1306 ET - President Trump's pre-recorded speech Thursday to the Blockworks Digital Assets Summit left cryptocurrency markets mostly listless. "Instead of delivering concrete proposals, Trump focused his address on political attacks, creating additional uncertainty and triggering a wave of liquidations in long positions," says Quasar Elizundia of Pepperstone in a note. Bitcoin is up 0.3% in the past 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap, while ETH rises 0.5%, XRP falls 0.2%, and SOL drops 0.6%. (kirk.maltais@wsj.com) 1239 ET - Mexico's inflation is expected to have eased in the first half of March with the consumer price index seen rising 0.16%, according to a Wall Street Journal survey of analysts. The increase for the two-week period would lower the 12-month inflation rate to 3.70% from 3.81% in the second half of February. Core CPI is forecast to have risen 0.26% for an annual rate of 3.59%, compared with 3.66% in the second half of February. An agreement between the government and fuel retailers to cap gasoline prices, and the shift in the Easter holiday to April this year from March 2024 likely took pressure off energy and services inflation, analysts at Citi say in a note. Statistics institute Inegi is scheduled to report early March inflation on Monday. (anthony.harrup@wsj.com) 1159 ET - Aviation consultant Anita Mendiratta says Heathrow's closure is likely to "have a massive implication on cargo movements." Mendiratta says the airport handles about 4,000 tons of cargo per day and is a major hub for shipments of products including pharmaceuticals, electronics and food. Mendiratta says the timing of the power outage — overnight in the UK, when there is less air traffic — likely allowed many companies to reroute shipments in the air and avoid some backups. Her expectation is that it will take two to four days for bottlenecks caused by the closure to subside. (liz.young@wsj.com) 1053 ET - The Norwegian krone looks set to weaken over the coming year as the market is underestimating the prospect of Norges Bank interest rate cuts, Danske Bank's Kristoffer Kjaer Lomholt says in a note. Realised wage growth for 2024 exceeded expectations and the February inflation print was higher than forecast. This put markets in doubt over whether the Norges Bank will cut rates at all this year, he says. "We think markets underestimate the potential for both a March 27 cut and additional easing later in the year." While higher unit labor costs initially are inflationary, they eventually become recessionary and negative for the currency. Danske expects the euro to rise to 12.10 krone in 12 months, from 11.3995 currently. (renae.dyer@wsj.com) 1053 ET - Canadian retail sales declined more than expected in January and the preliminary February figure suggests spending fell again. Still, even with this correction the level of sales remained above the November level and shows the federal tax holiday continued to boost sales, Alberta Central's Charles St-Arnaud says. Still, he notes than the pullback in sales combined with a sharp decline in consumer confidence in recent months suggests that household spending is slowing significantly and will likely become a drag on growth in Canada amid the extreme uncertainty created by the U.S. tariff threats. (robb.stewart@wsj.com; @RobbMStewart) 1024 ET - Canadian retail sales in 1Q suggest a normalization in activity, after consumer spending showed clear signs of improving in response to lower interest rates in 2H 2024, says CIBC Capital Markets' Katherine Judge. The economist says tariff uncertainty may inject caution into consumption ahead on concerns around employment prospects, depending on what the tariff outcome in Washington is on April 2. "Consumption is therefore likely to slow over the first half of the year, but accelerate in 2H and 2026 if a worst-case tariff scenario is avoided," Judge says. (robb.stewart@wsj.com; @RobbMStewart) 1022 ET - A softer-than-expected January for retail sales in Canada masks some divergence among provinces and sectors, BMO Economics' Shelly Kaushik says. She notes the weakness was driven by autos, groceries and liquor, and sporting goods. Sales ex-autos edged up 0.2% on-month. Kaushik also says sales were higher in seven of the 10 provinces. The federal tax holiday will continue to add some noise to the data through March, she says, just in time for tariff uncertainty to hit consumer sentiment even if the removal of the consumer carbon tax does add a buffer starting in April. (robb.stewart@wsj.com; @RobbMStewart) 1010 ET - The fall in Canadian retail sales in January was largely due to a drop in motor vehicle trade, and sales volumes were still up over November levels before the federal government's tax break kicked in, Oxford Economics' Tony Stillo and Michael Davenport say. The flash estimate for February suggests nominal sales fell 0.4% on month as the tax holiday ended mid-February. The economists reckon volumes also slipped further in March amid concerns about job and income security with the escalation in U.S.