Bitcoin continued to hold within the range of $76,500 to $77,000 in the United States before the release of the CPI data, but this support level is becoming fragile. The market is currently focusing on whether inflation figures will exceed expectations and whether this will affect the subsequent statements from the Federal Reserve.
CPI Prior Market Focus
The U.S. is expected to see a growth rate of 3.4% in CPI of August. Reports mention that higher average oil prices in August may increase the risk of inflation readings being on the high side. If the data exceeds expectations, pressure on the Federal Reserve could rise.
Key ranges of Bitcoin
Currently, BTC is still trading in the range of $76,500 to $77,000. If it falls below $76,500, the next support level could be around $72,000 to $74,000.
