The crypto market lost $60 billion in market capitalization during the two hours following revised employment data, revealing a significantly weaker US labor market than previously reported.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) announced at 10 AM ET on Sept. 9 that preliminary benchmark revisions showed total nonfarm employment was overstated by 911,000 jobs, representing a 0.6% downward revision from March 2024 to March 2025.

Bitcoin dropped 1.8% from $112,788.75 to $110,793.69 between 10 A.M. and 11 P.M. ET. Ethereum declined 1.6% from $4,346.56 to $4,277.17 during the same period.

Major altcoins posted steeper losses, with Dogecoin falling 4.1% from $0.2469 to $0.2367 and Solana dropping 3% from $218.04 to $211.69.

Other notable declines included Cardano’s 3.5% fall from $0.8839 to $0.8525, XRP’s 2.5% drop from $3.01 to $2.93, and BNB’s 1% decrease from $879.89 to $871.38.

Despite partial recoveries from daily lows, all assets remained below their pre-announcement prices.

Significant revision

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent characterized the revision as confirmation that economic conditions were worse than reported, stating the data brought total job overstatements to 1.5 million when combined with previous downward revisions of 577,000.

Bessent argued that the Fed maintained a restrictive monetary policy based on inflated employment figures. The market reaction reflected investor concerns that the Federal Reserve operated with incomplete data when setting interest rate policy throughout 2024.

The substantial employment overcount suggested the economy required more accommodative monetary conditions earlier than policymakers recognized.

The annual benchmark revision process compares Current Employment Statistics estimates against comprehensive employment counts from the Quarterly Census of Employment and Wages, which derives data from state unemployment insurance tax records filed by nearly all employers.

The 0.6% revision magnitude exceeds the 10-year absolute average of 0.2%, highlighting the scale of the employment overcount. The BLS attributed the discrepancy to businesses reporting lower employment to unemployment insurance records than to monthly employment surveys.

The correction indicated traders view the current landscape as uncertain, although the revised numbers raise the odds of a rate cut in September.

BNB is under $860 for traders via US employment data https://earlybirdsinvest.com/bnb-is-under-860-for-traders-via-us-employment-data/ https://earlybirdsinvest.com/bnb-is-under-860-for-traders-via-us-employment-data/#respond Mon, 01 Sep 2025 18:09:57 +0000 https://earlybirdsinvest.com/bnb-is-under-860-for-traders-via-us-employment-data/

BNB prices continued to fall from the all-time high of $900 seen later last month, resulting in sharp internal shaking over the past 24 hours.

In a 24-hour window, assets were traded between $849.88 and $868.76. This is a 2% movement that began with bullish momentum but ended with signs of fatigue, approaching resistance.

The volatility follows a filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission by Rex Stocks later last month, along with the rise of BNB-focused financing companies. The latest B-Strategy aims to retain up to $1 billion worth of BNB, supported by an investment company led by Binance co-founders Changpeng Zhao and Yi He.

Although BNB was unable to retain its previous profits, underlying network activity has skyrocketed. According to Defillama data, the BNB chain’s daily active wallet address has more than doubled, rising to nearly 2.5 million.

However, data from the same source shows that since late June, the volume of transactions has steadily declined. BNB prices have also moved ahead with key US economic data this week, including manufacturing and services surveys and August payroll figures.

Employment data could affect the probability that the Federal Reserve will cut interest rates this month. Currently, CME’s FedWatch tool weighs nearly 90% of a 25 bps cut, while polymer kettle traders have an odds of 82%.

Technical Analysis Overview

BNB took part in the session with a surge from $860.30 to $868.08, but the rally quickly lost steam. According to Coindesk Research’s technical analysis model, sales pressure has now been generated at the level of $867-868, a zone established as a ceiling on critical resistance.

The volume spiked during this attempt, far above the average of 54,000 at 72,000 tokens, indicating a high level of participation during failed breakouts.

After rejection, BNB was retarded towards the $850-$855 range and the purchase rights came out. This was most noticeable as the token dipped into $851.40 and triggered a volume spike. This response pointed to strong demand at these lower levels.
