Online mentions of “Uptober” have been on a downward trend since the beginning of the month, with “Selltober” and “Octobear” becoming more prevalent on social media platforms as hopes for a powerful bull run this month diminish.
That’s according to on-chain analytics platform Santiment, which <a href="https://x.com/santimentfeed/status/1841985637525733712" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">said</a> that traders have ditched the idea that this October will repeat the month’s historical track record of being an “automatic money printer for crypto.”

But analyst Michael van de Poppe <a href="https://x.com/CryptoMichNL/status/1841855734361030783" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">said</a> that “it’s relatively standard” for BTC to correct in the first week of October. He predicted that Bitcoin’s negative trend will “reverse from next week,” and added that any dips in the next few weeks should be seen as buy opportunities.
BTC <a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/bitcoin/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">dropped</a> more than 6% over the past 7 days to trade at $61,330.03 as of 3:29 a.m. EST. Despite this decline, veteran trader “Ash Crypto” told his 1.1 million X followers that the leading crypto’s price will drop enough to excite bears before a “hard” pump.

Amid prevailing bearish sentiment, spot Bitcoin <a href="https://insidebitcoins.com/news/us-spot-bitcoin-etfs-suffer-worst-outflows-in-a-month-but-blackrock-still-records-inflows" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">ETFs</a> (exchange-traded funds) recorded their third straight day of net outflows yesterday, according to data from <a href="https://farside.co.uk/btc/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Farside Investors</a>. Collectively, the funds suffered $54.2 million outflows on Oct. 3.
Ark and 21Shares’ ARKB registered the highest withdrawals, with $58 million net outflows. Fidelity’s FBTC came in at second place after $37.2 million left its reserves.
However, not all funds suffered net outflows yesterday. BlackRock’s IBIT extended its lead in cumulative inflows after an additional $36 million entered the fund. This pushed its total inflows since its January launch to $21.558 billion.
