Latest Situation in Bitcoin and Altcoins Before Critical Data from the USA

It is predicted that non-agricultural employment data for May, which will be announced shortly in the USA, will bring volatility in Bitcoin (BTC) and cryptocurrencies.

US non-farm employment data will be announced today at 15.30 GMT. It is thought that the data in question will have a significant impact on the direction of the cryptocurrency market in general.

According to many market experts, non-agricultural employment data is as important as inflation data for interest rate decisions. Experts estimate that the course of the labor market seriously affects the interest rate decision to be taken by the US Federal Reserve (FED).

The previous data was 175 thousand, well below expectations. For the data to be announced today, expectations are at 182 thousand.

There may be an increase in the value of the dollar if the data expressing the change in working people in May, except for the agricultural industry, moves upward. An increase in the dollar index (DXY), which moves in inverse correlation with Bitcoin, will negatively affect the cryptocurrency market.

Since the last announced data was well below expectations, it triggered a sudden rise in Bitcoin price.
