Challenging Week Ahead For Crypto

Wednesday will see the release of Consumer Price Index (CPI) data along with earnings numbers from major companies. Both could put pressure on risk assets such as stocks and cryptocurrencies. However, the apex coin has been stabilizing even amid a mood of “risk aversion” on Wall Street, according to OANDA senior market analyst Edward Moya.

Only Brickbats, No Bouquets 

Dogecoin co-creator Billy Markus lamented on Twitter that he always is the subject of negative reactions no matter at which price point he warns cryptocurrency investors.
