#CryptoCPIWatch Inflation Eases, Markets React

The U.S. Consumer Price Index (CPI) for April 2025 showed an unexpected slowdown, with annual inflation dipping to 2.3% from March's 2.4%, and core inflation (excluding food and energy) rising to 2.8% . This moderation in inflation has influenced various markets, including cryptocurrencies.

Bitcoin (BTC) is currently trading at $104,272, reflecting a 3.09% increase over the past 24 hours. Earlier today, BTC experienced a dip below $102,400 as traders engaged in profit-taking ahead of the CPI release . Similarly, Ethereum (ETH) is trading at $2,631.57, up 8.12% from the previous close.

The cryptocurrency market's response underscores the sensitivity to macroeconomic indicators like inflation, as investors assess the potential impact on monetary policy and risk assets.
