South Africa reported its November year-on-year consumer price index (CPI) at 3.5%, surprising to the upside compared to market forecasts of 3.6% and slightly retreating from the 3.6% registered in October.

This lower-than-expected reading suggests a moderation in the country's inflationary pressures. For the crypto markets, inflation data is crucial: lower rates can influence central banks' monetary policy decisions, affecting the appetite for alternative assets.

Crypto investors closely monitor these macroeconomic indicators, as they shape the direction of global interest rates and market liquidity.

South Africa's inflation has decreased again. Could this be the moment to truly save the crypto market? It still seems to depend on how the Federal Reserve acts.

South Africa's inflation data is out, at 3.5%, below expectations. The central bank can breathe a sigh of relief now, right?
