Ahead of the Fed's upcoming CPI report, Bitcoin and Ethereum are bullish.
The Consumer Price Index (CPI) measures the rate of change in the price of various goods and services in the United States. It's used as a key indicator for measuring inflation.
Bitcoin (BTC) broke its near-term sidewise momentum, with the leading cryptocurrency hitting a new monthly high of $18,287.30, according to data from Coingecko.
At press time, BTC is changing hands at around $18,165, up 4.1% over the past 24 hours.
Alongside the bullish price action, Bitcoin’s daily trading volumes have also risen 48.73% to $33.398 billion over the same period.
On a weekly note, Bitcoin is up 7.8%, reversing all its monthly losses.
Amid Bitcoin’s bullish run today, over $77 million worth of Bitcoin futures trades were liquidated over the past 24 hours, per data from Coinglass. Most liquidations (~93.32%) came from blown-out short positions.
Despite short-term price heroics, Bitcoin is still far from its historical all-time high of $69,044 in November 2021.
Ethereum (ETH), the second-largest cryptocurrency, with a market capitalization of roughly $168.9 billion, has also gained 4.8% over the past 24 hours, per data from Coingecko.
Since November 8, 2022, Ethereum has struggled to rally past the $1,400 resistance level. Earlier today, ETH breached that level and rallied as high as $1414.11, the coin’s new monthly high.
According to data from Coinglass, Ethereum is leading liquidation activity.
Over the past 24 hours, Ethereum futures positions totaling $112.21 million were liquidated. Of the total trades liquidated, 94.48% were short positions.
The market's largest two cryptocurrencies in Bitcoin and Ethereum have both enjoyed mild gains on the heels of the latest Consumer Price Index (CPI) report. The report measures the rate of change for the price of a basket of goods, including milk and used cars, and is used as one metric to calculate inflation in the economy. This month, prices within this basket of goods rose 0.1%, which, compared to the last report in October (0.4%), is a slight decrease in the rate, suggesting that inflation i...
Apart from the bullish price action, Ethereum-based NFT trading volume has also spiked 38.45% to $28.679 million over the past 24 hours, according to data from Cryptoslam.
Total Value Locked (TVL), a measure of DeFi activity on Ethereum, is up 2.25% to $25.33 billion, supporting the ongoing price rally.

JPMorgan Chase is expanding its stablecoin development, although CEO Jamie Dimon's expressed skepticism about their usefulness in the banking giant's second quarter earnings call on Tuesday. “We're going to be involved in both JPMorgan deposit coin and stablecoins to understand it, to be good at it,” Dimon said. “I think they're real, but I don't know why you'd want to use a stablecoin as opposed to just payment.” The move reflects the growing interest of traditional financial institutions in ad...
Jameson Lopp, CTO and co-founder of self-custody service Casa, proposed a change to Bitcoin’s software on Tuesday to address quantum computers’ catastrophic potential. The proposal, which was co-authored by five other developers, would create incentives pushing Bitcoin owners toward cryptographically-sound ways of storing the asset that can’t be compromised by complex computers, and introduce other safeguards. “It turns quantum security into a private incentive,” the proposal’s abstract states....
Popular Solana token launchpad Pump.fun debuted its token on Monday, immediately entering the top 65 tokens by market cap. It followed a massive $600 million initial coin offering, or ICO, that sold out in just 12 minutes over the weekend. Still, PUMP remains below BONK in terms of market cap, a meme coin project that is butting heads with Pump.fun as it steals Solana launchpad market share. At the time of writing, Pump.fun sits at a market capitalization of $2 billion, according to CoinGecko, m...
