AI summary
US September inflation came in at 3.7%, pushing bond yields higher and doubling market-implied odds of another Fed rate hike before the October 27-28 meeting. The stronger dollar and rising yields triggered a Bitcoin sell-off as traders priced in tighter monetary conditions. Crypto traders care because higher rates and a firm dollar typically drain liquidity from risk assets, pressuring BTC and altcoin prices in the near term.
