Bitcoin and Ethereum Surge Ahead of US CPI Inflation Data Release
- Bitcoin nears $60,000, with altcoins like Ethereum seeing over 4% gains.
- Over $177 million liquidated in 24 hours, split between $91 million in short and $86 million in long liquidations.
- US CPI data for July expected to show a 0.2% inflation increase, sparking concerns about potential Fed rate adjustments.
