With non-farm payroll data about to be released, how important is this employment report? To put it simply, if the data shows strong performance and the economy is doing well, the Federal Reserve has no reason to continue cutting interest rates. Conversely, if the data is weak, expectations for rate cuts will materialize.



The logical chain here is quite clear. What does a rate cut imply? Ample market liquidity. More money means stronger purchasing power, which naturally leads to more funds flowing into various assets, including the crypto market. Historically, when non-farm payroll data is released, BTC's reaction has been very sensitive—either surging sharply or experiencing sharp pullbacks, with the market often fluctuating wildly.

So, the question is: Will 2026 really be a good year? It largely depends on whether the Federal Reserve will ease its policies. If liquidity remains ample throughout the year, it will provide enough support for the entire market. But if economic data continues to be strong and the rate-cutting cycle shrinks, the market's upward momentum will naturally be limited. Therefore, whether the upcoming key data releases can deliver satisfactory results will determine the subsequent pace.

Non-farm data is just a gamble; if you bet right, you take off; if you bet wrong, you get liquidated. It's that simple.

Non-farm data, to put it simply, is like dice in a casino; no one knows the outcome before they are rolled. Lower interest rates = printing money = BTC eating. I understand this logic, but on the other hand, does the Federal Reserve really cooperate that much? Is 2026 good or not? Ultimately, it depends on whether the US economic data has any shame, haha.

How many times have we heard the rhetoric about liquidity? Every time, it's said that more money will lead to a rise... The real situation is that when the incentive mechanism is distorted, even more liquidity flows to those with the most influence. Non-farm payroll data is just an excuse; in the end, the market is still determined by the game and balance among a few major players. A "good year" in 2026? Let's first see how the checks and balances of rights work, otherwise, even more rate cuts won't save it.

Non-farm data is like a roulette wheel in a casino; a spin and the price goes crazy.

Non-farm data comes out and it's a few hours of heartbeat acceleration, really The moment I inserted the needle, I knew I was going to be harvested again Cutting interest rates is the real way; without liquidity, everything is useless Whether 2026 can take off really depends entirely on Powell The economy being too strong is actually a bad thing, this logic is brilliant When there's lots of money, it rises; when there's little, it falls, simple and brutal A single statement from the Federal Reserve makes the crypto circle tremble

Well... basically, it's betting on the Federal Reserve's mood. If they are in a good mood and cut interest rates, we'll celebrate. I didn't dare look at the market when the non-farm payrolls came out; my hands were trembling. 2026? Let's just survive this month first, haha. Ample liquidity = crypto market celebration, this logic makes sense. It feels like the Federal Reserve is now like a big player, whether the data is good or bad all depends on whether it wants to pump liquidity. With the interest rate cut cycle shrinking, BTC might have to endure a few big drops... Actually, we're not betting on the economy, but on the Federal Reserve's policy stance. On non-farm payroll day, my heart was more volatile than a candlestick chart.

Non-farm data is just a gamble, to be honest... judging the Federal Reserve's mood based on data quality. Wait, do we really have to rely on interest rate cuts to trade cryptocurrencies? Is the crypto world really this competitive? Liquidity is abundant, so prices go up—that logic makes sense. The question is, when will liquidity actually be sufficient? A good year in 2026? Haha, I bet five bucks and end up just getting my hopes up. The needle-injection fanatic BTC is waiting, and those who don't get liquidated on non-farm day are the winners.

Once the non-farm payroll data is released, BTC tends to shake... Basically, it's just about reading the Federal Reserve's mood to decide what to do.
