Market Picture

Crypto market capitalisation has fallen to $2 trillion, hitting lows since 8th August and losing almost 10% over the past seven days. The decline has slowed since the second half of last week, but the downtrend persists. The Cryptocurrency Fear and Greed Index fell to 26 (fear).

Bitcoin is trading around $57.5K, having been near the lower end of its trading range since 12th August. A break of this support, which has repeatedly attracted buyers since May, could accelerate the sell-off. The next important support in case of a decline will be the area of the lows of the trading range since March, around $54K.

Bitcoin ended August down 8.7% to $58,950, making it the cryptocurrency's worst month since April. In terms of seasonality, September is considered the worst month of the year for BTC. Over the past 13 years, Bitcoin has ended the month up only four times and down nine times. The average decline was 12.7%, and the average rise was 9.5%.

News Background

According to SoSoValue, outflows from spot bitcoin-ETFs in the US totalled $277.1 million last week, the highest in 10 weeks. Cumulative inflows since BTC-ETFs were approved in January have fallen to $17.60bn.

The Ethereum-ETF saw negative performance for the third consecutive week, totalling $12.6m against $44.5m a week earlier. Net outflows since product approval rose to $477.3 million.

According to Kaiko, authorities in the US, China, the UK, and Ukraine may begin selling their Bitcoin holdings in September, which could bring the first cryptocurrency down to $53K.

According to CryptoQuant, the aggregate Bitcoin balance on centralised exchanges has updated the year's lows. Experts believe this may indicate a reduction in selling pressure and the prerequisites for a resumption of the bull market if demand strengthens.

Bitcoin's hash price (an indicator of mining profitability) is at an extremely low level. CryptoQuant analysts note that the hash price to asset price ratio is reminiscent of the period before the 2020 rally.

El Salvador Nayib Bukele said that a monetary experiment with legalising Bitcoin as a legal tender has had mixed results. According to him, BTC ‘has not received the widespread acceptance we had hoped for.’

The Era of Easy Money May Be Over Again

The Era of Easy Money May Be Over Again

The global rate-cutting cycle appears to have reached its limits. With the Fed, ECB and BoJ all leaning towards tighter policy, a new era of higher rates may be emerging. Yet with debt levels across developed economies already towering, this is a dangerous balancing act. The greatest risk may lie within the old existing economic order weakening without a clear successor ready to take its place.

Gold – hit from both sides at once

Gold – hit from both sides at once

Gold is back near this month's lows around $4,118, and two forces are pulling it down at once. Iran peace talks remove the safe-haven bid while Fed rate signals undercut the inflation hedge. Central bank buying still puts a floor under the price, but Thursday's PCE report may decide whether the slide continues or gold finally finds a reason to bounce.

Hawkish Fed Supports Dollar as Oil Weakness and Political Risks Pressure Major Currencies | 23rd June, 2026

The US Dollar remained dominant as expectations of a hawkish Federal Reserve supported demand for the Greenback. Improving US-Iran relations and the lifting of sanctions on Iranian oil exports increased global supply expectations, pressuring crude oil prices. Meanwhile, political uncertainty in the UK and weaker commodity markets weighed on the Pound, Canadian Dollar, and Australian Dollar.
