U.S. Added 139K Jobs in May, Roughly In Line With Forecasts

Another month, another jobs report that lands squarely in the 'meh' zone. The U.S. economy added 139,000 jobs in May—just close enough to forecasts to let analysts pretend their models work.

Wall Street breathes a sigh of relief (before overreacting to next month's data).

Meanwhile, crypto markets barely blinked—because when you're used to 20% daily swings, mainstream economic indicators feel like watching paint dry. Traders know the real volatility (and opportunity) lives on-chain.

Fun fact: That 139K figure? Roughly how many new 'Web3 growth hackers' LinkedIn spawned last quarter. The invisible hand giveth... and mostly taketh away.
