Cryptocurrency Overview
Despite a packed calendar for September, it was a quiet weekend, with only 34% implied volume on BTC and 51% on ETH. However, it seems likely that this is short-lived.
The Ethereum Bellatrix upgrade is scheduled for Tuesday. This upgrade aims to bring the Beacon Chain into a steady state. For more information about the Ethereum 2.0 merge, please visit our blog: ETH 2.0: Ultimate User Guide to Ethereum's Merge.
It’s conference season, with DAS and SALT in NYC next week and Token2049 in the last week of September.
Lastly, The FOMC didn’t meet in August, so it will have that much more attention when it does meet this month. Currently, the market is pretty well-divided on if we’ll see a 50 or 75-bps hike.
Weekly Snapshot
Bitcoin Technical Analysis
After facing stiff resistance around the key level of C$32,000 (50% Fibonacci Retracement Level), Bitcoin witnessed a sharp correction. The asset gave a breakout on the downside of the ‘Rising Channel’ pattern on August 26th and dropped to C$25,555. Following this move, BTC started trading sideways in a narrow range from C$25,600 to C$26,800. Breakouts on either side of the range could decide the trend for the asset.
