Tomorrow's jobs report matters for crypto.
Any sense of a stronger-than-expected economy → markets price in the Fed hiking or holding longer → higher short-term rates. Consensus is +115k NFP (monthly jobs), 4.3% unemployment.
Any meaningful move higher in rate expectations may be bearish for crypto in the near term.
Kraken Institutional team keeps an eye on macro markets. More to come tomorrow.
