Bitcoin Nears $113,500 as ETFs See Outflows, Ether Holds $4,100

Bitcoin slipped to around $113,638 on Wednesday, August 20, while Ether traded near $4,176 as the crypto market cooled after recent highs. Analysts said ETF outflows, Trump’s tariffs on metals, and weak investor sentiment have triggered risk-off moves, with fear dominating short-term behaviour. Altcoins also faced pressure, though whale accumulation and institutional interest suggest September could become a turning point.
