The underwhelming US employment report did not shake the crypto asset sector. Data shows that the total market capitalization still remains above $3 trillion, which is quite stable. What does this indicate? Looking at employment figures alone is far from enough to judge the market's short-term direction.

Market reactions reveal the clues—investors are actually quite calm and are waiting. Their real focus is on two things: upcoming inflation data and statements from the Federal Reserve. These two pieces of information are key, as they directly reflect the stance of monetary policy and the liquidity in the market. In other words, everyone is watching what the Federal Reserve will do next to decide their own strategy.

Even with weak employment data, everything has stabilized, indicating that the real story is now with the Federal Reserve. Otherwise, why do the crypto circles care most about where the money is flowing?

Poor employment data can't stop it either, which means everyone is just waiting for the Fed's next move.

Basically, it's just waiting for the Federal Reserve to give a signal; employment data is just a distraction. Holding onto 3 trillion is indeed something, the crypto market's resilience is still there.

Poor employment data can't shake the crypto market, what does this mean? It shows that everyone has already seen through it; the real show is on the Federal Reserve's side. Once inflation data is out, that's the decisive moment—waiting to see Powell's reaction and actions. Staying steady with three trillion is safe, but ultimately it's a game of liquidity. When the Fed eases, the market becomes active; when it tightens, everyone trembles. This wave of waiting is essentially a bet on the Fed's next move, with no suspense.

nah the real game here is watching who gets frontrun into oblivion when fed actually moves... 3T holding steady? sure, but that's just the surface layer. everyone's playing possum waiting for inflation data, meanwhile the actual MEV extraction happens in the dark pools nobody talks about. classic market manipulation theater while retail thinks they're reading the script lol
