THE CPI RESULTS ARE IN… 👀 |
Ladies & gents, the latest U.S. CPI (Consumer Price Index) numbers are in…and they ain't pretty. |
CPI measures the average change in prices for everyday things like housing, clothes, food, services, etc. |
Last month, it rose 0.4% - higher than expected. |
Year-over-year inflation now stands at 3.5% - also higher than expected. |
This is now the 36th consecutive month with inflation above 3% and the second straight monthly increase. **gulp** |
(Side note: If this was my school report card, I'd pull the "dog ate it" trick and just never show it to my parents) |
The CPI doesn't tell the full story though, just look at how much prices are up on these daily items over the past year: |
Car Insurance: +22% Domestic services (i.e. housework): +10.9% Beef: +7.6% Hospital Services Inflation: +7.5% Homeowner Inflation: +5.9% Milk Road Daily Newsletter: Still free
|
The recent data highlights that inflation is still a problem and interest rates probably aren't coming any time soon. |
Analysts now predict rate cuts won't happen until September. |
How'd the markets react? Many of the top 100 cryptocurrencies are dropping like bricks into the ocean (in this case, the Red Sea). |
|
Buckle up, Roaders. Things could get rocky in the near term. |

SAY HELLO TO CRYPTO'S NEW GAMING DEVICE 🎮 |
Check it out. Crypto's getting a new gaming device… |
It's called SuiPlayOX1. |
|
Here's everything you need to know: |
The device was created by Playtron and Mysten Labs (the team behind the Sui blockchain). It's a handheld gaming device with "native web3 capabilities". The device will integrate the Sui blockchain into the device's account system. (aka the login will be connected with a Sui wallet on the backend) Crypto games will be the main focus, but gamers will also be able to play regular PC titles and even games from other blockchains.
|
It's unclear when the SuiPlayOX1 will be released (the team said "sometime in 2025") but this is a cool project we'll be keeping our eyes on. |
|
GRAPH OF THE DAY: LONG-TERM BTC HOLDERS ARE SELLING 📉 |
BTC saw big monthly returns in February (+43.55%), but things have slowed down since. |
In fact, BTC currently has a negative monthly return in April and is on pace to have its first red month since August 2023. |
One of the big reasons is… long-term HODLers are taking profits. |
Check it out. |

|
Milk Road Take: There's no reason to panic. This is a normal "changing of the guard" that happens every few years when OG investors exit and newer investors enter. |
Just keep calm and HODL on. |

BITE-SIZED COOKIES FOR THE ROAD 🍪 |
Honeyland just announced a Play to Earn Airdrop. The popular mobile game with over 21,000 daily players is airdropping "multi-millions" of $HXD to players in June.* |
