Market still reeling from the PPI news. Crypto is presently eating shit. Hopefully we'll bounce back next week.
Bad PPI mixed with some risk-off before trump putin summit. Possible monday pump if news are good
We'll see where this leads by the stock market closing-bell in about 5 hours. It's been sort of floundering the last couple days after that PPI data, including the stock market dipping quickly at opening-bell. Like it or not, Bitcoin/crypto is reliant on the stock market's strength to keep this rally going at these heights right now. We're going to trend with more volatility alongside it, and won't recover until stocks present strength again.
Americans woke up and were like, "Oh yeah, the PPI. Almost forgot about that."
tldr; XRP's market capitalization dropped by nearly $10 billion in a single day, falling from $192.28 billion to $182.73 billion, despite Ripple's recent legal victory. The decline is attributed to newly reported U.S. inflation data, which showed significant increases in the Producer Price Index (PPI) and Consumer Price Index (CPI), sparking concerns about Federal Reserve rate cuts. The broader crypto market also saw declines, with Bitcoin and Solana experiencing notable drops. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article.

Yes. It’s the PPI data and the 4% drawdown making people panic. Part of this is due to so called influencers.. they don’t know shjt about anything and bear post in a bull market
did you see the PPI numbers? what are they talking about rate cuts
If I see high PPI data, I buy even more. High PPI means fiat has been devalued again. It just remind me of why I'm saving in BTC.
I own IBIT, but everything has risks. Here are a few of the downsides: \- big honey pot, all the world's theives and hackers will be trying to steal your bitcoin, and they know where to find it \- 0.25% per year fee But the biggest risk is this. The endgame of Triffin's Dilemma is upon us. Look at the latest PPI numbers. Look at the treasury yields. Look at the (non-existent) plan to deal with the debt and deficits. Look at the market reaction when we take steps to weaken the dollar to improve trade imbalances. Look at the break down of spending vs sources of taxes, think about what would happen to tax receipts if we reduced deficits. When the US realizes it has no way out of the debt it has incurred, they may implement capital controls and take whatever buying power they can grab. If your bitcoin is on a centralized exchange, the thief to fear is the US government. There are risks to self-custody as well, don't let these posters fool you. Look how much of it has been lost already. You need to weigh the pros and cons for yourself. Protecting buying power for decades is hard. But bitcoin helps.
I see posts like end of the bull market. People panic selling for PPI data. Screaming for a 4% drawdown.
Two important factors in yesterday's small drop: Bessent's speech, which stated the exclusion of new BTC purchases. And yesterday's PPI data. Don't worry, the game has just begun.
Are you new to crypto? Bearish PPI report just came out
M2 still going up, yes. Deficit spending still out of control, yes. Jobs situation dire, yes. CPI heading lower, yes. A single PPI reading isn’t changing anything. This is an overreaction because people are still scared of this market. Nothing changed today.
I noticed that on the charts. It's so obvious. Hours before the PPI came out everything was dumping. Of course they also had that pump last night to suck people in for that extra exit liquidity.
This isn't a crpyto thing. It's a market thing. The federal reserve controls interest rates. We want lower interest rates because money flows into more speculative assets like crypto alts. The 3 reports we use are the CPI, the PPI, and the PCE. The PCE is the most important. The CPI came out yesterday. This is an indictator of what the PCE might say. It was positive and supported the idea rates would lower. The markets went up. The PPI came out today. It was negative and supported the ideas rate cuts might cause probelms. The markets went down. This shouldn't have a big impact on your long-term decision to hold ETH or XRP.
Serious question - has anyone here actually flipped bearish because of yesterday's PPI data? For me, I think ETH's climb upwards is guaranteed to continue for at least the next week or so, then we might get a dip if powell is hawkish in in his Jackson Hole speech on 22 august, but that probably wont be a massive issue to worry about.
It jumped because of the CPI report. It declined because of the PPI report.
Today was kind of the perfect representation of what can happen in the markets without a rate cut to appease the economy's current woes. The stock market slid (but is apparently invincible) and Crypto dropped 4-5% just on worries that higher PPI is just the first sign that the Fed will leave rates alone. Then we're left with an economy that has growing unemployment, *and* rising inflation. Not a great outlook lol.
I wonder if the CPI and PPI numbers are not accurate as well and the real numbers its actually much much worse.
Wait until the federal reserve rate cuts in September, people are panick selling now because of the PPI data report eliminated the likelihood hood of larger than normal percentage-point cuts.
