Bitcoin's September Slump: Whales Accumulate, Altcoins Primed, Fed Holds the Key
The Bitcoin & Cryptocurrency Investment Show podcast.
Hey, crypto fam—it’s your best bud Crypto Willy, bringing you all the hot action and eyebrow-raising twists from The Bitcoin & Cryptocurrency Investment Show for the first week of September 2025.
Let’s kick off with the big kahuna: **Bitcoin’s price**. True to its seasonal reputation, BTC shed about 6.5% so far this month, sliding from the late August high around $124,500 to hover near $110,800. This September dip lines up with what we’ve seen for years—data from Coinglass highlights that September is historically Bitcoin’s weakest month, averaging -3.3%. Yet, as analyst Timothy Peterson and Crypto Nova remind us, these dips often set the table for those tasty Q4 rallies. Many eyes are on the $116,000 resistance as a make-or-break line: push through that, and analysts see real potential for a run up to $123,250, even tagging $125,000 as a possible target if the Fed cuts rates and the dollar stays soft. But slip below the $100,000 psychological level and we could see a retest down to $93,000 or even $80,000, so keep your stop losses close.
This week, there’s a clear tug-of-war between **institutional whales**—addresses holding more than 100 BTC are stacking coins at record rates—and retail traders who are looking a little nervous on the sidelines. Some of this is tied to ETF flows: while spot Bitcoin ETFs saw outflows, indicating some profit-taking, those holding for the long-term remain unfazed. The on-chain data shows rising exchange reserves, a classic sign that the market could be prepping for near-term profit-taking before the next leg up.
While Bitcoin gets most of the headlines, the **altcoin crew—Ethereum, BNB, Solana, and ADA—**are arguably gearing up for their own leg higher. Ethereum’s defending the $4,000 level, but needs to break toward $4,500-$5,000 to confirm a full breakout. Altcoins historically sprint ahead in mature bull markets, and with major upgrades like Ethereum’s next hard fork and Solana’s Alpenglow about to drop, there’s potential for fireworks—if, and only if, big brother BTC holds the fort above resistance. If not, expect Bitcoin dominance to rise and alts may feel the squeeze.
**NFTs** made a surprise headline: August saw trading volumes jump 9% to hit a yearly high at $578 million, even as the number of sales ticked down, signaling some smart money consolidation and perhaps a warming trend for digital collectibles.
Looking further ahead, all eyes are on the **Federal Reserve’s meeting mid-September**. A dovish tone from Jerome Powell or hints of a rate cut could light a fire under crypto. Meanwhile, the first US spot Bitcoin ETF is poised for possible approval—potentially one for the history books.
Finally, don’t overlook the macro: global central bank moves, inflation worries, and the all-important dollar index all feed into crypto’s mood swings. Remember, September can be tricky across all markets, so as your friend Willy always says—don’t chase the pumps, manage your risk, and keep your portfolio balanced.
Thanks for hanging out with me on The Bitcoin & Cryptocurrency Investment Show. Swing back next week for your can’t-miss dose of all things crypto—this has been a Quiet Please production, and to catch more from me, hit up QuietPlease Dot A I. See you down the chain, folks!
