Summary
- Bitcoin traders expect an upward movement in September.
- BTC is trading above $66,000 today, ahead of important macro data.
Bitcoin traders are still expecting an upward move for the coin’s price this September.
Popular pseudonymous crypto trader, Rekt Capital, shared a post on X on July 30, explaining that Bitcoin is still on track for a price surge in September.
He explained that while the digital asset failed to break out of the reaccumulation range, the period where buyers accumulate in anticipation of more upward price moves, in the 100 days following the Bitcoin halving in April, such a breakout was unlikely.
100 days after the Bitcoin halving which took place on April 20 this year, on July 29, BTC was trading only 2.11% higher around $66,300.
Some other traders believe that BTC will more likely breach the important level of $100,000 sometime in 2025 rather than during this year. Pseudonymous trader Daan Crypto Trades said that the higher timeframe Bitcoin chart looks great to him.
Will Clemente, crypto research firm Reflexivity Research founder, shared a post on X the other day, saying that the Bitcoin quarterly chart is looking insane.
