Market Update — November 10, 2026
### 🚨 CRYPTO MARKET CRASH AFTER US CPI DATA
The crypto market came under heavy selling pressure after the latest US inflation report came in hotter than expected.
Why did the market crash?
The October US CPI figures were:
* Headline CPI: 0.4% vs 0.3% expected.
* Core CPI: 0.3% vs 0.2% expected.
This unexpected inflation increase triggered fears of another Federal Reserve interest rate hike in December. CoinDesk +1
### Bitcoin and crypto market reaction
Bitcoin (BTC)
### $73,600
Ethereum (ETH)
### $2,060
Approximate reported price
### Why are investors selling?
* Higher inflation increases interest-rate concerns.
* A stronger US dollar puts pressure on crypto.
* Investors become less willing to take risks.
* Leveraged long positions get liquidated, accelerating selling.
* Bitcoin ETF outflows add further pressure.
Around $178 million in crypto long positions were liquidated within an hour of the CPI release. TradingView News
### 🔮 What happens next?
* Bullish scenario: BTC holds support and buyers return.
* Bearish scenario: Continued selling could push BTC towards $70,000.
* Key factor: Federal Reserve policy expectations and ETF inflows.
My view: Don't rush into buying during panic. Watch Bitcoin's support levels, volume and liquidation activity. Avoid excessive leverage.
This is market analysis, not financial advice.
\*The biggest question now: Is this a temporary correction or the beginning of a deeper crypto bear market?
