TOP STORY
Bitcoin on Wednesday briefly touched $114,000 following cooler-than-expected PPI data, prompting speculation about whether this rally can extend.
Prominent analyst Kevin highlighted in an exclusive Patreon post that with PPI, CPI and the FOMC meeting on the horizon, the focus should remain on key levels across short and long time frames rather than overanalyzing charts.
PPI data came in cold with a 0.1% month-over-month drop vs. the expected growth of 0.3%.
Annual change stands at 2.6% year-over-year compared to the 3.3% forecasted.
So what does that mean for this bullish rally?

Bitcoin's path forward hinges on the Federal Reserve's Sep. 17 decision, with markets pricing around 30 basis points of easing.
What Happened: Futures point to a high probability of a quarter-point move, while odds of a larger 50 basis point cut have grown — a scenario some analysts say could propel Bitcoin closer to all-time highs.
Data from CME Group's FedWatch tool shows nearly 90% probability of a 25bps reduction and roughly 10% chance of a 50bps move.
Polymarket's $21 million prediction market suggests slightly higher odds for the larger cut, with an 82% chance of a 25bps cut, while a 50bps cut has a 15% chance.
So, what can you expect?
