Cryptocurrency prices slide on Friday due to surprising U.S. August unemployment data. The economy added 187,000 jobs, surpassing the expected 170,000, but the unemployment rate rose to 3.8% instead of the predicted 3.5%. Analysts anticipate increased uncertainty regarding the Federal Reserve's future interest rate decisions.

The Bitcoin landscape has experienced a significant uptick in interest, particularly among prominent large wallet holders. Recent data from IntoTheBlock reveals that addresses with at least 0.1% of Bitcoin's total supply have added a remarkable $1.5 billion in BTC over a two-week period.
