Why It Matters: Speaking with Benzinga, Avinash Shekhar, co-founder and CEO of Pi42, expressed optimism about the crypto market’s recent performance.
“Bitcoin is poised for a significant move as it approaches the $70,000 threshold,” Shekhar noted, adding that breaking this level could attract new investors.
The broader cryptocurrency market also showed positive momentum.
Adding to the positive sentiment,the Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) Price Index, the Federal Reserve’s preferred inflation measure, came in below expectations for August.
The index rose 2.2% year-over-year, down from July’s 2.5% and below the anticipated 2.3%.
In a note sent to Benzinga, Matt Mena, Crypto Research Strategist at 21Shares said the lower-than-expected PCE numbers have strengthened the dovish sentiment sparked by last week’s rate cut.
He noted that Bitcoin had already anticipated this positive news, closing above $65,000 the previous night—a level not seen since late July.
As the crypto market continues to show signs of recovery, all eyes will be on Benzinga’s Future of Digital Assets event on Nov. 19.
