🟡Bitcoin ended August in the red, logging its fourth consecutive monthly loss, and all eyes are now on September — historically the worst-performing month for crypto. Over the past decade, BTC has averaged -4% returns, while altcoins have at times shed up to 50%. This seasonal weakness is often tied to the end of the fiscal year, Federal Reserve meetings, and heightened macro uncertainty.
🟡Analysts expect September 2025 to be no exception, with major events ahead: the release of CPI data, the Fed’s policy meeting, large-scale altcoin unlocks, and the launch of new ETFs. Still, crypto blogger Coin22 notes that such downturns often provide prime entry points for long-term investors, as markets have historically recovered and resumed growth toward the end of the cycle.
