🚨 MACRO ALERT: Japan Rate Hike Tomorrow — Why Bitcoin Is at Risk
Yesterday, I warned about this.
Now it’s almost certain.
📊 99.82% probability that Japan hikes rates.
Historically, Bitcoin has dropped 20%+ after every major rate hike.
But this time, the risk is bigger than Bitcoin.
This isn’t about a small 0.25% move.
It’s about what breaks when Japan finally ends ultra-cheap money.
Here’s what most people are missing 👇
For years, Japan has been the cheapest source of capital on earth.
Institutions:
→ Borrowed yen at near-zero rates
→ Converted to USD
→ Bought stocks, bonds, crypto, private credit
Yes — a lot of BTC was bought with cheap yen leverage.
Now ask yourself:
What happens when that leverage suddenly costs money?
Exactly.
Why this matters for Bitcoin specifically
During the 2022 Fed hikes, BTC dropped 67% in months.
These moves don’t happen slowly:
• They hit during illiquid hours
• They come with no buyers underneath
• They happen fast
BTC is usually the first to be sold because:
– It trades 24/7
– It’s highly liquid
– Funds sell what they can sell immediately
– Stronger yen pressures USD risk assets
That’s why past BOJ shifts caused sharp drops, not gentle pullbacks.
Warning signs already on the chart ⚠️
– Tight 5% price ranges
– Volatility spikes in Asia session
– Sudden selloffs with no news
If the BOJ hikes and signals more to come, the message is clear:
🌍 Cheap global liquidity is ending. Forced selling begins.
This doesn’t mean BTC goes to zero.
Bitcoin is far more mature than in 2022.
But the easy-leverage phase is over.
📉 This is how major market resets usually start.
If you’re over-leveraged, rethink your risk ASAP.
If you’re patient, this is often where **real opportunities are born**.
I’m watching this closely — and you should too. 👀📉$BTC
