Crypto markets are heading into the week of Aug. 10 with U.S. inflation data at the center of near-term price action, according to CoinDesk’s weekly preview. The key release is July CPI, due Aug. 12, with economists looking for 3.4% year-over-year and 0.1% month-over-month. ING strategists Chris Turner and Francesco Pesole said a no-hike outcome from the Federal Reserve would support a friendlier cross-asset backdrop and could allow the dollar to soften into year-end, while a hotter CPI print would likely bring Treasury yields and the dollar back to the forefront of crypto trading. Beyond macro, the calendar includes the Aug. 14 deadline for second-quarter Form 13F filings by U.S. institutional investment managers, earnings from firms including Bitdeer, Bakkt, Securitize and Gemini Space Station, governance votes across Lido DAO, QuickSwap, Seamless DAO, Decentraland DAO, GnosisDAO and Lazy Summer DAO, plus several token unlocks. AI Financial Corporation also said roughly 6.9 billion WLFI tokens covered by original lock-up terms are expected to become fully transferable on Aug. 12.

Crypto markets enter the week starting Aug. 10 with near-term direction closely tied to whether easing U.S. inflation can keep Federal Reserve rate policy on hold and reduce pressure from the dollar into year-end, according to CoinDesk’s weekly calendar.

The first major test comes with U.S. consumer price index data due Wednesday. CoinDesk said the broader issue is whether weakening labor demand is beginning to outweigh price pressures that remain above the central bank’s target.

ING strategists Chris Turner and Francesco Pesole said they expect a no-increase outcome to create a more supportive backdrop across assets.

“If we’re right on the Fed, the dollar should be due a benign decline into year-end in what should be a risk-positive climate,” they wrote in a report.

A hotter CPI print would challenge that view and place Treasury yields and the dollar back at the center of crypto trading. CoinDesk also noted that geopolitical instability remains a factor for digital asset prices. If war in the Middle East threatens key oil passageways, inflation expectations could rise, along with expectations for further rate increases.
