Bitcoin recovered from a brief drop below $63,000 earlier this week. Now at $63,950, the leading cryptocurrency ended September with a 7.3% gain, its best performance for the month in history.
The past few days have been a hot spot for a series of events that have simultaneously renewed optimism in global markets, with bitcoin at the forefront. The feeling of FOMO (fear of missing out) has returned to the market, indicating a readiness for further growth
However, this optimistic outlook is tempered by warnings, such as a peak in social sentiment, which could indicate potential difficulties ahead of new waves of growth,” he added.
The broader cryptocurrency market also suffered losses on Monday, with bitcoin down 3.7% and other cryptocurrencies such as Ethereum and Solana down 2.8% and 1.9% respectively.
Several altcoins, including Ripple, Cardano, Polkadot, and Chainlink, lost more than 5%. Meanwhile, US equity indices remained largely stable throughout the day but declined towards the end of the session.
Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell said that although further rate cuts are planned, they may be less aggressive than before.
Despite market volatility, bitcoin is showing resilience. Historically, September has been a difficult month for bitcoin, but this year's gains suggest that October could be even more successful.
