Bitcoin, the world’s leading cryptocurrency, is notorious for its volatility. While the long-term trend has been upward, sharp and sudden crashes are a regular feature of its market cycle. If you’re watching your portfolio dip into the red, it’s natural to feel anxious. Let’s dissect the reasons behind the latest downturn and explore the case for long-term optimism.
🔍 The Culprits: Key Reasons Behind the Recent Crash
Several macro and crypto-specific factors have converged to create significant selling pressure.
1. 🏦 Mt. Gox Repayments Begin (The Biggest Fear)
- What Happened: The defunct Mt. Gox exchange, which collapsed in 2014, finally began repayments in Bitcoin (BTC) and Bitcoin Cash (BCH) to its creditors.
- Why It Caused a Crash: This is injecting approximately $8–9 billion worth of Bitcoin into the market. Creditors who have waited a decade for their funds are highly likely to sell a portion (or all) of their recovered assets to realize cash profits. This creates a massive…

Analyst Predicts ‘Uptober’ Rally for BTC Regardless of FOMC Decision
The post Analyst Predicts ‘Uptober’ Rally for BTC Regardless of FOMC Decision appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Bitcoin traded at $116,236 as of 14:04 UTC on Sept. 17, up about 1% in the past 24 hours, holding above a key level as markets await the Federal Reserve’s policy announcement. Analysts’ comments Dean Crypto Trades noted on X that bitcoin is only about 7% above its post-election local peak, while the S&P 500 has risen 9% and gold has surged 36% during the same period. He said bitcoin has compressed more than those assets, making it likely to lead the next larger move, though it could form a “lower high” before extending further. He added that ether could join in once it breaks $5,000 and enters price discovery. Lark Davis pointed to bitcoin’s history around September FOMC meetings, saying every September decision since 2020 — except during the 2022 bear market — has preceded a strong rally. He stressed that the pattern is less about the Fed’s rate choice itself and more about seasonal dynamics, arguing that bitcoin tends to thrive in this period heading into “Uptober.” CoinDesk Research’s technical analysis According to CoinDesk Research’s technical analysis data model, bitcoin rose about 0.9% during the Sept. 16–17 analysis window, climbing from $115,461 to $116,520. BTC reached a session high of $117,317 at 07:00 UTC on Sept. 17 before consolidating. Following that peak, bitcoin tested the $116,400–$116,600 range multiple times, confirming it as a short-term support zone. In the final hour of the session, between 11:39 and 12:38 UTC, BTC attempted a breakout: prices moved narrowly between $116,351 and $116,376 before spiking to $116,551 at 12:34 on higher volume. This confirmed a consolidation-breakout pattern, though the gains were modest. Overall, bitcoin remains firm above $116,000, with support around $116,400 and resistance near $117,300.
