The U.S. labor market showed modest expansion in November, with nonfarm payrolls climbing 64,000 jobs while the unemployment rate held steady. This incremental growth reflects the ongoing but slowing momentum in employment, a key metric that shapes expectations around central bank decisions. For crypto market participants, such employment data carries weight—softer labor market signals often influence Federal Reserve rate decisions, which in turn affects liquidity conditions and asset valuations across digital asset markets. Traders have been closely monitoring these economic indicators as they gauge potential policy shifts that could either support or constrain market conditions heading into the final quarter of the year.

With employment data so weak, expectations of interest rate cuts before the end of the year will be hyped up again, and the crypto circle will have to ride the roller coaster along with U.S. dollar policies.

Employment data is getting softer and softer. Now the Federal Reserve has to think again. Is the crypto market about to take off?
