    CryptoSlate - 19:05 Apr 11, 2026

    Bitcoin might trade around the clock, but its liquidity doesn't anymore. The asset that was supposed to become more resilient after absorbing billions in institutional capital through ETFs has instead developed a split personality, one that looks deep and orderly during New York trading hours and considerably more fragile once Wall Street's desks go dark.

    CryptoSlate - 14:00 Apr 10, 2026
    March inflation has delivered a split result with one immediate consequence. US consumer prices accelerated hard enough to keep the Federal Reserve boxed in, while the softer core reading kept the next month alive as the real test. That tension reaches well beyond macro calendars.

    CryptoSlate - 15:45 Apr 09, 2026
