🚨 BOJ Rate Hike Alert — Bitcoin at Risk?
Markets are pricing a 98% probability that the Bank of Japan will raise rates by 25 bps this week.
This may sound small — but for Bitcoin, it’s a big deal.
Japan has long been the world’s cheapest source of leverage through the yen carry trade. As rates rise, that trade weakens, forcing investors to sell risk assets — including crypto.
📉 History is worrying:
March 2024: BTC −23%
July 2024: BTC −25%
Jan 2025: BTC −30%
Bitcoin is already below $90K, and some analysts warn a drop toward $70K if the pattern repeats.
⚠️ Short-term volatility is high. Trade carefully.
