Bitcoin has retraced to around $79,000, updating its low near $77,700 yesterday. Ethereum has also stabilized after dipping to $2,430 and is now trading at $2,489, aiming for a return to $2,500.

The scenario discussed before the publication has unfolded almost to the worst of the two options. The PCE index for July increased by 0.2% month-on-month against an expected 0.1%, while year-on-year inflation accelerated to 3.7% against a forecast of 3.6%. However, the core figure, most important for the Federal Reserve, came in exactly at the expected level of 3.3%. The U.S. GDP for the second quarter confirmed the preliminary estimate of 1.5% year-on-year growth.
Bitcoin reacted with a sharp reversal. The asset, which was trading earlier in the session at $81,000, plummeted below $78,000 immediately after the report was published, erasing a significant portion of the daily gain. The movement was particularly painful given that the market was already entering the data day with caution; on August 25, the total market capitalization of cryptocurrencies dropped by 1.6% in anticipation of the publication. The reaction mechanics are standard for this cycle: higher-than-expected inflation raises concerns about the limited scope for the Fed to ease policy, drives up Treasury yields, and strengthens the dollar, reducing investors' appetite for volatile assets like Bitcoin precisely at the moment when the market was building positions in anticipation of continued rate cuts.
Cryptocurrency stocks traded on traditional exchanges also suffered. Strategy lost 4.58%, dropping to around $87.30; MARA fell by 4.69%; Circle's stock plummeted by 5.13%; and Bitmine retreated by 1.17%. Notably, this reaction mirrors a pattern seen a month prior, where Bitcoin struggled to hold its positions even after a significantly softer-than-expected CPI report in July, indicating the overall fragility of the current rally regardless of the specific macroeconomic surprise.
