Bitcoin slides on stronger-than-expected US jobs data
The US economy added 162,000 jobs in August, exceeding forecasts and causing Bitcoin to fall below $80,000. The stronger labor market reduced expectations of an interest-rate cut at the Federal Reserve's September meeting, a key driver of crypto prices.
Why it matters for the crypto market
Employment data directly influences Federal Reserve policy expectations, which move Bitcoin and crypto markets as traders reprrice the odds of monetary easing or tightening.
