**Crypto Market Reacts to U.S. Inflation Data 📉**

The latest U.S. Consumer Price Index (CPI) report is out, and it’s shaking up the markets! While the headline CPI for August matched forecasts, the core rate—excluding food and energy—rose more than expected. This has likely locked in a 25 basis point rate cut by the Federal Reserve next week.

- **Bitcoin**: Down 1.5% in the past 24 hours, now at $56,500.

- **Traditional Markets**: S&P 500 and Nasdaq down 0.5%, gold dipped 0.45%.

- **Fed Rate Cut**: 85% chance of a 25 basis point cut next week.
