January 12 — Markets widely expect U.S. December CPI to post a temporary rebound (data out Tuesday at 21:30 ET). The uptick is mainly driven by statistical adjustments from the Labor Department’s survey normalization, not necessarily a sign of structural inflation deterioration. November’s nonfarm payrolls and CPI were released in close proximity.

On January 12, Hyperinsight data shows that after a short-term BTC price decline, the "Strategy Counterparty" whale address (0x94d) saw all long positions across 7 major coins drop below their average entry prices. Subsequently, the address closed all long positions in XRP and SOL, while gradually reducing holdings in other assets. To date, it has liquidated over $80 million in a short period, slashing its total holdings from $351 million to $270 million.
