BitMEX: Shutdown Confirmed for September 2026

BitMEX will shut its exchange on 23 September 2026, prompting users to close positions and withdraw funds immediately after a decade of pioneering perpetual swaps that defined early Bitcoin derivatives markets.

Price action on the 4h chart shows BTC at $65128.24 holding a bullish structure above the EMA50 at $65024.76 and EMA200 at $63760.92, yet the MACD death cross at 66.42 signals fading momentum while RSI at 46.18 stays neutral inside the Bollinger band with upper resistance at $66878.2; this confluence points to a likely test of the $64718.09 lower band before any sustained move higher in ongoing BTC price prediction scenarios amid broader crypto market volatility.
