A snapshot of today’s market action, key levels to watch for Bitcoin and Ethereum, and what to expect from upcoming economic data.
Crypto snapshot
Bitcoin: ~$94,883, up about 3.0% on the day, range $91,821 to $95,804. (CoinGecko)
Ethereum: ~$3,292, up about 5.1%, range $3,128 to $3,350. (CoinGecko)
Solana: ~$144.41, up about 1.8%, range $141.57 to $147.08. (CoinGecko)
What actually drove today’s tape
Crypto kept a bid after Tuesday’s CPI came in in line with expectations, reinforcing the view that the Fed can stay on hold near-term while markets keep pricing 2026 cuts. (Reuters)
A fresh boost came from Washington after U.S. senators introduced a draft bill aimed at clarifying crypto market rules and regulator jurisdiction, which helped sentiment across majors. (Reuters)
Rates were also supportive with the U.S. 10Y near 4.16%, keeping traders focused on the next inflation and growth prints for direction. (Investing.com) (Reuters)
“Crypto equities” got a temporary relief catalyst
Bitcoin proxy equities stayed in focus with MicroStrategy among notable movers, tracking the spot bounce as BTC held near the top of its daily range. (Investing.com)
The regulatory headline also helped the “tradfi crossover” narrative today, even though the bill still has a long path in Congress. (Reuters)
Broader markets context (risk appetite)
U.S. equity futures were slightly softer today, with US 500 down about 0.38%, Nasdaq down about 0.10%, and US 30 down about 0.27%, which kept risk appetite more selective. (Investing.com)
The U.S. 10Y yield was around 4.157%, and the tape continued to key off yields because softer rates tend to ease financial conditions and support higher beta assets. (Investing.com)
Key levels and “today read” (simple and usable)
Bitcoin: 95,000 is the nearby psychological line, today’s low near 91,821 is the defend, reclaim 95,804 and the next upside magnet is 98,000 then 100,000.
ETH: Support is near 3,128, reclaim 3,350 and it keeps the path open toward 3,500 if rates cooperate.
What to watch next (next 24 to 36 hours)

Today’s bottom line
Crypto is holding a constructive tone into the next macro prints, with regulation headlines adding marginal tailwind while rates remain the main throttle. (Reuters)
A meaningful shift in bias likely comes from how yields react to today’s PPI and retail sales, not from price drifting inside the current BTC and ETH ranges. (Investing.com) (BLS) (U.S. Census Bureau)
