40 жылдык жогорку инфляция июнь айында дагы 100 бит/сек өстү: Биткойн үчүн куйрук шамалы?

U.S. spenders got a brief respite from rising prices in May. But өткөн айда, a torrent of new inflationary pressures on consumer prices moved the Fed’s preferred inflation barometer up to a 40-year high.

The personal consumption expenditures price index tracking the 12-month rate of inflation rose to 6.8% in June. That’s the highest U.S. dollar inflation consumers have seen since the Volcker regime in 1982. Growing inflation through June markedly exceeded Wall Street forecasts.

Moreover, the Bureau of Labor Statistics CPI measure of inflation clocked 9.1% in June. The Federal Reserve created, lent, and spent trillions of new dollars over the past two years.

All that new money is chasing after fewer goods and services as GDP declined through Q1 and Q2. The Fed has meanwhile raised interest rates another round to whip inflation. (Bitcoin pumped on that news this week.)

Bitcoin Price Rallied as Inflation Did Its Worst

“Bitcoin price action resembles a bottom formation phase, as it has rebounded from the $17K-$20K range. After creating multiple higher highs and lows over the last few weeks, the market has shown signs of strength, indicating that a bullish trend is shaping, at least in the short term.”

Is it just a coincidence with surging prices, while unrelated factors are at play here? Or is rising inflation leading a Bitcoin price rally? Historically, the price of a coin has tracked along with the expanding rising prices.

An easy glance over the Bitcoin price chart at the 10-yr view alongside the year-over-year inflation rate will do. On a logarithmic scale, there is a noticeable positive correlation between the price of a bitcoin and consumer inflation.
