Bitcoin Risk Appetite Surges After US CPI Results
- Main event results in Bitcoin rallying above $111,000.
- Anticipated Federal Reserve rate cuts boost market interest.
- Renewed crypto interest amid softer inflation data.
Bitcoin risk appetite increased after the US released softer-than-expected CPI results for September 2025, pushing Bitcoin prices above $111,000.
The CPI results fueled speculation of potential Federal Reserve rate cuts, revitalizing interest in risk assets and significantly impacting Bitcoin’s value.
Bitcoin’s risk appetite has surged following the September 2025 US CPI release, showing a milder-than-expected inflation rate. This led Bitcoin to rebound above $111,000, with increased market volatility as investors speculated on Federal Reserve rate cuts. Key players such as CryptoQuant have noted changing market dynamics.
Institutional analysts like Geoffrey Kendrick and VanEck teams continue to monitor these shifts. Bitcoin prices jumped after the CPI print, signaling reviving risk appetite.
The immediate market reaction saw Bitcoin surpass $111,000 following the softer CPI result. Market participants are actively positioning for potential policy easing, as the Consumer Price Index bolstered rate-cut expectations.
The softer inflation data has implications for various financial assets, particularly BTC, which showed significant gains. Cryptocurrencies like ETH, XRP, and SOL also exhibited volatility, though BTC was the primary beneficiary.
Historically, Bitcoin price spikes often follow softer inflation reports or dovish central bank actions. Previous CPI releases displayed similar moves, positioning Bitcoin as a prime beneficiary during rate-cut expectation periods.
Experts predict potential outcomes, including further market adjustments and regulatory impacts. Geoffrey Kendrick anticipates a brief dip due to geopolitical tensions but foresees a substantial rebound for Bitcoin, showcasing its role in response to monetary policies.
“I expect a brief dip below $100,000 soon amid U.S.–China tensions but see it as a final buying opportunity before a rebound toward $200,000 by year-end.” — Geoffrey Kendrick, Head of FX Research, Standard Chartered.
