Bitcoin's price was rejected from a previously broken trendline on August 23, leading to a drop of 7.43% by Sunday. If Bitcoin can maintain support around $105,573, which aligns with the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level, it may recover towards its daily resistance at $116,000. However, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) is currently at 36, indicating potential for further corrections if support is not found. (Source: DE.COM)

Ethereum Whale Activity and Market Sentiment
Ethereum whales have recently sold approximately 430,000 ETH, valued at $1.8 billion, contributing to a price drop to $4,400, a 5% decrease from the previous week. Despite this selling pressure, there are signs of continued interest from traditional finance investors, with Ethereum spot ETFs collecting $1.08 billion last week. (Source: BTC-ECHO)
"The strong performance of ETH since late June has reignited discussions about a potential 'flippening' where Ethereum could surpass Bitcoin." - Joseph Lubin, CEO of Consensys
Market analysts suggest that while the selling from whales is significant, the inflow of capital into Ethereum ETFs indicates a robust interest that could support future price movements. The market is currently in a "heat phase," which may lead to increased volatility. (Source: BTC-ECHO)
Bitcoin's Critical Support Levels
Bitcoin is facing pressure as it trades below the psychological level of $100,000, with current prices around $107,866, the lowest since early July. The recent inflation data has dampened expectations for an interest rate cut by the Federal Reserve, contributing to market nervousness. Analysts warn that if Bitcoin fails to hold the $100,000 support, it could trigger a deeper decline. (Source: Der Aktionär)
Investors are closely watching upcoming economic data, particularly the Non-Farm Payrolls report, which could significantly impact market sentiment. The probability of a 25 basis point rate cut in September remains high at nearly 88%, but the market's reaction to economic indicators will be crucial. (Source: Der Aktionär)
