Crypto Daily Market Report – September 14, 2026

Crypto markets remained weak in early Monday trading, failing to extend Friday’s post-CPI rebound. U.S. August CPI was broadly in line with expectations, but core CPI rose 0.3% MoM, slightly above consensus, pushing market pricing for a 25bp Fed hike this week to around 85%. U.S. equities still rebounded on Friday, with the Dow up 0.98%, the S&P 500 up 0.86%, and the Nasdaq up 0.96%. Crypto-related stocks including Strategy and Coinbase also recovered, while BTC rebounded from around 76K toward 80K and ETH briefly broke above 2.6K. Gold also rose about 1% on Friday, although it still ended the week down roughly 1.5%. External macro risks intensified again over the weekend, pushing markets back into risk-off mode. Saudi Arabia’s East-West oil pipeline was shut after an attack, while another vessel was hit in the Strait of Hormuz. Brent crude climbed back toward $107.5 in early Asian trading, Asian equities broadly declined, BTC fell back below 77K, ETH retreated toward 2.5K, and previously high-volatility Meme assets broadly corrected. For BTC, near-term support remains around 76K, with 75K still the more important downside level. On the upside, 78K–79K has returned as the first resistance zone, while 80K–82K remains the key area for confirming a meaningful recovery. This week’s FOMC meeting will determine whether the current weakness extends further or returns to a range-bound recovery.
