BTC faced challenges maintaining its position above $108,000 on September 1, 2025, showing minimal signs of a rebound. Analysts indicate that the Labor Day closure, along with worries about a Bitcoin whale offloading another billion dollars of BTC, has increased caution in trading.

A sustained climb necessitates BTC to break, close, and maintain $125,000. As per the insights, Bitcoin is expected to persist in its short-term downturn.
