Why Bitcoin’s $80K Breakout Could Face a Major September Trap

Is Bitcoin's surge back toward the $80,000 level a true bullish breakout or a massive September fakeout?

Ted and Pav dive into the technical and macro indicators signaling whether this recent $80K range is setting a trap for traders. They unpack why revenue-generating DEX tokens like Uniswap and Hyperliquid are leading gains, while broader market headwinds, such as rising Middle East tensions and a policy split between Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Fed Chair Kevin Warsh, threaten to trigger an unexpected September rate hike.

Plus, the boys analyse Strategy’s unexpected $370M Bitcoin buy after a two-month hiatus, examine historical September candle patterns, and highlight the exact price levels BTC must hold to prevent a market rejection.
