JAKARTA - September has often been a challenge for Bitcoin. History shows that the price of Bitcoin tends to decline this month from year to year. However, there is optimism that this year Bitcoin may exceed expectations and break this negative trend.

In the midst of the ongoing Bitcoin bearish phase, there is a strategic opportunity for investors to accumulate these digital assets. Currently, the price of BTC is in the range of $55,000. Head of CryptoQuant Research, Julio Moreno, estimates that there is a potential for deeper correction if BTC falls below the critical level of US$56,000.

This correction could be an opportunity for investors waiting for lower prices to enter the market. Although September has often been a stressful month for Bitcoin, the current market conditions provide new hope. Increased large investor activity and a more positive trend of on-chain data suggest that Bitcoin may break its historical downward pattern.

In addition, external factors such as plans to cut interest rates by the US Federal Reserve could be a positive driver to maintain crypto market momentum this month. INDODAX CEO Oscar Darmawan stated that the current market situation creates an exciting opportunity for investors to accumulate Bitcoin.

He stressed that the current conditions are different from the previous period, especially with the increasing activity of market participants who show confidence in Bitcoin's future prospects. Furthermore, Oscar mentioned that this time's bearish market cycle may only be temporary.

"Crypto market is very dynamic, and we need to be ready to face short-term fluctuations. However, history shows that after the bearish phase, there is usually a significant recovery potential," Oscar said, in a written statement, quoted on Sunday, September 8.

Oscar also added that although volatility is an inseparable part of the crypto market, it is not always negative. According to him, price fluctuations can open up opportunities for those who are ready and understand how to take advantage of market conditions. Therefore, he encourages investors to remain calm and take a strategic approach in investing.

Lastly, Oscar reminded the importance of vigilance for investors not to be influenced by short-term emotions. He believes that Bitcoin's long-term adoption and blockchain technology will continue to grow, providing strong reasons for investors to remain committed to their investment strategy.

Responding to the market, Oscar continues to encourage investors to use safer investment strategies, such as Dollar Cost Averaging (DCA).

"DCA is an approach that allows investors to reduce risks by investing regularly in fixed amounts, regardless of price fluctuations. With this strategy, we hope users can make wiser investment decisions and avoid emotional impacts when the market moves drastically," concluded Oscar.
