Markets
One does begin to suspect that September – ghastly month, isn’t it? – has a particular dislike for Bitcoin. Apparently, it’s been declining in nine out of the last fourteen Septembers. Rather like an unwelcome house guest overstaying their welcome, don’t you think? A most unpleasant annual tradition.
The market capitalization, one gathers, has rather slumped to a paltry $3.74 trillion (how dreadfully inconvenient!), and Bitcoin itself opened the week languishing near $110,000. One almost feels a twinge of pity… almost.
Traders are, naturally, in a state of fluttering apprehension. Macro uncertainty? Thinning volumes? It’s all so terribly… predictable. Honestly, one would expect them to be prepared for such tediousness. Solana, bless its heart, is attempting a spirited rally at 4%, while XRP and Cardano are merely ambling along with a modest increase. Such pedestrian efforts!

Mr. Alex Kuptsikevich (a name that positively drips with financial seriousness) notes the capitalization chart is recording “a series of lower lows.” My dear, how very descriptive! He warns of a further decline towards $105,000, before the truly dreadful prospect of dropping below that psychological $100,000 barrier. A fate too grim to contemplate over afternoon tea.
Apparently, the “crypto fear index” is back down to 40 – lowest since April. One assumes therapists specialising in digital currencies are currently enjoying a boom.
One remembers 2017 and 2019 as particularly trying Septembers. And, of course, 2021 and 2022. It’s all frightfully…consistent. It’s almost as though someone has a schedule for these little market wobbles. 🧐
And the ETFs! Oh, the ETFs. Outflows of $440 million! Ether, on the other hand, is experiencing inflows. A spot of rotation, you see. Capital, it seems, is behaving with the fickleness of a disgruntled debutante.
Now, there’s talk of non-farm payrolls (whatever those are) and a potential rate cut from the Fed. One lives in hope, naturally. Though experience teaches one not to hold one’s breath. 🥂
Options data suggests a decided preference for ‘puts’ (one assumes those are terribly gloomy things) and a generally bearish outlook. Apparently, one should be cautious… as if we hadn’t already gathered that. Really, the very nerve of it all! 🙄
One really must lie down. This financial news is simply exhausting.
