what happened
Bitcoin’s next significant test could come from Wednesday’s U.S. Consumer Price Index report, according to Bitfinex analysts. Newsmetry API reports that the firm is assessing whether the data will alter the outlook for interest rates and yields enough to give bitcoin room to move, while also testing whether spot demand remains strong.
Bitfinex says an increase in prices could indicate stronger spot demand. A recovery in net inflows into bitcoin ETFs would provide another supportive signal. Coinglass data showed that ETF flows were negative last week, with the combined net outflow reaching $678.9 million.
Bitcoin is down 1% at $82,816.
why it matters
The CPI release may affect market expectations for interest rates and yields, which can influence demand for risk assets. Flows into bitcoin ETFs remain another measure of investor interest.
