Binance ceased trading with FTT-related pairs on Nov. 15, 2022 amid the unfolding drama related to the now-bankrupt crypto exchange FTX.

In that same month, Binance founder Changpeng Zhao said on X that he had decided to sell all of the exchange’s reserves in FTT tokens, worth about $529 million.

Analyst sets timeline for Bitcoin’s ‘capitulation event’ that’s due next

Image
A cryptocurrency trading expert has suggested that the ongoing Bitcoin (BTC) sell-off will likely escalate in the coming weeks, noting that the asset is facing a possible capitulation event . In a TradingView post on August 3, analyst Alan Santana noted that this projection is based on a detailed examination of historical price movements and critical technical indicators, which forewarn investors of significant market turbulence ahead. According to the expert, Bitcoin surged past $70,000 on July 29, 2024, but the euphoria was short-lived. The cryptocurrency couldn’t sustain this price level for even 15 minutes, swiftly falling below the mark and trading below $65,000.

After worst ‘Uptober’ Bitcoin now likely to crash to $87,000, warns expert

Bitcoin’s (BTC) bullish ‘Uptober’ reputation was shattered this year after the cryptocurrency ended October with a nearly 4% loss, marking its worst October performance since 2014. Now, according to cryptocurrency analyst and TradingView contributor TradingShot, the weak monthly close may signal the start of a deeper correction, potentially sending Bitcoin toward the $87,000 region in the weeks ahead.

Bitcoin Price Prediction: BTC’s Seven-Year ‘Uptober’ Streak Shattered By Macro Jitters, ETF Outflows

Image
The Bitcoin price tumbled 4% in October, breaking its seven-year ‘Uptober’ streak as ETF outflows, profit-taking, and macro jitters weighed on the market. An Analysis by Fortune showed it was Bitcoin’s fourth-worst October performance since 2013 and the worst in the past seven years. That left BTC trailing the S&P 500 stock index, which rose 2.3%. The sell-off came as more than $550 million flowed out of major Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs late in the month, with analysts saying profit-taking also played a part as Bitcoin treasury firms, including Michael Saylor’s Strategy, also slowed their BTC buying.
