Guess tomorrow's US CPI inflation print, the user with the closest guess gets 1,000 sats.
The relevant number is the unadjusted US CPI over the 12-month period ended July 2022.
Tiebreaker: If multiple users make the same overall CPI guess, the energy CPI print will be a tiebreaker.
Last month's data showed a 9.1% overall CPI print, and a 41.6% Energy CPI print.
