The US core CPI is below expectations, but this does not mean that the logic of Bitcoin has been weakened. Ultimately, Bitcoin is not just an inflation trade, but a hedge against monetary system instability and liquidity flooding. You could say it’s betting on the failure of human long-term self-discipline — and this bet has never gone out of style.

Interestingly, the decline in CPI data actually reduces the likelihood of prolonged tight monetary policy. For Bitcoin, this precisely confirms a certain slow variable. This is not the end, but the beginning of the next phase.

Amazing, to put it simply, the central bank still needs to keep easing liquidity, and Bitcoin's fundamentals are basically unaffected.

CPI decrease = accelerated money printing, this logic is truly absolute. Bitcoin is just betting that humans can never fix the problem of inflation.

nah actually the math on this doesn't check out... lower cpi = fed keeps printing, sure, but that's been the baseline assumption since 2020 lol. the "slow variable confirmation" is just copium for why we're still range-bound tbh

CPI has fallen, so should we be bearish on the Federal Reserve? I need to think this through; it feels like the core logic.

Haha, CPI low is actually a good thing? I need to ponder this logic. --- Basically, it's betting on the central bank to keep easing liquidity, and this bet indeed never goes out of style. --- Slow variable confirmation... sounds like talking about some inevitability, a bit absolute. --- Wait, CPI decrease → easing → Bitcoin benefits, this logical chain is quite clever. --- Ultimately, it's still about not trusting this monetary system, so just hoard coins and be done with it. --- I agree that it's not about inflation trading, but the real test is still ahead. --- Oh, this is just the beginning, were the previous events just appetizers? --- Betting on human self-discipline failure... Wow, that's a perfect phrase, it truly never goes out of fashion haha. --- What are the signals indicating the start of the next phase? Feels like it's still gathering strength.

Haha, CPI going down is actually a good thing? I need to think about this logic carefully. --- Basically, it's betting on humanity to keep self-destructing, and this bet indeed never goes out of style. --- Slow variable confirmation... sounds impressive, but I believe in this set. --- So is this the bottom or the prelude? Who can say for sure. --- Finally, someone has figured it out. The crypto circle just loves to use inflation as a万能理由. --- Start of the next phase? Then I need to see how many bullets are left in my wallet. --- Unstable monetary system = long-term short fiat currency = long BTC, an old formula. --- This article is going to be popular, but I bet most people still won't understand it.

This statement is a bit interesting. Is a lower CPI actually a positive signal? What does the slow variable confirm? I feel like it's still the same old logic.
