The Crypto Market Correction Under Macro Resonance: The Yen Interest Rate Hike as the First Domino
Follow ➕ like and forwardتابع ➕ أعجبني وأرسل The crypto market has recently encountered significant selling pressure, with Bitcoin's price retreating to around $85,600, while Ethereum has fallen below the critical level of $3,000, leading to a phase of digestion of previously accumulated gains. Under the impact of this correlation, crypto-related stocks are collectively under pressure, with Strategy and Circle's intraday declines nearing 7%, while leading exchange Coinbase's stock price has dropped over 5%, and mining companies like CLSK, HUT, and WULF have seen declines exceeding 10%. The high-risk asset sector is showing synchronized adjustment. This round of decline is not driven by a single factor, but is the result of the resonance of macro policy turning points, changes in liquidity expectations, and market participants' risk reduction behaviors. Among these, the fermentation of the Bank of Japan's interest rate hike expectations has become the first 'domino' to leverage the whole situation. As a long-term underestimated variable in the global financial system, the impact logic of the yen's interest rate hike has a clear transmission path: Japan has maintained a zero interest rate or even negative interest rate policy for a long time, making the yen the core financing currency for global carry trades. The 'Mrs. Watanabe' group and international investment institutions borrow yen at low costs to invest in cryptocurrencies, U.S. stocks, and other high-yield assets, forming continuous liquidity support. The signal of a December interest rate hike released by Ueda Kazuo has pushed market interest rate hike expectations above 80%. Once the policy is implemented, the rise in yen financing costs and appreciation expectations will create dual pressures, forcing carry traders to massively close their positions, with crypto assets, as typical high-risk targets, being sold off first.
Bearish Sentiment Continues The cryptocurrency market is showing signs of weakness and consolidation today, with the overall sentiment leaning towards Fear in the short term.

Near-Term Outlook: Consolidation is expected. BTC is trading in a tight range as buyers and sellers are at a short-term equilibrium. A drop below a strong support level (e.g., $85,000) could signal a further leg down.Ethereum (ETH): ETH is also seeing price pressure, though it has shown periods of stronger volume activity.🤔 Buy or Sell? (General Market View)This market environment presents a clear dilemma:🛑 Important Factors to WatchMacroeconomic News: Upcoming economic reports and central bank decisions (like the ECB or the next Federal Reserve comments) are expected to heavily influence risk appetite, including crypto.Institutional Flow: Continued ETF net outflows suggest institutional demand is currently weak, a key driver for market recovery.Key Price Levels: Watch BTC's ability to hold the $85,000 support level and break above its short-term resistance (around $92,400 to $95,000).What is your investment horizon?

A few days ago, I looked at the white silver market, and the year-to-date increase has already exceeded 120%, which is indeed quite impressive. Deutsche Bank recently expressed their views, noting that spot silver hit a record high last Friday. It’s worth noting that the gold-silver ratio once fell below 67, the lowest since June 2021, approaching the 50-year average level. From the supply side, the situation is quite clear—global exchange silver inventories have fallen to their lowest levels in nearly ten years, and ETF holdings are also increasing. According to Bloomberg data, silver ETFs have added 1,145 tons over the past month. This inventory pressure has indeed driven prices higher. In the short term, silver’s gains are already quite substantial, and caution is needed regarding the risk of a pullback. But from a long-term fundamental perspective, the situation is actually more worth paying attention to. The World Silver Survey’s demand report indicates that in the coming years, demand for silver in photovoltaic, electric vehicles, data centers, and artificial intelligence will grow significantly. This means the demand-side driving force is still accumulating. So, the current situation is: there is a bubble risk in the short term, but long-term demand support remains solid. For friends who are paying attention to silver trends and precious metal allocations, this is a moment that requires balanced judgment.

“Tenfold in a month”, “Community culture”, “Grassroots counterattack”... these enticing labels make Meme coins eternally filled with deadly attraction. Recently, this sector has gained popularity again, but behind the noise, we must clearly recognize that the essence of Meme coin trading is more like an emotion-driven “high-end casino” rather than value investment.
The value of Meme coins is almost entirely based on community consensus and online popularity; it has no technological moat and no cash flow support. Its price is entirely determined by “stories” and “emotions”. Which celebrity has hyped it again? Which community is holding an event? These are the core fuels driving its price to soar and plummet in the short term.
To participate, you must understand two points:
Every penny you earn is money lost by another participant; this is a zero-sum game. The information gap is vast; project parties and whales (large holders of coins) often layout in advance, and when retail investors rush in upon hearing the news, they may be taking over for others. Insights for ordinary investors: If you decide to participate, be sure to follow the “casino rules”:
Only use money you can afford to completely lose: treat it as entertainment spending, not asset allocation. Firmly set a stop-loss line: once the trend goes against you, exit immediately; do not indulge in fantasies. Do not FOMO: missing out is always better than losing everything. The cryptocurrency market needs not only a “ballast” like Bitcoin but also “seasoning” like Meme coins; the key lies in how you position them. Be clear whether you are “investing” or “speculating”; this will determine your strategy and eventual outcome. #meme板块关注热点 #巨鲸动向 #加密市场观察
$BNB The most dangerous thing right now is not the decline, but the "inaction".
The price has been stuck between 880–900 for more than a day or two, and many people have started to ignore it. But the real market often appears when no one has the patience.
In terms of news, the market has basically digested the old negative news about Binance, and narratives like BNB Chain and the destruction mechanism are being brought up again; On the charts, the price has repeatedly bounced off 880, indicating that funds are still there.
My view is very clear: If 900 does not break, BNB is not weak, but is waiting for direction.
The key level below is 880; if it fails to hold, we look at 840–860; The real threshold above is 930–950; only if it can stabilize here with volume can we discuss 1000+.
Now is not the time to test judgments, but to see who can take action first when breaking through 950 or falling below 880. {spot}(BNBUSDT)