You don't know what you're talking about. Odds are still at 95% for a rate cut next month even after the PPI report came out. They don't base their decision on one report
because bad PPI and also because it ran a lot so it cant go up forever without taking profits
So THAT'S why we got a red candle of doom today. Nothing to do with PPI after all.
PPI increased to 0.9 from a forecasted 0.2. The largest increase in 3 years because Dickhead Don increased Tariffs again which meant wholesalers are unable to absorb the cost of the new tariffs like they were with the first ones
Since the stock market remains mostly unaffected by that PPI release, i think the timing just lined up with resistance at ATH for both BTC & ETH. That news just accelerated the dump. Back up next week.
These PPI numbers might just give us 25 basis ponts rather than the 50 most wanted
If it would be that easy. With these bad PPI numbers I think we see a sentiment reversal...
PPI numbers bring small pipi vibe
Range-trading around 120k by even +/- 2% has us swinging between 117,600 and 122,400. It can seem like a huge amount of volatility, when that's just the big numbers playing tricks on us. I don't think that PPI did the stock/crypto market any favors leading up to next month though, in terms of keeping a huge rally going. The markets might've gotten ahead of themselves pricing in rate cuts this early, this aggressively.
Barely. Stocks are not really as far down even with the PPI report. Crypto was simply on a crazy run and needs to cool off.
Never quite hit the 125k so they did whatever they had to do to keep it from getting there. Then the PPI report this morning, prior to market open, killed is (temporarily). Just another week in Bitcoin. Next week .... ATH!
In a few days, everyone would have forgotten about the PPI.
This seems like a bigger jump scare than PPI. But the one two punch is no bueno. Why does it feel so conveniently timed?
For anybody concerned about price right now, just ask yourself what has caused the Bitcoin price to go down (not even that much btw). PPI? U.S. stating they aren’t purchasing Bitcoin? Now ask yourself is that short term news? Is anybody going to care about today’s PPI or the U.S. not purchasing Bitcoin, 4 years from now? Bitcoin is unaffected long term by short term news. Nothing has changed about Bitcoin. Keep stacking accordingly.
Probably sideways until Sept 11th. Those reports will make or break the rate-cut odds, which the markets will completely react to prior to the FOMC meeting. But who knows. If the stock market just shrugs off the PPI report again, we might just go right back up anyways until then.
Idk this PPI print is the best excuse for the FED to not cut rates because "tariffs effects are starting to show" and more "wait and see" is required. However we have another round of data before the next FOMC, elsewise the rate cut probability would already be way lower I think.
PPI up makes interest rate cuts less plausible. Or a smaller cut. At least thats what I understand about it.
You guys what is your take? PPI is up. The market dumping when we know the interest rates are around the corner? Is this what is called manipulation?
Literally just because of the PPI report that shows a .9% rise in wholesale prices during July. That and the doubters thinking this run would be over by now. It's not
we cooked after PPI, Opex, then a sell the news rate cut in September
Are we cooked chat? Is PPI really that big of a deal? Won’t producers just pass the cost off onto consumers?
It's really absurd if you put it like that. Who's selling the bitcoin? And why did they buy it in the first place if hotter PPI makes them sell their bitcoin in panic mode?
for me it has been the same day. Euforia in the morning, gloom in the afternoon. Price discovery lasted like 5 minutes and can be classified as a joke. PPI panic was completely blown out of proportions. Stocks hardly flinched while bitcoin got knocked out cold. It's difficult to go anywhere if everyone starts frantically selling bitcoin as soon as anything worrying, however trivial, pops up. In my currency bitcoin basically has been flat since December last year. The only way to make money is by swing trading and it wouldn't surprise me if more and more frustrated hodlers resorted to that strategy. Anyway, see you in October at 125k. But don't blink because you can miss it!
the whitehouse crypto report "Strengthening American Leadership in Digital Financial Technology" released two weeks ago, last page: > The Reserve and the Stockpile will be capitalized by forfeited digital assets—in other words, digital assets owned by the U.S. government not to mention months ago they said the same thing, the reserve would not involve buying any bitcoin the dump was from a weak ATH break and PPI, you're just taking random disconnected things and drawing conspiracy conclusions between them
imagine not knowing the difference between CPI and PPI
PPI data was really bad. Inflation is going to get much worse due to tariffs. Stock market won't be immune to this either. This is really bad news that confirms what many have been screaming for awhile.
PPI Came in hotter than expected. Concerns for no drop in rates. Bonds selling off, DXY on the rise.
