[U.S. October CPI rises 0.4% from prior month, above forecast]

The U.S. Department of Labor said the October consumer price index rose 0.4% from a month earlier, above the 0.3% forecast. Cryptocurrencies, which are generally treated as risk assets, tend to react sensitively to CPI data, a key inflation gauge that influences the Federal Reserve’s interest-rate decisions. A stronger-than-expected CPI reading can weaken expectations for Fed rate cuts, while a softer reading can be interpreted as a sign of easing inflation and strengthen expectations for rate cuts. Risk assets generally tend to rise when expectations grow for greater liquidity tied to lower rates.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics did not release the year-over-year change for October because the government shutdown disrupted data collection that month.

[Bitcoin may be at best buying opportunity ever, fund co-founder says]

Mark Moss, co-founder of Bitcoin Opportunity Fund, said Bitcoin’s current price could mark the best buying opportunity in its history as Wall Street firms and banks move into the market, Cointelegraph reported.

Moss projected Bitcoin will hit a new all-time high in 2027. Despite the recent drop in Bitcoin prices, Moss said selling pressure is easing, pointing to Bitcoin’s limited downside even after the $6.3 billion Binance hack. He also cited data showing Bitcoin rose by an average of about 53% in the 12 months after past U.S. midterm elections, although the analysis is based on three completed midterm cycles since 2014. If that pattern repeats, Moss said, a fresh record high in 2027 would be possible.

On corporate Bitcoin treasury strategies, Moss described Strategy (MSTR) as the publicly traded company with the strongest return potential over the next 10 years. Over the long term, he said Bitcoin could reach $1 million if it competes successfully with stocks, bonds, gold and real estate and absorbs a meaningful share of global investor assets. He added that this scenario assumes financial advisers gradually shift part of client portfolios from stocks or bonds into Bitcoin, and warned the outlook could fail if Bitcoin’s security or decentralization is undermined.

[Glassnode says 35.4% of BTC supply may be exposed to future quantum attacks]

About 7.12 million BTC, or 35.4% of Bitcoin’s total supply, has exposed public keys and could be vulnerable to future quantum-computing attacks, on-chain analytics firm Glassnode said. Of that total, 25.8% of supply was exposed through address reuse, while 11.6% was linked to exchange custody addresses, according to Glassnode.

Glassnode said moving BTC with exposed public keys to new addresses can eliminate the related risk. The firm added the exposure does not mean assets face immediate theft, and a real attack would require quantum computers powerful enough to derive private keys from public keys.
