Bitcoin Holds Price Range Despite Drop to $108K as Whale Rotation Keep Traders Cautious
Key Takeaways
- Bitcoin opened the week weaker, sliding to $108,000 after weekend range-trading and ETF outflows; short-term support sits around the $107k cost-basis band.
- Spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded net weekly outflows near $799 million last week; Ethereum ETFs were roughly flat for the week. Solana’s debut ETFs drew $199 million and remain a tactical destination for flows.
- Large-holder balance remains concentrated: wallets holding 10–10k BTC control 13.68 million BTC (≈68.62% supply); these cohorts added ~110,010 BTC in October and sold ~23,200 BTC since.
- Onchain and derivatives signals are mixed: realized profitability compressed, funding muted, and options skew modestly put-biased; participation has cooled and leverage is lower.
- Action bias: maintain defensive sizing, prefer staggered entries into dips; watch whether spot ETF flows reaccelerate and whether BTC can reclaim and hold above $110k on sustained volume.

Crypto News: Donald Trump-Aligned Fed Governor To Speed Up Fed Rate Cuts?
The post Crypto News: Donald Trump-Aligned Fed Governor To Speed Up Fed Rate Cuts? appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. In recent crypto news, Stephen Miran swore in as the latest Federal Reserve governor on September 16, 2025, slipping into the board’s last open spot right before the Federal Open Market Committee kicks off its two-day rate discussion. Traders are betting heavily on a 25-basis-point trim, which would bring the federal funds rate down to 4.00%-4.25%, based on CME FedWatch Tool figures from September 15, 2025. Miran, who’s been Trump’s top economic advisor and a supporter of his trade ideas, joins a seven-member board where just three governors come from Democratic picks, according to the Fed’s records updated that same day. Crypto News: Miran’s Background and Quick Path to Confirmation The Senate greenlit Miran on September 15, 2025, with a tight 48-47 vote, following his nomination on September 2, 2025, as per a recent crypto news update. His stint runs only until January 31, 2026, stepping in for Adriana D. Kugler, who stepped down in August 2025 for reasons not made public. Miran earned his economics Ph.D. from Harvard and worked at the Treasury back in Trump’s first go-around. Afterward, he moved to Hudson Bay Capital Management as an economist, then looped back to the White House in December 2024 to head the Council of Economic Advisers. There, he helped craft Trump’s “reciprocal tariffs” approach, aimed at fixing trade gaps with China and the EU. He wouldn’t quit his White House gig, which irked Senator Elizabeth Warren at the September 7, 2025, confirmation hearings. That limited time frame means Miran gets to cast a vote straight away at the FOMC session starting September 16, 2025. The full board now features Chair Jerome H. Powell (Trump pick, term ends 2026), Vice Chair Philip N. Jefferson (Biden, to 2036), and folks like Lisa D. Cook (Biden, to 2028) and Michael S. Barr…
