Treasury Debt Sales Test Bitcoin's Resilience
The Treasury will host three auctions between August 11 and 13, totaling $125 billion in debt sales. These events coincide with two inflation reports that will be released just hours before the corresponding 10-year and 30-year sales.
According to CryptoSlate's analysis, a sharp decline in bond demand could push yields higher, potentially affecting Bitcoin's price. However, historical data suggests that Bitcoin may ignore these macro pressures.
A 4.5-hour gap between the CPI data release on August 12 and the $125 billion debt sales is expected to trigger Bitcoin's hardest macro pressure. The Treasury auctions will determine whether softer bond demand and rising yields coincide with a drop in Bitcoin's price.
