'Red September' Is Coming—Here's What to Expect From the Bitcoin Market

Bitcoin has historically weakened in September, falling an average of 3.77% each September since 2013 with eight crashes in 11 years, according to Coinglass data cited in the article. Yuri Berg, a consultant at FinchTrade, describes a pattern of negative social media chatter around August 25 followed by increased Bitcoin deposits to exchanges within 48-72 hours. Ben Kurland, CEO of DYOR, calls the "Red September" idea more myth than math, while Daniel Keller of InFlux Technologies says current geopolitics position BTC for a steep decline. The article notes that September losses have moderated to an average of negative 2.55% over the past five years, and that Bitcoin posted gains in September in the last two years.
