    Bitcoin Price Could Stay in Bear Market Until September or October, Says Grayscale

    Bitcoin price could remain in a bear market until September or October if the traditional four-year cycle continues, according to Grayscale. The firm said previous Bitcoin bear markets typically bottomed about one year after the cycle peak, with average drawdowns of around 80%. However, Grayscale believes Bitcoin price is now influenced more by macroeconomic conditions than historical cycles. The firm said Bitcoin may have already reached its bottom if the U.S. economy remains resilient and the Federal Reserve avoids additional interest rate hikes.

    Korea Stock Index Remains Volatile After 30% AI-Driven Selloff

The decline reportedly triggered margin calls for around 1.2 million trading accounts, with about 360,000 fully liquidated. Concerns over slowing AI spending weighed heavily on Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix, fueling forced selling across the market. The KOSPI is still swinging 5%–6% per session and remains about 25% below its June high.
