bitcoin Eyes September Rebound After August Dip,Despite Ancient Weakness
HONG KONG,September 1,2025 – Bitcoin is poised for a potential resurgence in September following a 7% decline in August,according to a report Wednesday from US economic media CNBC. The downturn contrasted sharply with Ethereum’s 17% gain over the same period. While Bitcoin’s returns have remained below 1% in the last two months, Ethereum has surged 74%.
The shift is reflected in Bitcoin’s “Dominance” indicator – a measure of its market share – which has fallen over 5% in the past month, according to data from TradingView.
Analysts suggest renewed market volatility, similar to that seen in september of previous years, could draw investors back to Bitcoin as a short-term profit possibility, particularly given the current stability. “There is no sign of excessive leverage like the last cycle,” noted Vaneck Digital Asset, indicating a potentially healthier market dynamic.
However, historical data presents a cautionary note. Since 2013, Bitcoin has averaged a -3.7% return in September,with a median decline of -4.3%,according to Coin Glass.While the last two years bucked this trend, September has consistently been a weaker month for the cryptocurrency.
Conversely, October has historically been favorable for Bitcoin, earning it the nickname “Uptober.” Since 2013, Bitcoin has rebounded in October in all but two instances, averaging a 21% return based on both average and median price.
“As Bitcoin has fallen in early September, the ethereum/Bitcoin ratio will reach a high peak,” predicts Satraz Bambra, chief executive officer of Hybrid Cryptocurrency Exchange rails.
Investor attention is also focused on potential shifts in US federal Reserve policy. Recent comments from Chairman Jerome Powell hinting at possible rate cuts are seen as potentially positive for Bitcoin, creating a more liquidity-friendly environment.
Despite these potential catalysts, experts caution that Bitcoin remains vulnerable to large-scale selling by “Whale” investors and any deterioration in broader macroeconomic conditions.
Bitcoin reached a peak price of approximately $125,000 on November 13th of last year,but has as retraced,falling to $107,200 in recent trading.
