Bitcoin's price chart resembles the stock market in the 1930s, suggesting that the cryptocurrency could be heading towards a major drop, according to Bloomberg's senior commodity strategist, Mike McGlone.
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.
The recent downturn in the cryptocurrency market, marked by a 10% decline in total market capitalization and significant liquidations on futures contracts, can be attributed to various economic factors such as rising interest rates and inflation, as well as regulatory concerns and financial difficulties within the industry, with the future trajectory of the market being influenced by these factors.
Bitcoin price reaches a 2-month low, but crypto analyst Michaël van de Poppe predicts a positive change in the future due to market cycle theories and the upcoming Bitcoin halving in 2024, potentially reaching a price of $50-55K pre-halving.

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.
Bitcoin prices experienced a sudden drop last week, with analysts attributing it to large liquidations of perpetual futures and a report that SpaceX had sold the cryptocurrency, while industry insiders have mixed opinions on the impact of spot bitcoin ETFs and Coinbase's investment in Circle.
Bitcoin's price, adjusted for inflation, has remained relatively static since reaching its all-time high of $20,000 in 2017, despite reaching as high as $69,000 in the meantime.
Bitcoin (BTC) price remains stagnant and could potentially slide lower, while Ethereum (ETH) and Ripple (XRP) prices are also experiencing a lack of activity, which may have negative implications as markets tend to be impatient.

Bitcoin (BTC) struggles to maintain its price above $26,000 as it heads towards its worst month of 2023, with uncertainty surrounding the upcoming monthly close and the potential for further downside surprises in September.
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.

Bitcoin's price dropped below $26,000 as the approval of a Bitcoin ETF was further delayed by the SEC, reversing the bullish gains from the Grayscale court decision earlier in the week. The crypto market also experienced a decline, with Ethereum's price going down by 3.5% and the overall market cap losing $11.2 billion. However, Maker and Toncoin managed to resist the bearish trend with positive gains.

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.
The release of the US Consumer Price Index (CPI) for August is expected to impact the crypto market, particularly Bitcoin, depending on overall financial market volatility and whether core CPI surprises to the upside or downside.

The Federal Reserve will consider this report, among other factors, for its upcoming interest rate announcement on September 20. While inflation has decreased since June, it still exceeds the Fed's target of 2% annually. Core inflation, excluding volatile food and energy costs, decreased to 4.3% in August compared to July's 4.7%.

Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies have seen a rise in price as traders anticipate a potential macroeconomic catalyst that could lead to a significant movement in the market.
Bitcoin, ethereum, BNB, and XRP have experienced a strong price rally in 2023, but a small cryptocurrency has surpassed them, while the Federal Reserve's interest rate decisions could impact the bitcoin price.
Bitcoin prices reached above $27,000 for the first time this month, with multiple cryptocurrencies experiencing broad gains, although the reason for the increase is unclear, and low liquidity may be contributing to volatility.
The positive momentum surrounding Bitcoin's price is fueled by expectations that the Federal Reserve will not hike rates again this year, while market participants remain optimistic despite the strength of the United States Dollar Index.
Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies experienced a decline after the Federal Reserve decided not to raise interest rates, suggesting that significant gains may not be anticipated in the near future.
