Bitcoin holds $76,000 as Nasdaq futures rebound 1.5% before jobs data

Nasdaq 100 futures were up 1.5% on Friday morning after the index fell 5.5% on Thursday, while Bitcoin was holding around $76,000. The move came before the release of U.S. jobs data, making the employment report the next scheduled macro event for both risk assets and rate expectations.

Overnight trading reinforced the cross-asset volatility: Japan's Nikkei and South Korea's Kospi each slumped 6%. The sequence puts the cryptocurrency market in a session dominated by equity-market swings rather than a company-specific development.

The immediate links run through the Nasdaq 100, Bitcoin and the jobs release. A sharp Nasdaq futures rebound followed the previous day's rout, while Bitcoin remained near the level cited in the update; the employment figures will provide the next data point for markets assessing the economic backdrop.

The report describes a live market snapshot, so the quoted futures move and Bitcoin level can change before the jobs figures are published. The overnight losses in Japan and South Korea also show that the rebound in U.S. futures had not erased the broader regional selloff.

The next point to watch is the U.S. jobs-data release on Nov. 6. The Nasdaq 100's response, Bitcoin's ability to hold around $76,000, and the reaction across global equities will determine whether the bounce extends beyond the futures session.
