🔥Japan has raised interest rates, and BTC didn't crash? Don't be fooled by the sideways movement, an even bigger storm is approaching!
The Bank of Japan's stock price for raising interest rates has stabilized, and many old coins in the currency circle have already placed low-limit orders, waiting to grab those damn chips.
As a result, when he woke up, Danzie was lying there eating ashes, and the market was so calm that it was eerily quiet.
Is it good to be bearish? Missed by a large margin! In this calm market, there is a subtext that could turn the entire market upside down!
First, understand the essence of this interest rate hike — it is not active regulation at all, but a passive compromise after inflation exceeded the norm for four consecutive years, and the yen's devaluation pressure was strong! Foreign media mock the Bank of Japan: why did you leave earlier? The president shouted: "Look at the data to make decisions," but everyone who understands the reliability of this data understands it.
More importantly: the next window for raising interest rates will have to be postponed until the salary negotiations in Japan next spring! This means that the "tap" of cheap yen will not be turned off instantly but will continue to drain market liquidity, slicing flesh and bleeding slowly.
So why didn't BTC crash? The only answer: the institutional counterpart is too strong!
At the same time, when the Bank of Japan raised interest rates, more than half of the 25 largest US banks entered the crypto market! Goldman Sachs and JPMorgan Chase opened Bitcoin trading channels for the wealthy, and PNC directly launched a crypto lending business.
On one side, there is the "macro pump" of the Bank of Japan, and on the other side — the "institutional pump" of American giants, and these two main forces are stumbling on the market! Now, the emergence of this silent wrestling is appearing!
3 serious reminders for ordinary retail investors
1. Structural differentiation is madness: the "pump" of institutions only pours into Bitcoin! Next, support for BTC will become stronger, and the risks of volatility and liquidity of altcoins (including ETH) will grow rapidly.
2. Watch for the new liquidity valve: stop stumbling over trading depth! The key to the future is to pay attention to two signals: the speed of encryption business at American banking giants and Japan's salary negotiation results "spring struggle," which are at the core of fund flow formation!
3. Be patient and wait for signals. Don't become cannon fodder: before the two main forces decide the winner or loser, the market will most likely maintain "stalemate fluctuations." Now, chasing the rise and destroying the fall, we send it into the institution’s meat grinder!
Finally, I want to note that Musk's DOW is shouting orders: In the face of the big macro and institutional game narrative, any purely conceptual hype is a paper tiger! When the tide of mobility recedes, you'll realize who is swimming naked!
💬 Let's talk! In this final confrontation between the "shaker" and the "pump," who do you think will get the advantage first? Are you more optimistic about the institutional bull of Bitcoin next year, or are you worried about a big bear market with tightening global liquidity?
