Bitcoin’s Fate Hinges on CPI Today
Bitcoin is trading near $64,000 as traders brace for one of the most important data releases of the month.

Bitcoin has barely moved, trading sideways between roughly $62,000 and $66,000. Volatility has been crushed. Traders are waiting for a catalyst. Today’s CPI report could be that catalyst.
