The job market in 2025 is facing its toughest stretch since 2020, when the pandemic brought the U.S. economy to a standstill. Hiring has contracted significantly, reflecting broader economic pressures and uncertainty. This employment slowdown mirrors the post-pandemic recovery pattern and could have ripple effects across various sectors, including the digital asset space where market sentiment is often tied to macroeconomic conditions.

The market is so bad, why not buy the dip? Are you waiting to lose your job before crying?

Hmm, 2025 is starting already, is the job market going to underperform again? Really, whenever the economy is unstable, HR budgets are the first to be cut. Poor workers. By the way, will this wave affect the crypto circle again? When macro is bad, it’s always the first to be hit. I’ve said it before, macro isn’t good, everything is pointless. --- Still hoping for a rebound? Haha. --- So, it’s still about making more money. The company can’t be relied on. --- Listening to this, it’s just a vicious cycle: poor economy → layoffs → decreased consumption → worse economy. --- Starting 2025 like this, it feels like it’s going to be tough. --- Looks like I need to hold onto BTC tightly. When macro plays come into action, this is the time.

It's already 2025, and you're still laying off staff? The crypto world is going to follow Naouzi again.

Damn, another déjà vu of 2020. The crypto world is about to take a break.

Damn, is Bitcoin about to be dragged down again by macroeconomics? I already said that when macro data is bad, you need to prepare in advance, but I was still holding on stubbornly...

The job market is starting to falter again, and the crypto world will suffer along with it.

Oh no, this is the end. The crypto world is about to decline as well.

Brothers, this time it's really uncertain, even harder than 2020 --- No wonder the crypto world is so cold, it turns out the macro environment has completely collapsed --- The job market 💀, it's already good if crypto can survive --- Wait, do you think this could be a bottom signal? Will history repeat itself... --- The project teams that have survived until now are truly remarkable, even with recruitment halted, they persist --- When the macro collapses, you really see who has truly HODL'ed and who is just cutting losses

The bull market hasn't arrived, and the job security is gone first—that's the reality of 2025.

Is it another round of recession? Feels like a replay of 2020.
