prediction of the week
Bitcoin rests at $28K as US jobs data prompts fresh Fed rate hike bets
Bitcoin price is still hovering around $28,000 at the end of the week, as the BTC/USD pair avoided volatility in the previous days. The highly anticipated US Nonfarm Payroll numbers came in slightly below expectations on April 7, indicating that unemployment is rising more slowly than anticipated.
The data also raised market expectations that the Federal Reserve would persist in raising interest rates to combat inflation, at the expense of the performance of risky and crypto assets.
Michaël van de Poppe, founder and CEO of the trading company Eight, summed up his expectations. “Bitcoin remains in a dull state of mind. Consolidating for weeks, while the old altcoins are surging,” he noted. “I am still seeking support here, through which $27,600 is needed to sustain itself. If that is lost, it seems likely between $25,000 and $25,400. Hold here via NFP -> $30,000 below.”
