Bitcoin traded near $79,500 on September 7 and was later quoted at $78,950.76 on the 8th after US employment data showed 162,000 August jobs, well above the 55,000 economist forecast. The report lifted Treasury yields and the dollar and increased expectations for a 25-basis-point Federal Reserve rate increase on September 16, with CME Group's FedWatch tool showing roughly 60% implied odds. Bitcoin had reached above $82,000 before retreating but remained above $79,000 through the weekend. US spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded $987 million in net inflows last week, extending their positive-flow streak to three weeks, while realized capitalization rose $9.36 billion to $1.068 trillion by September 6. Markets are awaiting August inflation data before the Federal Reserve decision, although the newer account schedules the CPI release for the 10th while earlier reporting lists September 12.
