Bitcoin (BTC) 
$105,501 has historically shown a positive trend during October, often referred to as “Uptober.” In a recent market commentary by Singapore-based trading firm QCP Capital, it was noted that Bitcoin’s average return for the month of October has been 22.9% according to historical data. This trend has been observed in eight out of the last nine years. If this growth continues this year, the price of the largest cryptocurrency could surpass its all-time high of $78,000.
What Does October Mean for Bitcoin?
QCP Capital mentioned that Bitcoin has been trading in a narrow band between $60,000 and $70,000 for the past eight months. However, with the onset of October, investors anticipate a breakout from this range. The upcoming U.S. presidential elections and the positive trends in spot ETF entries are viewed as indicators for significant movements in the cryptocurrency market.
Additionally, the funding rates in perpetual futures markets are approaching levels seen during the bull run in the first quarter of 2024. All indicators suggest that October could witness substantial upward movement.
Ethereum May Also Experience Activity
In tandem with Bitcoin, Ethereum (ETH) 
$2,524 also tends to perform well in October. Historically, Ethereum has averaged a 5% gain during the last eight Octobers.
Moreover, QCP Capital reported significant developments this morning, noting a high volume of Ethereum October options being purchased. This activity supports the bullish outlook among investors in the altcoin market.
Currently, both Bitcoin and Ethereum face a critical period in October. Historical data and current market conditions lead many cryptocurrency investors to believe this month could witness significant movements. Particularly, if Bitcoin surpasses $78,000, it would mean setting a new record, with market dynamics such as spot ETF entries and futures funding rates playing a crucial role.
