TL;DR: The US economy added 165,000 payroll jobs in October while unemployment stood at 4.1%, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics’ November 6 release. The data complicate hopes of quick monetary easing, but the report by itself cannot establish what the Federal Reserve will do next or where Bitcoin will trade. Bitcoin’s difficult trading week has coincided with a closely watched update on the US economy. The Bureau of Labor Statistics reported on November 6 that nonfarm payroll employment increased by 165,000 in October. The unemployment rate was little changed at 4.1%.
