A Classic Stop-Hunt Before CPI: Bitcoin Weakens as Altcoin Risk Builds
BTC rejects after clearing nearby stops while CPI and BoJ decisions loom, with altcoin liquidation structures pointing to deeper downside risk.
🪙 Crypto Market Overview
Bitcoin remains weak in the near term, especially after sweeping the 89,000–90,000 USD liquidation zone and then quickly rejecting. While some attributed the brief push to corporate headlines, the structure looked more like a textbook stop-hunt, consistent with pre-liquidation positioning rather than genuine demand.
Today’s CPI release is the main event, coming just ahead of Friday’s Bank of Japan decision. With October’s data missing, this report offers the first broad look at inflation trends in weeks. Consensus expectations sit near 3.1% headline and 3.0% core, making it a key catalyst for short-term volatility.
