The post Bitcoin 4-Year Cycle May Still Be in Play: Glassnode appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Bitcoin’s recent price action may still be tracking its historic four-year halving cycle, despite some market predictions that increasing institutional interest will break the pattern, according to onchain analytics firm Glassnode. “From a cyclical perspective, Bitcoin’s price action also echoes prior patterns,” Glassnode said in a markets report on Wednesday. Bitcoin shows signs of cool off Glassnode said several factors suggest that the Bitcoin (BTC) cycle may be further along than the market assumes. Profit-taking among long-term holders — those holding Bitcoin for more than 155 days — is now “comparable to past euphoric phases, reinforcing the impression of a market late in its cycle,” it said. Glassnode also pointed to weakening demand, with capital inflows into Bitcoin “showing signs of fatigue.” Spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) have posted outflows of about $975 million over the past four trading days, according to Farside Investors.

Bitcoin’s recent price action may still be tracking its historic four-year halving cycle, despite some market predictions that increasing institutional interest will break the pattern, according to onchain analytics firm Glassnode.

“From a cyclical perspective, Bitcoin’s price action also echoes prior patterns,” Glassnode said in a markets report on Wednesday.

Bitcoin shows signs of cool off

Glassnode said several factors suggest that the Bitcoin (BTC) cycle may be further along than the market assumes.

Profit-taking among long-term holders — those holding Bitcoin for more than 155 days — is now “comparable to past euphoric phases, reinforcing the impression of a market late in its cycle,” it said.

Glassnode also pointed to weakening demand, with capital inflows into Bitcoin “showing signs of fatigue.” Spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) have posted outflows of about $975 million over the past four trading days, according to Farside Investors.

Since Bitcoin reached a new high of $124,128 on Aug. 14, the asset has dropped 8.3% to $113,940 at the time of publication, according to CoinMarketCap.

Glassnode said the drop in demand has pushed traders toward riskier bets on volatility.

“This slowing appetite has coincided with a surge in speculative positioning, as open interest across major altcoins briefly reached a record high of $60B before correcting with a -$2.5B decline,” it said.

If Bitcoin continues to follow its typical cycle, its highs may arrive as early as October, Glassnode said, adding that in the 2018 and 2022 cycles, its peak cycle highs were reached just two or three months beyond “where we currently stand when measured from the cycle low.”

Crypto analyst Rekt Capital said in early July that if the Bitcoin cycle follows the 2020 pattern, the market will likely peak in October, or 550 days after the Bitcoin halving in April 2024.

Several executives say four-year cycle is over

Not all agree that Bitcoin is still following a four-year cycle, as some industry figures argue that the growing number of public treasuries buying Bitcoin and rising demand for spot Bitcoin ETFs may lead to the cycle playing out differently.

On Aug. 10, author and investor Jason Williams said that the top 100 treasury companies hold almost 1 million Bitcoin, suggesting this cycle is different and the four-year cycle isn’t over yet. BitcoinTreasuries.NET data shows publicly traded Bitcoin treasury companies hold about $112.17 billion worth of Bitcoin.

Bitwise chief investment officer Matt Hougan said in late July that the Bitcoin cycle “is dead” and Bitcoin will likely see an “up year” in 2026.

Hougan said he expects this cycle’s timeline to be different because the halving cycle matters less each time, and the interest rate cycle is becoming more favorable for crypto.

The movie also has a 96% score on Rotten Tomatoes based on the first 56 reviews, with only two reviews considered “rotten,” or negative. The Associated Press hailed the movie as “an American masterpiece,” noting the movie touches on topical political themes and depicts a society where “gun violence, white power and immigrant deportations recur in an ongoing dance, both farcical and tragic.” The movie stars DiCaprio as an ex-revolutionary who reunites with former accomplices to rescue his 16-year-old daughter when she goes missing, and Anderson has said the movie was inspired by the 1990 novel, “Vineland.” Most critics have described the movie as an action thriller with notable chase scenes, which jumps in time from DiCaprio’s character’s early days with fictional revolutionary group, the French 75, to about 15 years later, when he is pursued by foe and military leader Captain Steven Lockjaw, played by Sean Penn.

Economic policies are chasing investors away from US – Mercer

Economic policies are chasing investors away from US – Mercer

The post Economic policies are chasing investors away from US – Mercer appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. A wave of clients are shifting away from U.S. assets as investors react to President Donald Trump’s trade and interest-rate agenda, according to Mercer LLC. The consulting firm says concern over tariffs, pressure on the Federal Reserve, a swelling budget deficit and the risk of a softer dollar are pushing money to Europe, Japan and other markets. Hooman Kaveh, Mercer’s global chief investment officer, said a rising share of the firm’s 3,900 clients, together overseeing about $17 trillion, are reducing U.S. exposure. The opening weeks in the early phase of Trump’s second term “has been a trigger for genuine diversification,” he noted in an interview this week. “We’re certainly seeing that in client portfolios where flows are toward diversifying markets, geographies, asset classes, currencies.” Market nerves were evident in early April after Trump’s “Liberation Day” announcement, when both U.S. stocks and Treasuries fell before rebounding. Even so, U.S. shares have trailed many overseas benchmarks in 2025 for dollar-based investors. Kaveh said investors are struggling to price the tariff path because the effects can cut two ways: either squeeze company margins or get passed through to consumers and lift inflation. “If you have a situation where tariffs are going to push prices up, and the weaker dollar potentially can increase inflation, that would cause the Fed much more of a challenge to cut rates,” he added. As mentione in a Bloomberg report, he called the White House’s preference for a weaker dollar “the Achilles heel to the current approach” since it can magnify the inflation impulse from tariffs. Where the money is going Trump’s repeated criticism of Chair Jerome Powell, saying he has been slow to lower borrowing costs, along with the president’s move to fire Governor Lisa Cook, is further encouraging clients to step back from the U.S., according to…
