Crypto Markets Face Oil Shock And Key US Inflation Data In March 2026

This week, crypto markets are tracking whether an oil supply shock linked to the US-Iran war fuels broader inflation as key US data land on March 11 and March 13. Traders are watching February CPI, the second estimate of Q4 2025 GDP, and the delayed January PCE report alongside Brent and WTI prices around $119. With Bitcoin near $67,409 and total crypto market capitalization at $2.3 trillion, outcomes for inflation and growth data could shape risk appetite and liquidity expectations.
