Bitcoin (BTC) surged more than 22% following the Federal Reserve’s rate cut, but faced resistance at $65,200, according to Bitfinex Alpha.





Bitcoin (BTC) has seen a significant surge of over 22% since the Federal Reserve decided to cut interest rates, reaching a new all-time high of $64,200 on September 20, according to Bitfinex Alpha. Despite this impressive rally, BTC has yet to break above the stubborn resistance level of $65,200, which has been observed since August 25. Failure to do so would confirm the downtrend that has been underway since March, with every subsequent high being lower than the previous one.

Market Trends and Analysis

The recent rise in BTC value contrasts with the worrying rise in open interest, suggesting that the futures and perpetual markets, rather than the spot market, are driving most of the recent volatility. This discrepancy raises questions about the sustainability of the recent price rally.

Meanwhile, several altcoins have seen dramatic gains, with some tokens surging more than 100% from their lows in August and September. However, caution is warranted as open interest for altcoins has reached new highs without a corresponding price breakout in the broader altcoin market. The OTHERS index, which measures the performance of altcoins outside of the top 10 cryptocurrencies, has continued to decline over the past month.

Spot Market and ETF Impact

With Bitcoin buying in the spot market slowing and cumulative spot volumes stagnating as the BTC price approaches $63,500, Bitfinex predicts that BTC is likely to trade range-bound in the short term. However, a counter argument is that continued ETF inflows could support the BTC price. Last week, spot Bitcoin ETFs saw inflows of $397.2 million, suggesting that prices could rise further, especially if traditional financial markets such as the S&P 500 continue to rally. If Bitcoin can overcome a key resistance level from late August, it could reach a new high. However, without continued spot buying, a sideways move or partial correction seems the most likely scenario.

Economic context

The broader economic outlook is marked by the Fed’s decision to cut interest rates by 50 basis points, the first of a series of expected cuts, reflecting a shift in the central bank’s priorities from controlling inflation to focusing on the labor market. Inflation appears to be cooling, with retail sales data for August showing a mere 0.1% increase. Household spending is expected to follow suit, along with job security and growth, but uncertainty remains.

Industrial production recovered strongly in August, and the housing market showed signs of warming as single-family home construction increased. But it remains to be seen whether this momentum can continue, and Fed action will play a key role.

Institutional Development and Regulatory Action

The cryptocurrency market continues to evolve rapidly, marked by significant institutional moves and regulatory crackdowns. In a major step toward integrating Bitcoin into traditional finance, the SEC has approved BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust’s options listing application, and other ETF issuers are lining up to file applications.

Meanwhile, MicroStrategy has increased its already significant Bitcoin holdings by purchasing an additional 7,420 BTC for $458.2 million, bringing its total holdings to 252,220 and its value to $15.8 billion.

As these institutional developments take place, law enforcement efforts to root out bad actors are also intensifying. German authorities, including the Central Office for Combating Cybercrime and the Federal Criminal Police Office, have dismantled 47 trading platforms that were known to be used for large-scale money laundering.
