Bitcoin (BTC) has recently fallen amid signs of overheating in the U.S. economy, according to analysis. There are opinions that volatility could intensify this week as multiple macroeconomic indicators are scheduled to be released.
On the 13th, Singapore-based virtual asset (cryptocurrency) trading firm QCP Capital stated through its Telegram channel, "The non-farm payrolls announced last Friday surprised the market with 256,000 cases, exceeding expectations," adding, "Following the release of macroeconomic indicators, the outlook for rate cuts has disappeared, and the stock market, including Bitcoin, continues to decline." There is also analysis that Trump's large-scale tariff policy is fueling inflation concerns.
QCP Capital analyzed, "Despite macroeconomic headwinds, Bitcoin is maintaining its support level at $91,000, and Ethereum at $3,100," adding, "Implied volatility also remains relatively low."
They continued, "Just because volatility is low doesn't mean the market is safe," adding, "Uncertainty remains ahead of the announcements of the Producer Price Index on the 14th, the Consumer Price Index on the 15th, and unemployment claims on the 16th."
They also added, "This week, virtual assets like Bitcoin will be tested on whether they can prove their worth as a hedge against inflation."