-Canada trade tension. (robb.stewart@wsj.com; @RobbMStewart) 0957 ET - The Czech koruna could rise as the Czech National Bank nears the end of its interest-rate cutting cycle, ING analysts say in a note. The market sees a minimal chance of another rate cut at the March 26 meeting after recent comments from CNB members, they say. The market is confident of a cut in May but this could be the last as the Czech economic rebound gains traction. A possible Ukraine ceasefire is also positive for the koruna along with Germany's fiscal spending package, although U.S. reciprocal tariffs on April 2 pose downside risks. The euro has a good chance of falling below 25.00 koruna in the coming weeks, they say. The exchange rate falls 0.1% to 24.9846. (renae.dyer@wsj.com) 0944 ET - The U.K. Treasury chief Rachel Reeves is likely to lower government spending by at least 10 billion pounds ($13.0 billion) at Wednesday's spring budget statement, Investec Economics economists Philip Shaw and Sandra Horsfield say in a note. This move is expected to consolidate U.K. public finances and ease market concerns about fiscal sustainability. Uncertainty around tariffs and their impact on the U.K. economy will also be in focus, the economists say. The government may have to take more drastic measures at the autumn budget in October if the U.K.'s economy deteriorates due to the effects of tariffs, they say. (miriam.mukuru@wsj.com) 0934 ET - The recent dollar weakening "isn't necessarily that concerning," First Eagle's Idanna Appio says. She is watching FX market for any signs that the dollar may be losing its save haven status and doesn't strengthen when investors seek protection. It isn't her base case scenario, but "it would make our life more challenging because we are running very large fiscal deficits," she says. The WSJ Dollar Index rises 0.1% and is bound to end the week pretty much where it started. The greenback strengthens 0.2% versus the euro and weakens slightly against the yen, amid risk-off sentiment in Wall Street. (paulo.trevisani@wsj.com; @ptrevisani) 0933 ET - The dollar has room to recover further as its recent selloff looks overdone, Ebury strategist Matthew Ryan says in a note. U.S. economic data have been disappointing but not disastrous, he says. Thursday's data on initial jobless claims, existing home sales and manufacturing sentiment all exceeded expectations. "At the same time, inflation remains stubbornly high, and upside risks to consumer prices from President Trump's tariffs (while likely temporary) should not be overlooked." The next major milestone will be reciprocal tariffs on April 2. The dollar should remain well supported ahead of this event, he says. The DXY dollar index rises 0.1% to 103.978 after earlier reaching a two-week high of 104.147.(renae.dyer@wsj.com) Americas Crypto Dow Jones Newswires $BTC

Since its creation in 2009 by the mysterious Satoshi Nakamoto, Bitcoin ($BTC ) has revolutionized the financial world. As the first decentralized digital currency, it laid the groundwork for a market now filled with thousands of cryptocurrencies. Despite this competition, Bitcoin has consistently maintained its position as the market leader, often referred to as the "king of cryptocurrencies." But what makes BTC so special, and why does it continue to dominate? Why Bitcoin? The Power of Decentralization At its core, Bitcoin offers something traditional fiat currencies cannot — decentralization. Unlike government-issued money, Bitcoin is not controlled by any central authority, government, or organization. Instead, it operates on a peer-to-peer network using blockchain technology. This decentralized nature makes Bitcoin resistant to censorship, government interference, and inflation, appealing to those seeking financial sovereignty. Digital Gold: The Store of Value Bitcoin is often called "digital gold" because of its limited supply of 21 million coins. This scarcity makes it a valuable asset in the eyes of investors. While traditional fiat currencies can be printed indefinitely, decreasing their value over time, Bitcoin's capped supply helps protect against inflation. Many investors see BTC as a hedge against economic instability and a store of value in an increasingly uncertain global market. Mainstream Adoption and Institutional Interest In recent years, Bitcoin has gained significant attention from institutional investors and mainstream companies. Financial giants like BlackRock, Fidelity, and PayPal have begun to integrate Bitcoin into their services, legitimizing its status as a legitimate asset. Countries like El Salvador have even adopted Bitcoin as legal tender, further reinforcing its global significance. Challenges and Future Outlook Despite its popularity, Bitcoin faces challenges. Regulatory scrutiny, environmental concerns due to its energy-intensive mining process, and market volatility continue to be debated topics. However, the resilience of Bitcoin over the past decade suggests its ability to adapt and grow. With continued adoption and technological advancements like the Lightning Network, Bitcoin's potential is far from exhausted. Conclusion: BTC's Role in the Future of Finance Bitcoin has proven to be more than just a speculative asset — it is a movement toward decentralized finance, a response to the flaws in traditional financial systems. Whether you're an investor, a tech enthusiast, or a skeptic, it's hard to ignore the impact Bitcoin has had on the world. As we move further into a digital future, Bitcoin's influence will likely continue to grow, solidifying its place as a cornerstone of the global financial system.
