This week will be marked by significant developments for both the global economy and crypto markets. U.S. employment data and a speech by Fed Chair Powell could bring volatility to traditional markets, while BlackRock’s Bitcoin ETF move and events like the World Computer Summit are on the radar of crypto investors.
