JUST IN: 🇺🇸 U.S. PPI rises to 2.6% how will crypto react?

🧵 A quick breakdown for degens, traders & macro watchers: what to possible expect.

1️⃣ What is PPI?

Producer Price Index = wholesale inflation.

It shows what businesses are paying before it hits consumers.

It’s a leading indicator and the Fed watches it closely.

2️⃣ Today’s PPI: 2.6% , hotter than expected 🔥

This signals sticky inflation.

Not what markets wanted.

Translation: rate cuts are less likely soon.

3️⃣ Crypto response? Short-term = Bearish bias.

👎 BTC could dip

👎 Alts might get smacked

👎 Meme coins could bleed

Why? No Fed pivot = less liquidity = risk-off sentiment.

4️⃣ Macro eyes now shift to CPI 📅

The real market mover this week is CPI.

If that comes in hot too → brace for impact

If it cools → recovery rally possible

5️⃣ Key charts to watch today:

📈 DXY (US Dollar Index)

📈 10Y Treasury Yield

💰 Fed Rate Cut Odds (Futures)

All of these will drive crypto direction before CPI lands.

6️⃣ Degen Alpha Take:

“Hot PPI = bad short-term vibes.

But long-term? It’s just chop before the next run.

If you’re a believer don’t fade the dip.”

7️⃣ TL;DR:

🔥 Hot PPI = bearish short-term pressure

🎯 CPI now becomes critical
