Bitcoin News Today: Bitcoin Bull Cycle Could Peak in Late September 2025 Says Peter Brandt

Bitcoin’s bull market appears to be approaching a pivotal moment, with prominent technical analyst Peter Brandt offering a potential timeframe for when the current surge may reach its peak. Based on historical bull cycles, Brandt estimates the current cycle could peak in late September 2025, with a projected window of plus or minus two weeks around September 22, 2025 [1]. This projection draws from past cycles spanning approximately 75 weeks, including those in 2015–2017, 2018–2021, and 2022–2025.

Bitcoin is currently trading near $120,130, approaching its recent high of $122,335. The short-term trend remains strong, though traders are closely monitoring key support levels at around $102,200 and $92,876, which have historically served as critical psychological benchmarks during periods of volatility. The asset has maintained a position above $110,000 since early July, reinforcing its bullish momentum [2].

Brandt’s analysis suggests that late September could become a defining moment for the 2025 crypto market, potentially marking the "Brandt Top." If the rally peaks as predicted, it could set a clear turning point for the remainder of the year. A sharp downturn afterward might indicate the bull cycle is entering its final phase, prompting both institutional and retail investors to reassess their positions for Q4.

Market sentiment is also being shaped by several external factors, including spot Bitcoin ETF flows, macroeconomic indicators, and liquidity conditions. ETF demand has played a significant role in absorbing supply, but shifts in U.S. economic data—such as inflation numbers and interest rate expectations—could influence the trajectory of Bitcoin’s price.

If the Federal Reserve opts for a rate cut in September, it could extend the Bitcoin rally, potentially pushing the asset into uncharted territory before a correction. Conversely, stronger-than-expected economic data could strengthen the U.S. dollar, reduce demand for Bitcoin, and test the aforementioned support levels.

Brandt also highlighted Stellar (XLM) as having the “most bullish chart” in the crypto market, noting that a decisive move above $1 would be a necessary step toward a larger breakout. This reflects his broader analytical approach, which emphasizes technical patterns and price action as key indicators [4].

While Brandt’s framework provides a strategic timeframe for traders to monitor, he cautions that Bitcoin remains highly unpredictable during high-volatility periods. Whether or not the September 2025 timeframe marks the peak of this cycle, the month could serve as a pivotal chapter in the broader crypto market narrative.
