"Bitcoin price is trading at lows of $85,980, down over 1% over the past 24 hours, with a 24-hour trading volume of $87 billion. The top cryptocurrency is currently 5% below its seven-day high of $92,944 but is currently making new seven-day and seven-month lows. With a circulating supply of 19,950,600 BTC out of a maximum of 21 million, the global Bitcoin market cap is $1.78 trillion, reflecting a 1% decline over the past day."
"The U.S. labor market showed unexpected strength in September, according to data released by the Bureau of Labor Statistics after a six-week delay due to the government shutdown. Nonfarm payrolls increased by 119,000, more than double economists' forecast of 50,000, although the unemployment rate ticked up to 4.4% from 4.3%. August's reading was revised to a 4,000-job loss. This report, normally released in early October, marks the resumption of official economic data and will be followed by further updates in mid-December."
