Crypto Market Experiences Temporary Selloff

加密貨幣市場經歷暫時拋售

On June 7th, the crypto markets experienced a sell-off following the release of stronger-than-expected U.S. employment data. Bitcoin dropped approximately 2%, while Ethereum declined over 3%.

6 月 7 日，美國公佈強於預期的就業數據後，加密貨幣市場遭遇拋售。比特幣下跌約 2%，以太幣下跌超過 3%。

The catalyst for the decline was the U.S. Employment Situation Summary, which revealed the addition of 272,000 new jobs in May. This contradicted predictions that a weaker report could prompt the Fed to ease inflation-fighting measures and boost crypto prices.

下降的催化劑是美國就業情勢摘要，該報告顯示 5 月新增就業 27.2 萬個。這與疲軟的報告可能促使聯準會放鬆抗通膨措施並推高加密貨幣價格的預測相矛盾。

"A weaker surprise could lead to rate cuts, which would likely propel Bitcoin to new all-time highs," Markus Thielen, Head of Research at 10x Research, stated before the data release.

10x Research 研究主管馬庫斯·蒂倫 (Markus Thielen) 在數據發布前表示：“意外減弱可能會導致降息，這可能會推動比特幣創下歷史新高。”

Thielen believes the jobs numbers did not directly trigger the crypto dip, but they provide a nuanced picture. "The unemployment rate rose to 4.0%, but the increase in jobs was a positive surprise, primarily driven by a surge in part-time work."

蒂倫認為，就業數據並沒有直接引發加密貨幣下跌，但它們提供了一幅微妙的圖像。 “失業率升至4.0%，但就業機會的增加令人意外，這主要是由兼職工作激增推動的。”

Altcoins were particularly affected by the downturn, with Pepe losing over 10%, Solana declining nearly 5%, and Dogecoin falling close to 8%. However, many traders remain optimistic about the long-term prospects for cryptocurrencies.

山寨幣尤其受到經濟低迷的影響，Pepe 下跌超過 10%，Solana 下跌近 5%，Dogecoin 下跌接近 8%。然而，許多交易者對加密貨幣的長期前景仍持樂觀態度。

"Strong sell-off into support. Looks like a shakeout," tweeted il Capo of Crypto, a prominent crypto analyst.

著名加密貨幣分析師 il Capo 發推文稱：“強勁拋售轉為支撐。看起來像是一次洗牌。”

While the recent volatility may be concerning, the prevailing sentiment is that it is a minor setback on crypto's path towards wider adoption and price appreciation in the coming months. The market's ability to recover from this dip will be a crucial test for the bullish case.

雖然最近的波動可能令人擔憂，但普遍的情緒是，這是加密貨幣在未來幾個月走向更廣泛採用和價格升值的道路上的一個小挫折。市場從這次下跌中恢復的能力將是對看漲情況的關鍵考驗。
