As expected, the first day of September saw a 2% drop, with BTC prices weak and hitting a low of $57,230 on Bitstamp - a level last seen on August 16.

As the weekend approached, poor liquidity led to a dismal monthly close, with buyers unable to prevent further losses.

As a result, according to monitoring resource CoinGlass, Bitcoin fell 8.6% in August, below its average gain of 1.75%. Its data also showed that September was a historically poor month for BTC/USD, with an average loss of 4.5% in total.

In other words, it's not the end yet, right, teachers? #BTC☀
