Japan could be about to shake the markets 🇯🇵 here’s why this matters



This is a major macro event, so let’s break it down step by step 👇

The Bank of Japan is expected to raise interest rates by 0.25%. Japan is also one of the largest holders of U.S. government debt. When Japanese rates rise, capital has an incentive to flow back into Japan instead of remaining in global markets.

That shift reduces global liquidity.

And when liquidity tightens, risk assets feel it first. Bitcoin falls squarely into that category. As liquidity leaves the system, BTC often comes under pressure which is why this event matters so much for traders.

Now let’s look at data, not opinions.

Historically, Bitcoin has reacted sharply after recent BOJ rate hikes:

March 2024 → BTC fell ~23%

July 2024 → BTC fell ~26%

January 2025 → BTC fell ~31%

Does this mean the same move is guaranteed? No. Markets never move in perfect repetition.

But it does tell us one thing clearly: BOJ rate hikes have consistently triggered major volatility in Bitcoin.

If sellers regain control, BTC could easily revisit the $70,000 region 🚫

This is exactly why timing, structure, liquidity, and macro analysis matter 👊

Just today, while most traders on Binance were expecting a recovery bounce after yesterday’s drop, PandaTraders warned that Bitcoin could dump again from the 90K zone and that’s exactly what played out.
BTC broke back below $90,000, following the plan shared in advance.

That’s the level of precision PandaTraders focuses on: reading liquidity, market structure, and macro conditions before the move happens.
