In August, Kalshi Traders Expect Bitcoin to Reach the $67,500 Mark

August has often been a less-than-favorable month for Bitcoin and the crypto market as a whole. In August 2026, traders on the prediction market Kalshi expect Bitcoin to have a better chance of showing positive results and crossing the $67,500 mark.

Crypto analyst Joao Wedson believes the market has not yet reached its bottom, so a greater decline lies ahead.

Currently, Bitcoin is trading around the $65,000 level, which is below the short-term holder realized price of $67,523.

This could create selling pressure around the level that Kalshi traders expect to be reached in August 2026. The gap between Bitcoin and the short-term cost for holders has narrowed to $2,571, the smallest gap since July 21.

If $BTC reaches this zone, the market could face a serious test due to the standoff between buyers aiming for a breakthrough and holders looking to exit positions near the breakeven point.

Currently, this market on Kalshi assigns Bitcoin a 54% probability of surpassing the $67,500 mark by the end of the month.

The probability of Bitcoin reaching the $70,000 level is 31%, while the probability of rising above $72,500 is only 13%. This indicates that traders expect a Bitcoin recovery but without a major price surge.

In August 2026, Bitcoin ETFs provide some hope for buyers. ETFs recorded their second-best weekly inflow of the year: this week, approximately 11,792 $BTC worth around $754 million flowed into ETF wallets.

Currently, Bitcoin is trading above several key support levels, indicating market stability.
