Crypto Rises After CPI Data Shows Lower Inflation

Following the release of lower-than-anticipated U.S. inflation data, cryptocurrencies and Bitcoin saw a surge in value. The softer inflation figures suggest a potential easing of monetary policy, boosting investor confidence in risk assets like Bitcoin and equities. 2025’s CPI figures, showing a modest 0.2% rise in April, fell short of expectations, marking the slowest inflation rate since 2021. This positive development contributed to market movements across cryptocurrencies and traditional markets alike.
