#CryptoCPIWatch Today fresh data on the CPI (Consumer Price Index) in the USA was released, and the crypto market reacted immediately. Inflation turned out to be higher than expected — this increases pressure on the Fed and lowers the chances of an early rate cut.

Bitcoin reacted with volatility, short-term traders took losses, and altcoins went into the red zone. Tension is rising: the market is still hoping for a loosening of monetary policy, but such figures may delay a reversal of the trend.

For hodlers — it is time to hold. For traders — volatility can be both a threat and an opportunity. We are monitoring news from the Fed and waiting for confirmations or refutations of market expectations.

Crypto once again shows how sensitive it is to macroeconomics. Stability is far from guaranteed.
