#Bitcoin O bitcoin is trading higher this Friday, 6, recovering from the lows of the previous day, when it was traded close to US$ 100 thousand. The relief movement came after employment data in the United States showed job creation above expectations in May, which helped to ease some concerns about the North American economy.

Around 4:16 PM (Brasília time), the main cryptocurrency in the market was up 2.10%, quoted at US$ 104.478. Meanwhile, Ethereum was down 3.50%, at US$ 2.492.10, according to data from Binance.

The payroll report indicated the creation of 139,000 jobs in May, surpassing projections. After the announcement, US President Donald Trump once again criticized Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell.

According to analysts, the data reinforces the appetite for risk assets, as it reduces fears of a "stagflation" scenario - a combination of a weak economy with high inflation. "For bitcoin, the employment data reinforces the macro environment that has supported digital assets so far," said David Hernandez of the crypto manager 21Shares in a statement.

In the assessment of Christopher Lewis from FXEmpire, if bitcoin breaks the level of US$ 112,000, the market may target US$ 120,000. On the other hand, if it loses support at US$ 100,000, the correction could deepen to US$ 95,000. "This is a market that should still present a lot of volatility, but it had risen too much in a short period - therefore, the correction makes a lot of sense," he noted.
