#CryptoCPIWatch Experts suspect that the higher the CPI , the higher the pressure on cryptocurrencies . If the CPI increases and decreases at a significant and quick rate , it's a sign of volatility in the crypto market .

Generally , a higher CPI reading is seen as positive ( bullish ) for the USD , while a lower reading is viewed as negative ( bearish ) .

When the CPI is rising it means that consumer prices are also rising , and when it falls it means consumer prices are generally falling. In short , a higher CPI indicates higher inflation , while a falling CPI indicates lower inflation , or even deflation .
