The unemployment rate in the US for November fell from 3.9% to 3.7%, defying expectations that it would stay the same.
This is a crucial metric for the US Federal Reserve when setting the interest rate. A higher rate of unemployment typically lessens the likelihood of an interest rate hike. This has also had an influence on the cryptocurrency market.
