🤖Article summary:

This Friday, non-farm payroll data will be published in the U.S., with an estimate of 163,000 new jobs and an expected drop in unemployment to 4.2%. Jerome Powell warns that future decisions on rates will depend on these results. The crypto market could react with high volatility: weak data could boost assets like $BTC and $ETH , while strong data would strengthen the dollar and curb the crypto rally.


According to the specialized media BlockBeats, this Friday the non-farm payroll (NFP) data for the month of August will be published in the United States, a figure that usually has a significant impact on traditional financial markets... and increasingly in the crypto world.

Economists surveyed by Bloomberg project that the number of new jobs created could range between 100,000 and 208,000, with a median estimate of 163,000 new jobs. Additionally, a slight decrease in the unemployment rate is expected, dropping from 4.3% to 4.2%.


📉 Why does this matter so much?


In scenarios where economic growth remains a market priority, this data can significantly alter investor sentiment, as it reflects the health of the world's most powerful economy.

An NFP below expectations is usually interpreted as a sign of economic weakness, which can lead investors to seek alternative assets like Bitcoin, Ethereum, or stablecoins.

In contrast, a strong data point or one above the forecast can strengthen the dollar and put downward pressure on risk assets like cryptocurrencies.

🗣️ What did the Fed say?

Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell recently spoke at the annual central banking symposium in Jackson Hole (Wyoming) and made it clear that future monetary policy is focused on achieving stability without compromising growth.


However, Powell was emphatic about one key point:

“The timing and pace of potential interest rate cuts will depend on upcoming data, the evolution of economic outlooks, and the overall risk balance.”

🚨 And what does this mean for the crypto market?

  • High volatility assured: if the data surprises, we could see sharp movements in BTC and altcoins.

  • Traders are already positioning defensive strategies in stablecoins.

  • Opportunity for those who know how to read the market on days of high uncertainty.
