The release
Released by the Department of Labor on 11 December 2025 at 8:30 AM EST. Continued Jobless Claims rose to 1897K for the week ending 29th Nov, from 1838K in the week ending 22nd Nov.
It arrived at the same moment as International Trade Balance in Goods and Services, International Imports in Goods and Services, International Exports in Goods and Services and Initial Jobless Claims, so the reaction measured on this page belongs to all of them together.
Measured by Clometrix
Filecoin's volatility ratio was 0.00x, against 1.27x for a typical Continued Claims release since 2021. Its volume ratio was 0.61x, against a typical 1.43x. Under 1.5x is not a reaction at all: the market barely noticed this release. Both compare the quarter hour of the release with an ordinary quarter hour that same day, where 1.00x is no change: volatility is how far the price ranged, volume how much traded.
How Filecoin moved
Filecoin was at $1.380 when the figure came out. Fifteen minutes later it was unchanged, and an hour later unchanged. Its high-to-low range in the hour after was 0% of its price, against 2.17% in the hour before.
What made it matter
Since 2021, Continued Claims releases in the two weeks before a Fed decision have moved Filecoin about as much as those at other times: a median volatility ratio of 1.35x across 92, against 1.26x across 204. This one came out the day after the Federal Reserve's 10 December rate decision. Its own ratio of 0.00x compares with 1.26x for those, so it moved the price less than its circumstances would suggest.
How it compares
Across 296 Continued Claims releases since 2021, Filecoin's usual price swing is 1.27x. This one was 0.00 times the usual.
Thin line: Continued Claims's usual, 1.27x. Thick line: this release, 0.00x. Under 1.5x counts as no reaction at all.

What is Continued Jobless Claims?
The weekly claims report is released Thursdays at 8:30 a.m. ET by the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL). Continued claims, also referred to as insured unemployment, is the number of people who have already filed an initial claim and who have experienced a week of unemployment and then filed a continued claim to claim benefits for that week of unemployment. Continued claims data are based on the week of unemployment, not the week when the initial claim was filed.Questions about this page
Is 0.00x a lot?
No. Under 1.5x the market barely noticed the release.
Will the next Continued Claims do the same?
Nobody can say. A forecast shows the range Filecoin moved in after past Continued Claims releases, so you can plan for the likely size of the move.
Do weekly jobless claims move crypto?
Weekly jobless claims have a median Bitcoin price swing of 1.52x since 2021, which places Initial Claims and Continued Claims in Tier 3. They are released at 8:30 a.m. ET. When a claims release falls on the same minute as a bigger report, such as CPI, the reaction belongs to both. Clometrix measures 296 claims releases in the record since 2021.
