September 2025 did not start with favorable news for the cryptocurrency market; however, emerging data throughout the month is laying the groundwork for a potential rebound.
September predictions for cryptocurrencies
Recent assessments revealed that the Producer Price Index (PPI) data is crucial, with upcoming ETF figures being of particular importance. Notably, Bitcoin ETFs experienced record daily net inflows exceeding $400 million for the first time in September, with a significant inflow of $741.5 million noted yesterday into BlackRock’s and Fidelity’s ETFs.
Inflation in the United States
Inflation increased by 2.9% in the 12-month period ending in August, up from 2.7% in July. This development has cast aside the Federal Reserve’s soft landing scenario of steady inflation decline. Despite reporting the highest annual inflation rate since 2025 began, markets welcomed the recent figures due to pricing based on previously feared worst-case tariff scenarios.
Market impact and outlook
As the Federal Reserve meeting approaches, it would not be surprising to see Bitcoin testing the $116,000 and $118,000 levels. If the Fed refrains from making open-ended comments about inflation and focuses on the risks posed by weak employment, September’s historical downward trend might become an exception this year.
Thus, September presents intriguing prospects for the cryptocurrency market, despite the current economic challenges and inflation risks.
