Bitcoin reclaims $86,000 as weak US jobs data cools rate-hike fears
- —Bitcoin rose to $87,230 after the jobs report, opening Monday at $86,513
- —US employers added just 29,000 jobs in September versus 90,000 expected
- —Spot Bitcoin ETFs took in $241.08m, Ethereum funds lost about $118m
- —Strategy bought 334 BTC for $28.7m at an average price of $85,839
Why it matters: Softer macro data lowers the odds of another Fed rate hike, supporting risk assets and potentially reviving the 'Uptober' narrative.
