Bitcoin has already plummeted by 1.4% in the past 24 hours and is currently trading at $57,724.44. Bitcoin has already bled for the past month with a slump of 6.2%.  The transfer comes at a time when other top anonymous wallets, and whales, remained inactive.But after this move, sudden sell-offs could be a possibility.

As for what looks like to be the case for Bitcoin in September, depends on Bitcoin ETF inflows. If institutional capital continues to show confidence in the crypto, BTC price could sustain above key support at $60,000 in September. Even so, no major fluctuations are expected before US elections.
