🚨 BREAKING: 90% CHANCE OF A FED RATE HIKE IN DECEMBER! A rate hike sounds scary. But what does it actually mean for crypto? Let me explain it simply. 1️⃣ A rate hike means borrowing money becomes more expensive. Loans, credit cards, everything costs more. 2️⃣ When money is expensive, investors become careful. They move away from risky assets like crypto and stocks. 3️⃣ That is why crypto often falls when a rate hike is expected. It is not about Bitcoin itself. It is about the cost of money.

2️⃣ When money is expensive, investors become careful. They move away from risky assets like crypto and stocks.

3️⃣ That is why crypto often falls when a rate hike is expected. It is not about Bitcoin itself. It is about the cost of money.

The CPI number that shook the market — in plain words.

Bitcoin now $73,350 (-2.0% in 24h), day low $72,727 — an 11-week low.

US inflation for October came in at +0.4%. Markets expected +0.3%. Core inflation was +0.3% vs +0.2% expected.

• Over $632M in crypto positions got liquidated, most of them longs
• A December Fed hike is now priced as certain — the only question is 25 or 50 points
• Odds of a 50-point hike jumped from 1% to 15% after the number
• There was no yearly inflation number at all — the shutdown stopped the data collection

Why 50 is even on the table: Fed governor Waller said before the release that core at +0.3% or more could justify it. Core came in at exactly +0.3%.

This is also the last CPI the Fed sees before its December 8–9 meeting. So the market went from hoping for rate cuts to pricing a hike. That is the whole story of this week in one number.

Fed Governor Waller said overnight he'd back a December hike even if inflation came in cool. October CPI then came in at 0.4% against a 0.3% forecast. $BTC was near $74,300 before the number. It's around $73,200 now. Core CPI, the version without food and energy, rose 0.3% against 0.2% expected. September's headline was 0.6%, so prices did slow down, just not as much as anyone hoped. There's still no year-on-year figure, because October 2025 was never fully collected during the shutdown. Waller had a second line ready too: a hot print could make a 50bp move worth considering. The 2-year Treasury yield jumped about 14bp after the release as traders priced in a small chance of exactly that. Bitcoin dipped to about $73,500 in the first five minutes and kept sliding from there. Roughly $200M of crypto longs were closed out around the release. A hike was already the base case before the print. The data didn't change the plan. It just signed it. #CPI #Fed NFA. DYOR.

CPI came in hot on both measures, and the Fed hike is now almost fully priced in. ⚠️ The Bureau of Labor Statistics reported October CPI up 0.4 percent, above the 0.3 percent economists expected, and core CPI up 0.3 percent against a 0.2 percent forecast, with food up 0.5 percent, energy up 0.7 percent and housing up 0.3 percent, according to Bitcoin Magazine. 📰 Futures markets now put the chance of a December rate hike at 89 percent, up from about 70 percent last week, according to the CME FedWatch tool cited by Stocktwits, and Fed Governor Christopher Waller has said he is open to a half point move. My reading is that a hot print on both measures leaves the Fed little room to wait, so the market has to price higher rates for longer, and that is why Bitcoin fell below 74,000 dollars within minutes of the release. Does a near certain December hike mean Bitcoin stays under pressure, or is the bad news already in the price? 🤔 Follow for more trades. #Crypto #Bitcoin #FuturesTrading #TradingSignals #Fed
