential for a bullish reversal this time around, citing a lack of real-world use cases and the failure to deliver on promises. However, another investor remains confident that a crypto bull market is coming, predicting a potential decline in prices before a new bull market begins.
Bitcoin could experience a major market correction in September, potentially dropping by more than 16% based on historical performance and predictions by crypto analyst Benjamin Cowen.
Bitcoin's recent surge in price may be a positive sign, but investors should exercise caution and consider dollar cost averaging as a strategy for entering the market.
Some altcoins like OKB, Ocean Protocol (OCEAN), Bitcoin Cash (BCH), and Toncoin (TON) show potential for bullish trends in September, with OKB potentially hitting a new all-time high at $72.10. However, a breakdown in the support areas could result in bearish trends for these cryptocurrencies.
Disappointing economic data in Asia-Pacific markets, overinvestment in China, and Chinese electric vehicle companies expanding in Europe are among the key factors impacting global markets, while the price of bitcoin remains volatile with conflicting predictions about its future.
Ethereum's price has been declining, leading to concerns among investors, but there are two factors to consider: a drop in user activity and transaction volume on the Ethereum blockchain, which may be due to users migrating to faster and cheaper Layer 2 blockchains, and selling by Ethereum "whales" and insiders, including co-founder Vitalik Buterin, which could be attributed to profit-taking and security measures rather than a lack of confidence in Ethereum's future prospects. Despite the market's overreaction, Ethereum remains a strong investment with its dominance in various business segments and ongoing development plans.
Bitcoin is expected to experience a corrective move before resuming its bullish momentum and potentially surpassing its previous highs, according to a pseudonymous analyst who accurately predicted the lowest price of the cryptocurrency during the 2018 bear market.
Bitcoin's weak performance and its potential "double top" structure raise concerns of more downside, with predictions of new local lows; however, there are indications that Bitcoin may experience a major shakeout before rebounding to "fair value" and the 200-week EMA near $25,600 may offer some optimism; debate ensues over the possibility of Bitcoin filling the $20,000 CME futures gap; liquidity levels on BTC/USD markets continue to increase, adding to bearish predictions; ahead of the Federal Reserve meeting, the United States Consumer Price Index (CPI) data release on September 14 brings potential volatility to the market and may impact crypto market expectations.

Pizzino believes that Bitcoin is more likely to experience a modest move to key support levels rather than a significant collapse in price.
The recent decline in the price of Bitcoin has raised concerns of a larger market downtrend, with Ethereum and Ripple also at risk of falling if Bitcoin weakens further.
Bitcoin's vulnerability to contracting global liquidity is highlighted by Bloomberg Intelligence's crypto market analyst Jamie Coutts, who suggests that the cryptocurrency will only turn bullish when global liquidity levels expand, warning that it is unlikely to rise until liquidity reverses and anticipating that institutional investors will only show significant demand for digital assets once liquidity rises.
Bitcoin could potentially surge over 70% in a move similar to 2015, as crypto analyst Michaël van de Poppe observes patterns that indicate a sustained trading range before a significant upside move ahead of the 2016 halving event.