Yeah has that been updated since the PPI numbers came out? Theres maybe a 5% chance they cut now
BTC reacted a lot harder to this morning's PPI data than the stock market so far. Everyone seems completely convinced that rate cuts are on their way, and Wall Street has already front-ran pricing it in. With CPI inflation above projections and PPI much higher than expectations, it's only chiseling away at the likelihood the Fed cuts rates unless the Payroll Report is *much worse* than expectations on September 5th. That report, along with the CPI report on Sept 11th, could make things really spicy. If the markets are just confidently pricing in rate cuts next month, any more data accumulated before then which points to cracks in their rate-cut odds are going to have some detrimental effects.
Yeah that dumb PPI report caught a lot of people off guard
Who would’ve thought easily spooked crypto investors would be calling for a bear again, on a minor dip, due to a transient PPI.
BC BTC is the big mover in the crypto-verse... BTC tends to move inverse to DXY. DXY. Spiked on higher PPI. Bonds are selling off, Those players appear to be going cash and stocks.
Why does one bad PPI print from the US cause such a reaction? Isn’t bitcoin supposed to be global commodity?
Somebody getting fired today and well next see Trump with his magic market explaining that the PPI report was a scam and inflation is at historic lows. The lowest it’s ever been. Powerfully low.

PPI was up. Entire US market went down. This isn't manipulation, this algo auto-trading reacting to the bad news in real time. It will adjust over the course of the day. Maybe expand your view outside of just crypto.
Some bullshit whit PPI data
Both, no SBR and high PPI.
PPI report just came in. Much worse than expected. Looks like im buying on sale today 😋
The PPI report is what started the sell off but it was the massive leverage long positions that got totally rekt that dumped the market like that
no no no, you see it was the market manipoolatoors, they wanted number go down so they create PPI thank you for attention on this matter
Increased PPI, aka increased wholesale inflation would negate a rate cut. Rate cuts make money cheaper, and provides more of it, causing more inflation. If inflation isn't under control, we won't get cuts. Now, of inflation was steady and the jobs report was taken seriously and not thrown out as fake news, we'd have had multiple cuts by now. Tariffs are really fucking things up.
I didn't say they weren't. Your post specifically mentioned interest rates, nothing else. PPI is more than just interest rates alone.
PPI came in hot as shit. Two days ago we had a 99% chance of a cut but now I’m going to look again I bet it changed
Wasn't PPI at 0.9% today where did you get 3.3%?
You're ignoring the fact the PPI is the highest it's been in years and Trump is going to force a rate cut on top of it. Doesn't take a lot of math to figure out where this road leads into next year.
It’s not manipulation it’s a lot of investors selling, including institutions, after they heard about the PPI data. What, are institutions not allowed to panic sell too? Institutions aren’t just gonna load your bags they wanna capture their gains too
Interesting that you think interest rates == PPI
I guess you didn't read the PPI report...
I thought BTC is the hedge against PPI inflation so shouldnt BTC rise? Or are algos still considering BTC risk asset?
PPI was ment to be 0.2% for the month of July and it came in 0.9% which is probably the worst I have ever seen
DXY actually went up on PPI news.
Jfc can we stop with these “wHAt hAPpEned?!?!???” posts when a quick google search will show you that PPI came in hot 🙄 Why watch markets if you’re not going to follow data releases?
It dropped because of PPI numbers
Sold ETH and some Alts. PPI being high means less chance for September rate cuts, which means stay risk off. Wouldn't be surprised to see a Bitcoin dominance revenge rally now
Bitcoin moved big on recent PPI numbers. It looks like Bitcoin is a US asset.
PPI for July was just released, hotter than expected, lowering chances of a rate cut in September.
The news already happened, terrible PPI means most likely no cuts next month.
PPI ---> 0.9% from expected 0.3% inflation came in HOT
CPI and PPI came out hotter than expected…overreaction I think 🤔
PPI data came out inflation 0.9% higher (monthbon month) than expected
PPI came in hot as hell. Tariff inflation finally starting to kick in.
US PPI MOM results are higher than expected, that’s why.
When PPI was shit last year, I just bought some bitcoin, just did again, I don’t care anymore
PPI so damn hot. We fooked bros. Rate cuts going to get questionable again. 😭
Terrible PPI numbers, time to go max long
PPI giving us a nice temporary discount (I'm trying to be optimistic).
0.9 PPI, that was a good run boys o7
Wow PPI is a disaster. So much for rate cuts!
Just pulling back to MAs. No worries. Unless PPI is shitty.
Today PPI and tomorrow Trump will swapp some countries
Don't worry folks we get a good PPI print later and continue the pump
