The S&P 500 and Nasdaq futures fell 0.6% and 1.1%, respectively, with US stocks ending August lower.
“Bitcoin is hovering around $20,000 despite global stock market weakness. The next big move for bitcoin will likely come after the non-farm payrolls report, which may show signs of cooling and spark a near-term recovery rally,” he said Edward Moyaa senior market analyst OANDA.
Martin HiesboeckHead of blockchain and crypto research at a multi-asset digital trading platform Keepsaid: “We do not expect [Bitcoin] & Ethereum are suffering from monetary policy per se. Further tightening is needed to bring prices down.”

Michael van de Poppe noted on Twitter that Bitcoin is holding crucial levels and has seen a “rapid recovery.”
