The world\u2019s largest cryptocurrency has struggled to maintain its momentum this month amid profit-taking, macroeconomic uncertainty, and persistent ETF outflows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Bitcoin Falls 5.5% in October, Breaking Seven-Year Streak<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As of <strong>October 31<\/strong>, Bitcoin traded around <strong>$110,155<\/strong>, down <strong>5.51%<\/strong> from <strong>$122,870<\/strong> at the end of September. The decline not only ends Bitcoin\u2019s seven-year October winning streak but also marks its <strong>first negative October since 2018<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Earlier this month, Bitcoin reached an <strong>all-time high of $126,198<\/strong> on October 6 before retreating nearly <strong>13%<\/strong>. Analysts point to a combination of <strong>profit-taking<\/strong> at record levels and <strong>macro-driven market caution<\/strong> as key factors behind the decline.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Adding to market jitters, a <strong>Satoshi-era wallet<\/strong> holding <strong>$16 million in BTC<\/strong> became active for the first time in <strong>14 years<\/strong> on October 23 often interpreted as a sign of early investors cashing out at major price peaks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>ETF Outflows and Fed Policy Add Pressure<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>According to <strong>Vugar Usi Zade<\/strong>, COO at <strong>Bitget<\/strong>, recent <strong>ETF outflows<\/strong> have added selling pressure to the market. Bitcoin and Ethereum (ETH) ETFs reportedly saw over <strong>$550 million<\/strong> in outflows in late October, signaling that institutional investors are trimming exposure amid growing macro uncertainty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cChair Powell\u2019s recent comments suggest the October rate cut may be the last for the year, reinforcing the \u2018higher-for-longer\u2019 narrative,\u201d Usi Zade told <em>crypto.news<\/em>, referring to the <strong>Federal Reserve\u2019s<\/strong> latest policy outlook.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The shift in tone from the Fed has weighed on risk assets, including crypto, as investors brace for a prolonged period of elevated interest rates reducing the appeal of speculative investments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Bitcoin\u2019s Decline May Reflect Market Maturity<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>While the drop has disappointed traders accustomed to Bitcoin\u2019s October rallies, some analysts see the current trend as a <strong>sign of structural maturity<\/strong> in the market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Research firm <strong>TeraHash<\/strong> notes that as Bitcoin continues to attract institutional capital, its price reactions to inflows and outflows have become <strong>more measured<\/strong> compared to past cycles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cBitcoin\u2019s momentum, while steady, is gradually slowing down,\u201d TeraHash analysts explained. \u201cAs more capital enters the ecosystem, price volatility becomes less extreme which also helps protect BTC from sudden downturns.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Comparing multiple bull phases, analysts at TeraHash observed that the <strong>September\u2013December 2024 rally<\/strong> was weaker than the previous <strong>October 2023\u2013March 2024<\/strong> run. A similar moderation, they say, appears in the current cycle as Bitcoin transitions toward a more stable growth pattern.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What\u2019s Next for Bitcoin?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite breaking its \u201cUptober\u201d streak, most analysts maintain that Bitcoin\u2019s <strong>long-term fundamentals remain strong<\/strong>. The network continues to see healthy on-chain activity, while institutional adoption particularly through ETFs and custodial products keeps growing steadily.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, short-term price action is likely to remain volatile as markets adjust to shifting <strong>monetary policy expectations<\/strong> and <strong>global economic signals<\/strong>. Traders will be watching closely for the next <strong>Fed meeting<\/strong> and any updates on <strong>U.S. Bitcoin ETF inflows<\/strong> to gauge sentiment heading into November.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Summary:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Bitcoin<\/strong> is down <strong>5.51%<\/strong> this month, set to post its <strong>first red October since 2018<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>ETF outflows<\/strong> exceeding <strong>$550 million<\/strong> and <strong>Fed policy uncertainty<\/strong> weigh on sentiment.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Analysts suggest Bitcoin\u2019s <strong>slower momentum<\/strong> reflects <strong>market maturity<\/strong>, not weakness.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Despite short-term volatility, Bitcoin\u2019s <strong>long-term outlook<\/strong> remains positive amid institutional interest.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After seven straight years of \u201cUptober\u201d gains, Bitcoin (BTC) is on track to end October in the red breaking one of crypto\u2019s longest-running seasonal trends.
