Bitcoin Holds Steady Near $79,835 Amid Jobs Report and Fed Rate Hike Odds
Bitcoin's price held steady near USD 79,835.40 in a relatively narrow trading band over the past 24 hours, according to CoinGecko data.
Total crypto market capitalization stayed close to USD 2.7 trillion for another session.
Zcash again outperformed the broader market, rising past USD 1,200 on continued ETF-driven demand.
The jobs report from August more than doubled forecasts, pushing traders to reprice Fed rate hike odds higher, which trimmed part of the rally that had briefly lifted Bitcoin above USD 82,000.
