Fed shifts toward September rate hike; key factor for bitcoin this week
Bitcoin posted its first weekly close above $80,000 since May, but analysts say it is too early to treat the level as firm support. The market is focused on U.S. August CPI and PPI data and the Federal Reserve meeting on Sept. 16, as stronger jobs data has shifted rate expectations more hawkishly. Japan’s yen moves and possible bond sales are also seen as factors. Derivatives-led positioning and thin spot demand may limit gains.

CoinShares says Fed blocks bitcoin at $80,000, fund flows driven by rate outlook
CoinShares says U.S. Federal Reserve monetary policy has re-emerged as a key factor limiting bitcoin from breaking above $80,000, even as crypto investment demand continues. Research chief James Butterfill said bitcoin is trading like gold again, but the Fed sets the ceiling as liquidity and rate expectations drive flows. After Jackson Hole comments lifted September hike expectations, about $100 million left digital asset products before inflows recovered to $1 billion by Sept. 4 amid talk of a possible hold.

Bitcoin gives back $80,000 in a day on surprise strength in U.S. August jobs data
Bitcoin fell back below $80,000 a day after reclaiming the level, with broader crypto prices also lower. The move followed U.S. August jobs data released on Sept. 4 local time showing nonfarm payrolls rose 162,000, well above a Reuters consensus of 56,000, while unemployment held at 4.1 percent. Rate-hike odds for the Sept. 15-16 FOMC meeting rose and the dollar strengthened as yields climbed.
