The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics has released its January 2024 figures, revealing a steadfast unemployment rate and a significant rise in non-farm sector employment.
The unemployment rate remained constant at 3.7%, defying the slight increase that was projected.
Additionally, the non-farm employment sector witnessed an impressive growth of 353,000 jobs, significantly outpacing the forecast of 187,000.
This robust employment scenario has led to a minor downturn in Bitcoin's value, as it could signal the Federal Reserve's inclination to extend the duration of the current interest rates, given the solid labor market conditions.
