Both events could influence inflation and liquidity expectations, impacting risk assets including Bitcoin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On-chain analyst GugaOnChain called the day a \u201csuper Wednesday,\u201d noting that Bitcoin is sensitive to energy shocks and monetary policy shifts. West Texas Intermediate crude futures for March were around <strong>$61 per barrel<\/strong>, down 0.7%, while open interest dropped by over 21,000 contracts, suggesting traders are reducing exposure ahead of key data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bitcoin showed a slight negative correlation with oil over the past week, rising just over 5% while crude remained flat. According to the analyst, energy markets serve as a barometer for inflation expectations, which in turn affect liquidity and crypto prices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the time of reporting, Bitcoin traded in a narrow range between <strong>$87,000 and $89,000<\/strong>, up 0.6% in 24 hours but down about 3.6% for the week. Year-over-year, BTC is roughly 12% lower and nearly 30% below its October all-time high above $126,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Institutional flows remain uneven, with <strong>$405 million<\/strong> exiting Bitcoin investment products in one week as expectations for near-term Fed cuts faded. Analysts note that both crypto and traditional markets are in \u201cwait-and-see\u201d mode, absorbing policy signals rather than chasing short-term gains.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bitcoin faces potential volatility on January 28, 2026, as the Federal Reserve\u2019s interest rate decision and U.S. crude oil inventory data converge.
