Bitcoin Holds Above $100K Support After Six-Day Decline
Bitcoin has rebounded from a support level of $114,432 after a six-day decline. However, this recovery does not indicate a strong rally is imminent.
Labor Data Impacts Federal Reserve Speculation
- US job growth was weaker than expected, with the unemployment rate rising to 4.2%.
- Average hourly wages increased by 0.3%, reflecting a cooling labor market.
- These factors may lead the Federal Reserve to pause interest rate hikes or lower them.
A potential shift in central bank policy could attract more institutional investors back into the crypto market.
ETF Inflows Indicate Mixed Market Signals
- Spot Bitcoin ETFs in the US saw inflows surpassing $50 billion in June and July, indicating growing institutional interest.
- Geopolitical tensions are driving some investors towards Bitcoin as a hedge against instability.
Despite short-term fluctuations, on-chain data shows increasing holder retention and reduced borrowing for risky trades. Analysts believe that as long as Bitcoin remains above $100,000, the overall positive trend may continue, with potential capital influx by Q4 if the Fed adopts a dovish stance.
