AI summary

U.S. September CPI came in hotter than expected, sending bitcoin sharply lower as traders priced in the possibility of further Federal Reserve rate hikes. The hotter inflation print strengthens the case for tighter monetary policy, which typically pressures risk assets like crypto. Bitcoin's immediate negative reaction reflects how sensitive digital assets remain to macro data and Fed policy expectations.
