The Producer Price Index (PPI) rose 0.5% in July, surpassing expectations and lowering the odds of aggressive Federal Reserve rate cuts. Markets now anticipate a modest 25-basis-point cut in September, compared to hopes for a 50-point move earlier this month.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-166995\" src=\"https:\/\/cryptodnes.bg\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/08\/BTC_1D_graph_coinmarketcap-2.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cryptodnes.bg\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/08\/BTC_1D_graph_coinmarketcap-2.jpeg 1200w, https:\/\/cryptodnes.bg\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/08\/BTC_1D_graph_coinmarketcap-2-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/cryptodnes.bg\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/08\/BTC_1D_graph_coinmarketcap-2-1024x683.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/cryptodnes.bg\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/08\/BTC_1D_graph_coinmarketcap-2-768x512.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\"><\/p>\n<p>A stronger dollar reinforced the risk-off tone, with the DXY rising 3% since August 12. Bitcoin\u2019s 60-day correlation with gold slipped to -0.47, indicating investors rotated into traditional safe havens as geopolitical uncertainty deepened amid stalled Ukraine peace talks.<\/p>\n<h2>Technical Breakdown Triggers Liquidations<\/h2>\n<p>The bearish backdrop was amplified by technical weakness. BTC fell below $118,859 support (23.6% Fibonacci retracement) and its 7-day SMA at $118,992, triggering momentum-driven selling. The MACD histogram flipped negative (-85.32), reflecting growing downside pressure.<\/p>\n<p>Automated trading systems likely accelerated the decline, with $81 million in long positions liquidated. Traders now eye $114,500 (38.2% Fib level) as the next critical support. With the RSI at 47, Bitcoin retains room for further downside before entering oversold conditions.<\/p>\n<p><div class=\"read-more pb-3 pt-3 pt-md-2 px-3 my-4 border bg-light\">\n    <h5 class=\"text-uppercase border-bottom mb-3 pb-1\">Read More:<\/h5>\n    <a class=\"article row post-166926\" href=\"https:\/\/cryptodnes.bg\/en\/xrp-etf-countdown-sec-to-decide-on-8-filings-in-october\/\" title=\"XRP ETF Countdown: SEC to Decide on 8 Filings in October\">\n        <div class=\"contentRight col-4\">\n            <span class=\"imgContainer mt-0\">\n                <img class=\"image img-defer\" src=\"https:\/\/cryptodnes.bg\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/12\/coin_bitcoin-etf-big-1-e1695034230515-240x170.jpg\">\n            <\/span>\n        <\/div>\n        <div class=\"contentLeft col-8\">\n            <h4 class=\"title mb-0\">XRP ETF Countdown: SEC to Decide on 8 Filings in October<\/h4>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/a>\n<\/div>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Whale Activity Adds Volatility<\/h2>\n<p>Large-wallet activity added another layer of uncertainty. A dormant whale moved 330 BTC ($39M) after more than 12 years, sparking speculation about profit-taking. Meanwhile, Japanese investment firm Metaplanet acquired 775 BTC ($93M), signaling continued institutional demand.<\/p>\n<p>Exchange inflows spiked to 12,000 BTC per week, a level last seen ahead of November 2024\u2019s correction. The Exchange Whale Ratio at 0.50 points to elevated sell-side risk, particularly as Bitcoin trades just below its recent all-time high.<br>\nOutlook<\/p>\n<p>While institutional accumulation highlights long-term confidence, near-term risks remain skewed to the downside. Macro headwinds, fragile technicals, and profit-taking whales could keep Bitcoin under pressure until buyers reclaim $118,000 support.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bitcoin
