Economic Calendar: Macro Events That Move Crypto

Bitcoin no longer trades in isolation from traditional macro markets - major US data releases (CPI inflation prints, FOMC interest rate decisions, jobs reports) routinely move crypto as much as, or more than, crypto-specific news, because they shift the risk appetite and liquidity backdrop for all risk assets at once. Why it matters for positioning, not just prediction: markets often go quiet and range-bound in the days before a major print as traders wait rather than commit, then move sharply afterward. Reading other signals (funding, OI, flow) without knowing a major macro event sits a few days out can lead to misreading a pre-event lull as a settled trend. BTCWEAPON.COM surfaces upcoming macro events with a day-count, so a flat or indecisive reading on other cards can be understood in context - as "waiting for the print" rather than a genuine change in trend.
