Crypto Sentiment Shifts as U.S. Election Nears: Bitcoin Analysis

Crypto traders are anticipating heightened market activity, particularly in Bitcoin trading, as the U.S. prepares for its election announcement this week. Data from Santiment shows that large Bitcoin holders, known as whales, are scaling back on transactions. This cautious behavior is seen as a response to anticipated market shifts rather than predicting a downturn. In the past, shifts in whale activity have signaled potential price reversals in the crypto market. However, in August, an increase in whale activity coincided with an increase in Bitcoin's price. The cautious outlook is also influenced by the upcoming U.S. election and Federal Reserve decisions, which introduce additional uncertainty. Crypto analyst Michaël van de Poppe suggests that recent bearish data, such as the weakest U.S. job report in three years, may lead to increased volatility in the crypto market. Key support levels for Bitcoin are around $68,000, $64,130, and $60,748. The overall sentiment is cautious, with no extreme buying or selling pressures indicated by the RSI.
