JPMorgan analysts have identified several important factors that could impact the cryptocurrency market in the coming months, citing technical, geopolitical, and structural events that could drive price movements. In a research report released Monday, analysts discussed the impact of the seasonal “Uptober” trend. Interest rate reduction, Bitcoin exchange-traded fund (ETF) option approval, Ethereum ETH

October tends to be a bullish month for cryptocurrencies

One of the key takeaways from the report is the historical trend of strong performance in October, popularly known as “Uptober.” Analysts highlighted that more than 70% of October as a whole produced positive returns for Bitcoin.

“While previous performance is not a predictor of future performance, we believe the popularization of ‘uptobers’ could influence behavior and lead to a positive month for Bitcoin this October,” the analysts wrote.

The Fed’s interest rate cut cycle has not yet affected the cryptocurrency market capitalization.

Despite the Federal Reserve’s recent interest rate cuts, JPMorgan analysts noted that the broader cryptocurrency market has yet to see the expected positive effects. The falling interest rate environment is generally supportive of risk assets, but the correlation between the overall cryptocurrency market capitalization and the federal funds rate remains weak at 0.46, they said.

“We have yet to see the ‘pop’ in cryptocurrency prices expected from lower interest rates following the Fed’s September 18 cut,” they wrote, adding that the market may be waiting for more sustained stability before making a decisive move. .

Analysts also acknowledged that a lack of historical data complicates firm predictions about how cryptocurrencies will react to exchange rate cycles. “Crypto assets really emerged in the early to mid-2010s, and interest rates have been near zero for most of their existence. Stable interest rates, rather than low interest rates, are likely to benefit these markets the most,” they said.

Bitcoin ETF Options Could Deepen Market Liquidity

Another potential catalyst is the recent approval of spot Bitcoin ETF options trading. Analysts expect this could deepen liquidity and attract new entrants to the market. “With options, investors now have a more dynamic way to participate in ETFs and ensure liquidity in the underlying assets,” they noted. They added that these developments could start a positive feedback loop, strengthening market structures and making digital assets more accessible to institutional investors.

In mid-September, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) approved the listing and trading of options for BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust spot ETF on Nasdaq. However, final approval still rests with the Options Clearing Corporation (OCC) and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC).

Pectra upgrade could have long-term implications for Ethereum.

The upcoming Ethereum upgrade known as ‘Pectra’ has also been highlighted as a major development. Pectra combines the Prague Update and Electra Update to implement more than 30 Ethereum Improvement Proposals (EIPs) to improve network efficiency, validator operations, and account abstraction extensions.

“While Spectra is expected to bring changes to Ethereum functionality, we see this upgrade as more structural than an immediate price catalyst,” the analysts said. They see Pectra’s long-term impact as improving Ethereum’s operational efficiency and adoption, but it is unlikely to trigger a short-term surge in Ethereum’s price.

Overall, JPMorgan analysts concluded that the cryptocurrency market is in a stagnant pattern awaiting a clearer macroeconomic or structural catalyst that could drive continued growth. “We continue to see the cryptocurrency ecosystem becoming increasingly sensitive to macro factors, so we await the next major catalyst for development and enhanced retail participation to deliver long-term growth to the ecosystem,” they said.
