米国の4月の消費者物価指数（CPI）が予想を上回ったことを受け、株式市場が下落し、ビットコインも一時重要な節目である8万ドルを割り込んだ。その後、わずかに値を戻したものの、この統計は米連邦準備制度理事会（FRB）が現在の金利水準を維持するとの見方を強める結果となった。
5月12日に発表された4月の消費者物価指数は前月比0.6％の上昇となり、予想の0.3％の2倍に達した。前年同月比では3.8％の上昇となり、予想の3.7％を上回った。食品とエネルギーを除いたコア指数は0.4％の上昇で、予想の0.2％を上回っている。
X上では、米国の4月のCPIが3.8％と予想を上回ったことを受け、ビットコインが一時8万ドルを下回ったことに対する反応が相次いだ。市場の耐性、FRBの利下げ時期の遅延の可能性、そして株価下落局面におけるビットコインのインフレヘッジ資産としての役割について、様々な意見が交わされている。

Bitcoin held $80,000. Ethereum dropped below $2,300. Altcoins turned red.
This is what inflation does to every market.
Stocks down. Crypto down. Your purchasing power down.

Bitcoin climbed above $82,000 on May 6, driven by reports of easing tensions between the United States and Iran. Oil prices fell sharply as President Donald Trump paused a military operation in the Strait of Hormuz. The move triggered more than $200 million in short liquidations.
Bitcoin experienced volatility on February 18, 2026, trading in a tight range before dropping to around $66,000 in the U.S. afternoon following hawkish Federal Reserve minutes. Crypto-related stocks initially rebounded but later reversed gains, while liquidations neared $200 million. Geopolitical tensions and macroeconomic uncertainty contributed to the market's choppy performance.
AIによるレポート
Bitcoin's price has fallen below $68,000 as escalating US-Iran conflicts drive volatility in cryptocurrency markets. The drop follows a US-Israel attack on Iran and recent statements from leaders on both sides, compounded by weak US jobs data. Other major coins like Ethereum and XRP have also declined.
Bloomberg Intelligence strategist Mike McGlone has cautioned that bitcoin's recent slide may indicate broader financial stress and a potential U.S. recession. He predicts the cryptocurrency could drop to $10,000 as the post-2008 'buy the dip' era ends amid high stock valuations and low volatility. Market analyst Jason Fernandes views such a steep decline as a low-probability event requiring a severe credit shock.
