Japan's equity markets are catching momentum this week. The Nikkei index climbed 3% as artificial intelligence-related stocks led the rally, while a weakening yen provided additional tailwinds for exporters and tech companies. When currencies depreciate, it typically benefits overseas earnings for multinaneous firms—a dynamic that tends to spill into risk sentiment across global markets, including digital assets. The combination of AI enthusiasm and macro stimulus effects remains a key driver for risk-on trading.

Japan's recent AI hype really can't hold up anymore, and the weak yen is causing trouble again? Let's wait and see if it will trigger a collapse in global risk assets.

How long can Japan's current AI hype last? The weak yen arbitrage is about to resume.

This wave of AI fever in Japan is really incredible. The weak yen is giving exporters a huge boost... Should our crypto circle also get excited along with it?

Japan's recent AI boom is really strong, and the weaker yen makes it even more exciting, with exporters taking off... Wait, could this be a prelude to another round of profit-taking?

The current AI boom in Japan is indeed a strong driver, but a weak yen is the real killer... Exporters are thrilled, and the crypto world is also benefiting. This kind of risk appetite often comes in waves, so don't take it too seriously.

The AI hype over in Japan has driven the market, and the weak yen is also beneficial for exporters. Basically, it's a rotation of risk assets under loose expectations, and digital assets are riding the wave. I've seen this macro liquidity story too many times — many projects have been audited and built on this wave of dividends, but their code quality is actually average. If you ask me, don't just look at the surface-level increase in risk appetite; you need to check whether the underlying contracts have reentrancy vulnerabilities or if permissions are properly controlled. Otherwise, even abundant liquidity can't save the liquidation chain caused by integer overflow.
