Watch US CPI/PPI and FTX Creditor Payout — Crypto Risk Appetite May Shift

I’m watching this week’s key market developments that could move both traditional and crypto markets.

12 August, Tuesday — 15:30 (US): Core Consumer Price Index (CPI) Monthly (Jul): previous 0.2%, expected 0.3%. Core CPI Yearly (Jul): previous 2.9%, expected 3.0%. Consumer Price Index (CPI) Yearly (Jul): previous 2.8%, expected 2.7%.

14 August, Thursday — 10:30 (TR): Central Bank of the Republic of Turkey (CBRT) Inflation Report. 15:30 (US): Producer Price Index (PPI) Monthly: previous 0.0%, expected 0.2%. PPI Yearly: previous 2.3%. US Initial Jobless Claims: previous 226K, expected 220K.

15 August, Friday — Geopolitics and crypto events: Donald Trump will meet Putin in Alaska. SharpLink Gaming — often called the "MicroStrategy for Ethereum" — will report earnings. The next creditor distribution from bankrupt FTX will also take place.

I’ll be monitoring how US inflation data, Turkey’s inflation outlook, PPI and labor claims affect risk sentiment, with a close eye on Ethereum-related flows and assets tied to the FTX bankruptcy.
