๐Ÿ” My Crypto CPI Watch โ€“ May 13, 2025

Big macro day ahead ๐Ÿ‘€

At 15:30 UTC, the U.S. CPI report drops โ€” and itโ€™s a major catalyst for the market.

Forecast is 2.4% YoY, same as last month. Hereโ€™s how Iโ€™m thinking through the scenarios:

๐Ÿ”ด CPI above 2.4%

Not great for the markets short term. Last month came in soft, so any upside surprise could shake things up.

Higher inflation = delayed rate cuts = pressure on risk assets like BTC & ETH.

๐ŸŸ  CPI comes in at 2.4% (expected)

Could still be a green light for the market. Bullish momentum has been building, and a neutral print may support it.

๐ŸŸข CPI below 2.4%

This is the scenario Iโ€™m watching for. Lower inflation could trigger risk-on flows and fuel the next leg for Bitcoin and altcoins. Rate cut expectations would get a serious boost.

โš ๏ธ Volatility likely around the drop โ€” no rush to position early. Watching price action after the release before making any moves.
