Bitcoin Awaits September CPI

[kevin1]

Bitcoin faces a key test as the U.S. CPI report drops today, Oct. 24, 2025, at 8:30 a.m. ET (12:30 PM UTC). Consensus calls for a 0.4% rise in headline inflation and 0.3% in core prices month-over-month.

BTC has been range-bound around $107K–$111K, with funding rates neutral and option volatility rising into the 30s—traders are bracing for movement, but major swings remain uncertain.
