Despite adding 272,000 jobs, the US unemployment rate rose to 4%, hinting at potential "growth-stagflation." Zerohedge reported that Bitcoin hedge funds hit record net shorts, signaling bearish sentiment and possible market volatility. Crypto traders view this downturn as a brief shakeout, anticipating a bullish rebound if key support levels hold. Bitcoin's price, currently at around $69,500, faces critical support at $68,500, with analysts predicting a potential 30% decline if the support level fails.Ethereum Foundation's Major ETH Deposit Spurs FearsA wallet associated with the Ethereum Foundation deposited 15,254 ETH ($56.1 million) into Kraken, triggering concerns of a further price drop as ETH fell below $3,700.

Amid the price volatility, Ethereum's Pectra upgrade, set for Q1 2025, will introduce EIP-7702 for smart contracts, PeerDAS for scalability, and increase staking limits from 32 ETH to 2,048 ETH. This upgrade is expected to be a major milestone in Ethereum's development.Bitcoin Network Congestion Skyrockets Transaction FeesBitcoin's 24-hour average transaction fees hit an all-time high of $195 on June 8, 2024, despite a 3-month price range and low exchange and on-chain volumes.
