US CPI shocks the market beyond expectations! Inflation stays high and persistent—where will the crypto market go?

💥April CPI data completely detonates the market! Morgan Stanley’s warning is fully confirmed💥

Official CPI year-over-year 3.8%, core CPI year-over-year 2.8%—both exceed expectations and hit a new three-year high!
Inflation is not just a short-term scare, but a structural, long-term stickiness. Triple pressure from energy, rents, and tariffs is maxed out—so inflation simply can’t come down!

⚠️The crypto market is directly facing a critical liquidity test⚠️

1. Fed rate-cut expectations are completely wiped out. The market has even started pricing in the risk of resuming rate hikes, and it’s effectively set that high interest rates will stay longer
2. The US dollar strengthens, US Treasury yields surge, and liquidity for global risk assets keeps tightening
3. BTC/ETH face pressure in the short term. Risk appetite cools fast, and the pressure for range-bound pullbacks increases

✅Key views on the crypto market
In the short term, tightening expectations suppress the crypto market, and the trend will most likely remain volatile within a wide range—be cautious about short-term volatility risk;
But under a long-term stagflation backdrop, the Fed’s policy is trapped in a dilemma. As cryptocurrencies—decentralized anti-inflation assets—their scarcity value will gradually stand out. Pullbacks may actually be the key window for long-term positioning!

Next, closely watch PPI data and hawkish Fed remarks. The logic for global major asset classes will fully shift toward stagflation trading, and the timing and tempo of the crypto market will be rebuilt accordingly! $BTC @Gate Live $GT $ETH
