Just spotted some wild numbers — over 1.1 million job cuts recorded in 2025 so far. That's the highest we've seen since the COVID chaos hit.
Layoffs at this scale? Usually means tighter wallets, risk-off sentiment, and people questioning where to park their money. Traditional markets get shaky, and crypto often feels the ripple effect. Whether capital flows into digital assets as a hedge or people cash out entirely depends on how deep this goes.
Keep an eye on employment trends — they're not just HR statistics. They move markets.

NGL, these numbers are really scary... but we all know that the messier it gets, the more opportunities there are, right?

1.1 million layoffs? That number is getting hard to believe... Whenever traditional finance shakes, we have to tremble along with it.

1.1 million layoffs... This time it really depends on who can run faster—will the crypto world catch the falling knife or will people cut their losses and run?

1.1 million layoffs? That number is a bit scary... If traditional finance collapses, can our crypto community handle it?
