Will CPI Data Bring Breakthrough Moment For BTC Price?</a> appeared first on <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://coinpedia.org">Coinpedia Fintech News</a></p> 
  <p>As Bitcoin continues to hold the spotlight, it has been causing a stir among investors due to its consolidation below $31,000. With the latest Consumer Price Index (CPI) data now released and falling below expectations, the question arises whether bullish CPI will create a <a href="https://coinpedia.org/altcoin/bitcoinbtc-and-ethereumeth-price-prediction-in-the-upcoming-bull-run/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">pump moment</a> in the BTC price.&nbsp;</p> 
  <h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="bullish-cpi-sparks-hope-among-bitcoin-investors">Bullish CPI Sparks Hope Among Bitcoin Investors&nbsp;</h2> 
  <p>Today’s release of the June Consumer Price Index (CPI) data by the Bureau of Labor Statistics has sparked a wave of positivity across the Bitcoin and broader cryptocurrency market. The recent statistics indicate an unexpected slowdown in inflation, fueling optimism for a favorable future outlook.</p> 
  <p>According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), the U.S. inflation rate, as gauged by the Consumer Price Index (CPI), experienced a decline from 4.0% in May to 3.0% in June on a year-over-year basis, contrary to the anticipated dip to 3.1%. In terms of monthly changes, the CPI saw an increase of 0.2% in June, compared to 0.1% in May, albeit falling short of the projected 0.3% rise.</p> 
  <p>Bitcoin’s price, which has largely been oscillating between $30,000 and $31,000 in recent days, experienced a slight increase to $30,900 following the report’s release and eventually broke above $31K. However, it quickly relinquished this gain, settling just below $30,800.</p> 
  <p>The report released today indicates a continued downward trend in headline inflation, with June’s rate of 3% marking a decrease from a 2022 peak of 9.1%. Perhaps of greater significance to Federal Reserve policymakers is the shift in the core inflation rate, which dropped to 4.8% from 5.3% after persistently staying above 5% throughout the year.</p> 
  <h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-bitcoin-touches-a-low-near-30-5k">Bitcoin Touches A Low Near $30.5K&nbsp;</h2> 
  <p>Bitcoin experienced a rebound from the 20-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) at $30,600 to continue its uptrend. Following the CPI news, Bitcoin experienced a massive swing, with a low formed at $30.5K and a high at $31K. This suggests both bulls and bears are fighting heavily and a quick retest will determine strength.</p>

  <p>Currently, Bitcoin is trading at $30,782, with a surge of 0.8% from yesterday’s rate. To avert a potential decline, bulls will need to hold the price above $30,500 and drive it toward the resistance zone, which lies between $31,000 and $31,500. This zone is expected to face significant selling pressure, but if the bulls manage to surpass this hurdle and $32.5K, the price could potentially surge toward the next key resistance at $40,000.</p> 
  <p>On the flip side, if the price dips below the 20-day EMA, it could prompt numerous short-term bulls to cash in their profits. This could lead the price to drop towards $29,710. A correction of this level would imply that the price might decline further and consolidate at $27,500.&nbsp;</p>
