🚨 Why Japan's Interest Rate Hike Is Bad for Crypto
The Bank of Japan raised rates to 0.75% in Jan 2026 — highest since 1995 — with another hike to 1% expected in April. Here's why it matters 👇
For years, investors borrowed cheap Japanese yen and invested it into Bitcoin & crypto (the "yen carry trade"). When Japan hikes rates, the yen strengthens — forcing traders to SELL crypto to repay loans.
📉 Liquidity dries up. Bitcoin drops.
After Jan's hike, BTC fell ~3%. A 1% rate could push a 4–5% drop toward $60K.

Everyone blamed the market crash on everything except the real cause
BTC was at $126K in October. Then Trump announced 100% tariffs on China on October 10. Within 24 hours $19 billion in positions got liquidated. That single day started a 4 month decline that took us all the way to $60K
Then February happened again. Supreme Court struck down Trump's original tariffs. He fired back the same day with a new 15% global tariff under a different law. BTC dipped to $64K then bounced back to $68K
Here's what's interesting though. The market barely moved on the February tariff news compared to October.

BTC$BTC is back in focus after rallying above $69,500 alongside a positive shift in the U.S. stock market. Clearer U.S. policy signals and strong corporate earnings helped boost risk appetite, spilling over into crypto as traders repositioned into higher-risk assets.
With equities turning green, momentum now favors bulls as they eye a potential push toward the $70,000 psychological level. The correlation between stocks and crypto remains a key driver, reinforcing BTC$BTC’s sensitivity to broader macro sentiment.
