Crypto.news reported that 
Ethereum, 
XRP and 
Pi Network traded under pressure on Nov. 13 as US producer inflation reached 6.5% annually. The report cited the Bureau of Labor Statistics’ October data, which showed producer prices rising 0.3% during the month, and noted that Ethereum was below $2,000 while XRP was close to $1.
Live pricing showed Ethereum at $1,923.72, down 4.07% over 24 hours and 13.50% over seven days. Its market capitalization stood at $235.11 billion. XRP was priced at $1.015, a 0.82% daily decline and a 14.24% weekly fall, with a market capitalization of $64.47 billion.
Pi Network was also cited as trading under pressure in the report, although the live data showed PI at $0.070199, up 0.44% over 24 hours. PI remained down 6.26% over seven days and had a market capitalization of $799.1 million.
The broader crypto market capitalization was $2.38 trillion, with the market broadly lower. 
Bitcoin fell 4.28% over 24 hours, while the Fear and Greed Index stood at 20, categorized as Extreme Fear. The simultaneous weakness in major assets and deeply negative sentiment underscore the adverse market backdrop surrounding the inflation release, though the available coverage does not establish a direct causal link.
For context, Ethereum and XRP both remained below their respective weekly levels despite the inflation data, while Pi’s positive daily move provided a limited counterpoint. The next market checkpoints are continued pressure around Ethereum’s $2,000 level and whether XRP can remain near the $1 mark as broader sentiment evolves.
