Will the Yen Carry Trade Unwind destroy Bitcoin?
Many traders are worried about $btc.
The big issue right now is that a Japanese rate hike could cause traders to move out of risky assets like btc and eth
It's called the Yen Carry Trade Unwind because traders have traditionally used cheap yen lending to buy btc and other assets. 🇯🇵
If the rates go up, traders may be forced to sell their riskier assets
We don't how big an effect this will have or if it is already baked into the price. Don't believe anyone saying that they know the answer. It is too complex for simple answers.
We can probably expect more volatility but no one knows what happens next. This is uncharted territory. 🚣DCA remains the safest approach if you want to invest in bitcoin. Don't forget that there se always rumours that something is going to kill bitcoin but so far nothing has managed to stop its rise
Check my post on the Triffin Dilemma for a more bullish outcome
Nobody really knows what happens next

⚠️ Bitcoin Faces a New Macro Risk ⚠️
Japan’s rising interest rates are putting pressure on the yen carry trade — a strategy long used to fund risky assets like Bitcoin using cheap yen loans.
📌 What’s happening?
• Bank of Japan hints at tighter policy
• Yen strengthens
• Investors start unwinding leveraged positions
📉 Why it matters for $BTC
As yen-funded trades unwind, liquidity can leave risk assets — including Bitcoin — triggering volatility or short-term downside.
🧠 Smart money move:
This isn’t FUD — it’s macro. Watch key support levels, manage leverage, and don’t ignore global central bank signals.
Bitcoin doesn’t move alone… macro decides the tempo ⏳

🚨 RED ALARM: $BTC has just dropped -5% in minutes and is at $86K 😱
But open your eyes, this is NOT because of crypto… this is the end of an era:
The Bank of Japan has just said:
“76% probability of raising rates on December 19” 📈
The Japanese 2-year bond has already jumped to 1.84% → the highest level since 2008.
Brutal translation:
THE FREE YEN CARRY TRADE IS OVER.
For 15 years, funds borrowed yen at 0% and bought EVERYTHING that yielded returns: U.S. stocks, bonds, emerging markets… and yes, also Bitcoin.
Now that “free” money is evaporating.
Result → global liquidation of risk assets.
BTC, Nasdaq, gold… everything bleeds in unison because they are unwinding the mother of all carry trades.
This is not crypto FUD.
This is pure and hard macro.
When the dust settles and the yen stabilizes, money will seek yield again… and guess where the most ridiculous asymmetry is right now.
Breathe deeply.
$BTC
Zoom out.
Buy macro fear, not crypto fear.
This is just the trailer before the next ATH.
