Why Bitcoin is down 2.2% today
Analysis
Bitcoin fell 2.2% over the past 24 hours as a hotter-than-expected core CPI print revived concerns that the Fed may keep policy tighter for longer or even consider additional hikes, pressuring risk assets and pushing BTC below $82,000. While there were notable regulatory and adoption headlines—such as a UK judge ruling Chinese law applies to claims tied to a £4B bitcoin fraud and Standard Chartered launching bitcoin trading for wealthy UAE clients—these were secondary to the macro-driven risk-off move.
