MARKET UPDATE – August 25, 2025
Bitcoin faced a sudden flash crash as a whale dumped 24,000 BTC, briefly pushing the price below $111K before recovering around $112K–113K. BTC dominance dropped near 57–58%, opening the door for a potential altcoin season. Meanwhile, Ethereum rallied ~9% this week, briefly breaking above $4,900 before cooling near $4,700. However, signals like RSI divergence and a doji candle suggest possible correction ahead.
The Fear & Greed Index sits at 47 (Neutral), showing a balanced sentiment. Heavy ETF outflows add pressure, while institutions continue shifting focus toward ETH and select altcoins.
