On August 30, bitcoin fell below 110,000 dollars, confirming persistent selling pressure. Technical indicators highlight a marked bearish trend, while the market hesitates to find a balance point. Between a critical support at 107,000 dollars and a solid resistance at 114,000 dollars, the next break could guide the trajectory for the coming weeks. In an uncertain economic context, tension rises among investors, divided between the fear of a new drop and the expectation of a reversal.

Driven by euphoria and records beyond $124,000, bitcoin seemed out of reach. However, the sudden break of a major technical support, a pillar of the uptrend, disrupts this picture. False alarm or real reversal signal? The question divides analysts and investors, at a time when certainties waver and volatility returns.

While cryptos are establishing themselves in the global political and financial agenda, certain statements resonate with particular intensity. In Hong Kong, during the Bitcoin Asia Conference, Eric Trump stated that bitcoin would reach one million dollars. Much more than a publicity stunt, this prediction reflects a strategic vision: that of a market in full mutation, torn between regulation, institutional adoption and geopolitical ambitions, where Asia now plays a central role.

While the market oscillates between technical consolidation and the return of institutional appetite, an extraordinary movement attracts all attention. An actor holding more than 5 billion dollars in bitcoin redirects a major part of its capital towards Ethereum. The scale of the amounts, the transparency of on-chain transactions, and the timing of the operation are striking. More than a simple arbitrage, this strategic repositioning seems to redraw the power relations between the two historical pillars of the crypto universe.

The signals align on the altcoin market. While bitcoin and Ethereum take a pause, XRP and Dogecoin position themselves at the forefront of speculative bets.

The custody of cryptos shifts to a new era. Indeed, exchanges, long dominant, are giving ground to Wall Street giants.
