August has a track record worth checking before you position for it. 2024 BTC –8.8% | ETH –22.3% Aug 5 flash crash sent BTC briefly to $49,000 and ETH to $2,111. Classic risk-off after the July rally. 2025 BTC –6.5% | ETH +18.8% BTC peaked at $124,474 on Aug 14 then faded. ETH ran to $4,957 on Aug 24 and clearly led. Two Augusts, same shape: BTC gives back highs, ETH goes its own way. Neither month delivered a clean trend — both were violent inside the range. Worth watching: BTC funding currently sits at +0.01% on Binance. Neutral, not crowded. The seasonal pressure shows up in the tape, not the positioning.
