Welcome to the US Crypto News Morning Briefing—A summary of key points in the crypto industry that you need to know for today
Please grab a coffee while receiving the latest labor data from the United States, which sends mixed signals regarding jobs, wages, and unemployment rates. Currently, traders are considering how all of this will impact risk assets from stocks to Bitcoin as volatility becomes the norm
Daily crypto news: U.S. jobs shrank in October and increased slightly in November, reflecting market volatility.
The Non-Farm Payroll (NFP) report for October and November 2025 of the United States surprised the market as it is one of the most important economic data of this week. It also revealed that the labor market is continuing to slow down, which may impact both the stock and crypto markets.
According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), October saw a sharp decline in jobs by 105,000 positions, much worse than the expected -25,000, reflecting a clear slowdown in the labor market.
Analysts have indicated that this event is an exception due to delays in government data collection and seasonal adjustments.
Meanwhile, November saw an increase of 64,000 positions, slightly higher than the forecast of 50,000, but the unemployment rate rose to 4.6% from 4.4% in October, above the expected 4.5%.
Although the November figures may ease the market somewhat, they reflect the discontinuity of labor market activities in the U.S. recently.
The impact of the Fed and the market on Bitcoin and risky assets.
All this data is likely to support a more relaxed view for the U.S. Federal Reserve, as Powell has previously cited weaknesses in the labor market to justify rate cuts, and this latest figure indicates that the economy is far from overheating.
Traders may see this report as a sign that relaxation in 2026 is becoming more likely, which may support risky assets including Bitcoin if liquidity expectations remain. Bitcoin remains close to $90,000, and today's data may trigger short-term volatility.
Weak figures in October followed by a gradual recovery in November may lead to short-term buying pressure back to $95,000 as the market reacts to the Fed's easing measures.
On the other hand, unexpectedly high unemployment rates may spark concerns about a recession again, causing rapid volatility in the crypto, stock, and currency markets.
Although the market usually reacts positively when uncertainty ends, this set of data is special. The slowdown trend may spur initial crypto buying from renewed hopes about a serious interest rate cut by the Fed in 2026. However, if the numbers are too weak, this story may shift from hopes of liquidity to recession concerns, which in the past have reduced overall demand for risky assets.
Market participants remain cautious, as October data is considered an anomaly, and November data is compiled towards the end of the month, which may have statistical distortions and adjustments later.
While algorithmic trading and thin liquidity may lead to severe short-term volatility, careful strategy placement is important.
Amid various signals, traditional safe-haven assets like gold may still attract interest, as the USD faces pressure while speculative activity remains fragile in the technology sector.
