Data Analysis
Measured by Clometrix
Solana's volatility ratio was 13.90x, against 2.77x for a typical Non-Farm Payrolls release since 2021. Its volume ratio was 21.97x, against a typical 4.45x. That is more than twice what this release usually does. 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 Solana moved
Solana was at $104.37 when the figure came out. Fifteen minutes later it was 2.79% lower, and an hour later 2.84% lower. Its high-to-low range in the hour after was 3.99% of its price, against 0.58% in the hour before.
The release
Released by the Bureau of Labor Statistics on 4 September 2026 at 8:30 AM EDT. The economy added 162K jobs for August 2026, according to Non-Farm Payrolls, after a loss of 23K in July 2026.
It arrived at the same moment as Non-Farm Private Payrolls and Unemployment Rate, so the reaction measured on this page belongs to all of them together.
What made it matter
Since 2021, Non-Farm Payrolls releases in the two weeks before a Fed decision have moved Solana about as much as those at other times: a median volatility ratio of 2.72x across 21, against 2.81x across 49. This one came out 12 days before the Federal Reserve's 16 September rate decision. Its own ratio of 13.90x compares with 2.72x for those, so it moved the price more than its circumstances alone would suggest.
Its record
Across 70 Non-Farm Payrolls releases since 2021, Solana's median volatility ratio is 2.77x.
About Non-Farm Payrolls
Nonfarm payrolls is the measure of the number of workers in the U.S. excluding farm workers and workers in a handful of other job classifications. This is measured by the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), which surveys private and government entities throughout the U.S. about their payrolls. The BLS reports the nonfarm payroll numbers to the public on a monthly basis through the closely followed “Employment Situation” report.
