Miners, Robinhood Earnings and Interest-Rate Decisions: Crypto Week Ahead

After a disappointing Octoberthe crypto market has to watch the signs that November will prove more uplifting for bitcoin BTC$107,635.19 and other major cryptocurrencies.

The impetus may be provided by interest rate decisions by the Bank of England, the Central Bank of Brazil and the Bank of Mexico. What is missing from the lineup is the US non-farm payrolls report, which is due on the first Friday of the month, but is unlikely to be released this week due to the US government shutdown. Instead, investors should look to ADP employment data and ISM PMI for a check on the world’s largest economy.

Also coming, earnings reports from a number of bitcoin mining companies and trading platform Robinhood Markets (HOOD).
