🚨 Bitcoin just got another reason to be cautious.
$BTC is now around $77.2K — and today's move isn't happening in isolation.
The U.S. just released August PPI data:
📈 PPI: +5.4% YoY
📈 Previous month: +4.8%
🛢️ Brent crude: around $105
🏦 Fed hike odds: now around 70%
That's a pretty uncomfortable combination for risk assets.
Why?
Higher oil → more inflation pressure
Higher inflation → less room for rate cuts
Higher yields → more pressure on speculative assets
And Bitcoin is feeling it.
But here's the important part:
Tomorrow's CPI is now even more important.
If CPI confirms that inflation is heating up, BTC could remain under pressure.
If CPI comes in softer than expected, we could see a sharp relief move because so much Fed-hike fear is already being priced in.
So I'm watching $77K closely.
Not because it's a magic number — but because the market is about to tell us whether this is simply a pullback or the start of something deeper.
Tomorrow's CPI could be the real test.
