Funny thing about today. The asset built for inflation sold off when inflation showed up.

Bitcoin holders have swapped about $3.6 billion of directly held BTC into BlackRock's IBIT since in-kind creations were approved, says BlackRock digital assets head Robbie Mitchnick. He says the main driver is security concerns. They traded their keys for a ticker.

The most absurd number in CPI? According to the US Government, the cost of health insurance has declined 35% over the last 4 years...

Welp. Goldman expects “larger start-of-the-year price increases amidst ongoing cost pressures to boost inflation in January.” #CPI

The miners-turned-sellers trend continues: MARA sells $1.1B of $BTC in 6 weeks to fund AI data centers "This may give us a hint, to some degree, as to why Bitcoin has been steadily selling off here for a little while." "Bitcoin miner Marathon sold 13,597 Bitcoin for $1.1 billion in 6 weeks. Plans to sell more. MARA paid off every loan backed by its Bitcoin and says the rest of its coin can fund AI data centers." "Marathon literally raised convertible debt just like Strategy to buy more Bitcoin, and have now completely reversed. They are sellers. They're closing out that debt, and they're using that money to fund AI data centers." "That's going to become even more compelling for them in a world where Democrats are likely to push back against AI data center development because these Bitcoin miners already exist." "I don't think this trend ends. And this is consistent selling pressure on Bitcoin." "Seems that MARA found a Bitcoin use case that the bank understands here, which is just to sell Bitcoin and pay back the bank."

US Consumer Prices are now 14% above where they would be had inflation actually averaged 2% since January 2020. The Fed should be hiking rates at every meeting until that gap is erased. Instead, it continues to tolerate the destruction of purchasing power while pretending its 2% inflation target still means something. A central bank that refuses to defend its own target has lost all credibility.
