🌐 Macro-Economic Update

Key Data This Week:
ISM Non-Manufacturing PMI in the United States recorded a figure well above market expectations, marking 54.1 compared to an expected value of 53.1. The American economy remains solid and resilient.
This could lead the Federal Reserve to keep interest rates high, causing a strong downward pressure on the crypto world.
 

• Event: ISM Services PMI
• Date: 07/01/2025

What You Should Do:

Evaluate Market Exposure: Review your crypto positions and consider reducing exposure to highly volatile assets, as high interest rates may continue to impact sentiment negatively.
Focus on Resilient Assets: Shift focus to cryptocurrencies with stronger fundamentals or real-world use cases that may weather economic uncertainty better.

CPI Economic Insights

Core Inflation Slows to 3.2% in December, Easing Market Concerns

The latest inflation report brings some relief to markets as the Core Consumer Price Index (CPI) annual rate dipped to 3.2% in December, slightly better than the expected 3.3%. The overall Consumer Price Index also rose 0.4% month-over-month, aligning with a 2.9% yearly increase, signaling a gradual cooling of inflation.

What This Means for Crypto:

• Opportunities in Volatility: Slowing inflation could reduce pressure on the Fed to hike rates further, providing breathing room for crypto markets to stabilize and potentially recover.
• Long-term Strategy: Traders should remain cautious of mixed signals, such as elevated transportation costs and sticky shelter prices, which could influence market sentiment.
• Keep an Eye on May-June: With potential rate cuts anticipated mid-year, crypto traders might find strategic opportunities to prepare for a more favorable macroeconomic environment.

💹 Wallet Inflows & Outflows Weekly Report
 

Top 2 Cryptocurrencies (BTC, ETH)

• BTC: -$12.28M outflow in the last week
• ETH: -$180.20M outflow in the last week

The latest wallet activity report highlights significant outflows for the top two cryptocurrencies, Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH), indicating a shift in market dynamics.
Outflows represent assets moving out of exchanges into private wallets or other storage solutions. This can indicate reduced selling pressure, as investors may be holding assets for the long term or moving funds for staking or DeFi activities.

Implications for BTC and ETH:

• Bitcoin’s Modest Outflow: The relatively small outflow may suggest stable market sentiment with no major shifts in buying or selling behavior.
• Ethereum’s Large Outflow: A significant outflow like ETH’s could signal confidence in long-term holding, possibly tied to staking demand or anticipation of future developments.
