Blockchain Investing Strategies: Cryptocurrency Trading Guide podcast.
Hey there, it’s Crypto Willy, your blockchain bestie, bringing you everything you need to know about crypto investing for the week ending September 21, 2025! Buckle in, because this week has been absolutely wild and sets the stage for what could be the most bullish run we've seen in years.
Let’s kick off with Bitcoin — the big cheese. Historically, September is a brutal month for crypto, dubbed "Rektember" by old-school traders. But not this year! According to Cointelegraph, Bitcoin is up an eye-popping 8%, putting this month on track to be its best September in 13 years. Last time we saw anything close was back in 2012 when BTC rallied nearly 20%. Even the folks at MEXC Blog are saying Bitcoin closed out the strongest September ever, crushing old seasonal patterns and trading at $116,309 as of midweek. This was no random pump, either. Over 72% of all Bitcoin is now considered illiquid — meaning long-term holders aren’t selling. That’s drying up sell-side supply and, if this momentum carries over, some analysts are targeting $128K (even $150K whispers are floating around) before year’s end.
But wait — the crypto market wasn’t all green. Early September hit us with a sharp, 4% total market cap correction from August highs, according to Carina Rivas from AInvest.com. Altcoins bled, with Ethereum tanking a full 10%. This shakeout was fueled by macro uncertainty and regulatory fog. Yet, Bitcoin’s resilience stood out; people are parking funds in BTC as a perceived safe haven. This correction looks less like doom and more like a recalibration—especially as the Fed is lined up for a rate cut (the first since spring). As Tokero points out, that PPI number last week beat expectations, fueling equities to new highs, and crypto often follows suit.
Ethereum fans, listen up! Institutional appetite is spicy, especially with more mainstream DeFi rails and high-profile spot ETFs launching. Tokero notes that Bitcoin dominance is slowly slipping, and Ethereum along with projects like Solana are starting to overperform. Historically, when Bitcoin chills and ETH (and friends) start shining, we get a full-fledged altcoin season. The buzz is that September to December could deliver the biggest altcoin gains in four years.
Trading strategy this week? It’s all about risk management and rotation. With volatility up and regulatory guidelines becoming clearer (shoutout to the new SEC-CFTC frameworks and the GENIUS Act for stablecoins), institutions are creeping in strong. People are eyeing assets with high liquidity and regulatory compliance — think Bitcoin, Ethereum, and blue-chip alts. As always with crypto, keep your stop losses handy and never bet the farm on a single narrative.
