Bitcoin Surges Past $60K: Why This Time Could Be Different for Traders and Investors
For the first time in two weeks, Bitcoin has reclaimed the $60,000 mark, signaling what many believe to be a pivotal moment for the cryptocurrency. Crypto analyst Rajat Soni asserts that "this time is different," pointing out that Bitcoin has consolidated above $50,000 for over six months. Unlike past rallies, this surge is driven largely by institutional investors, rather than the retail traders who fueled the 2021 boom.
Soni warns retail traders that selling now could be a costly mistake, as institutional buyers are ready to scoop up what retail investors offload. Bitcoin’s recent climb to $60,596 marks a 4.25% gain since September 12, and it has risen 12.4% over the past week.
September Surprise: Bitcoin Defies Expectations
Historically, September is a challenging month for Bitcoin, with the asset posting an average monthly loss of 4.49% over the past 11 years. However, pseudonymous trader Jelle believes Bitcoin might be set to break this trend. With Bitcoin already up this month, Jelle suggests that it could close September "in the green" for the first time since 2016.
Bitcoin Dominance Continues to Grow
As Bitcoin regains strength, its market dominance has surged to 57.80%, the highest daily close for BTC dominance in this cycle, according to crypto analyst Benjamin Cowen. Meanwhile, Reflexivity Research co-founder Will Clemente highlighted promising technical indicators for Bitcoin, with a potential reclaim of its 200-day moving average suggesting more gains could be ahead.
Whether you're a trader or long-term investor, the momentum behind Bitcoin seems to be shifting, and many are betting that this time, it’s here to stay.
