In the dynamic world of cryptocurrency, the anticipation of market movements is often linked to key economic indicators. **Jag Kooner**, the President of Bitfinex Derivatives, has highlighted the potential influence of the upcoming U.S. non-farm payroll data on Bitcoin’s valuation.
As the digital currency market reels from Bitcoin’s recent dip to $56,700, a rebound has sparked hope among investors, with the price climbing back over $58,000. Amidst this volatility, Kooner suggests that the non-agricultural employment figures, set to be released tomorrow, could be a decisive factor for Bitcoin’s trajectory.
Kooner outlines two possible outcomes based on the data:
1. A weaker job market could signal a shift towards more accommodating monetary policies, potentially driving investors towards Bitcoin and elevating its price.
2. Conversely, robust employment growth might strengthen the labor market, diminishing the likelihood of interest rate cuts and exerting downward pressure on Bitcoin.
Furthermore, Kooner interprets the Federal Reserve’s latest minutes as an indication of a cautious stance on interest rate adjustments, which could contribute to Bitcoin’s price stabilization or a minor decline at most.
“The Fed’s hesitancy to lower interest rates, despite a downward inflation trend, reflects a cautious optimism but not enough to warrant immediate rate cuts,” Kooner explains.
