Presto Research analyst Min Jung stated, "The initial CPI reaction was strong, but as investors took a more cautious approach, realizing that more data is needed to confirm inflation trends, the market rebounded."BTC Markets analyst Rachael Lucas attributed the market recovery to trading bots responding to the stability of macroeconomic conditions, "Algorithmic trading plays a significant role in these rapid movements, with many bots programmed to react instantly to keywords related to Powell, CPI data, and other major economic reports. Given the recent volatility driven by clearing, any stability in macro conditions could trigger positive buybacks, especially from these automated strategies."Lucas explained that the market seems to be shaking off tariff-related concerns and digesting the latest CPI data, as prices are rising without prominent bullish catalysts. "Risk assets, including cryptocurrencies, have responded positively to the stability of macroeconomic conditions, and if liquidity conditions remain supportive, the market may be preparing for the next leg up."

ChainCatcher news, according to decrypt, JPMorgan analysts wrote in a report on Tuesday that the market capitalization of publicly traded cryptocurrency companies tracked by JPMorgan (including Coinbase and Bitcoin mining companies like Marathon and Riot) grew by 14% in January, reaching $108 billion, while the cryptocurrency market itself had a market capitalization of about $3.2 trillion at the end of January, an increase of 8%.Analysts pointed out that as a crypto-friendly regulatory environment begins to take shape under Trump's administration, the market capitalization growth rate of publicly traded cryptocurrency companies is nearly double that of the overall cryptocurrency market.Additionally, the SEC's willingness to work with cryptocurrency companies may benefit Coinbase, as the SEC filed a lawsuit against Coinbase in 2023 for alleged violations of registration requirements. However, JPMorgan analyst Charles Pearce stated that the performance of publicly traded cryptocurrency companies may have been largely driven by hype surrounding artificial intelligence, "the narrative for Bitcoin mining companies partly revolves around their ability to transition to HPC data centers, and some stocks have benefited from this development, which is unrelated to the overall trend of the cryptocurrency market."
