🇯🇵 How Do BOJ Interest Rate Decisions Affect Crypto?
The Bank of Japan (BOJ) has a much larger impact than expected on crypto markets through yen carry trade. Capital borrowed in low-interest yen and invested in risky assets quickly exits the market when the BOJ raises interest rates. The result: sharp crypto declines.
📉 Historical Pattern Clear
Crypto has seen a 20-30% drop after each tightening step by the BOJ:
March 2024: Negative interest rates ended → BTC dropped 23-27%
July 2024: Interest rate 0.5% → BTC dropped from $65K to $50K
January 2025: Tightening signal → BTC pulled back 30%+

In 2025, the renewed escalation of the US-China trade war, coupled with ongoing Israeli-Iranian tensions in the Middle East and the Russia-Ukraine conflict, brought global geopolitical risks to a peak. These developments led to high volatility in Bitcoin (BTC) and cryptocurrency markets. For example, in October, Trump's new tariffs on China caused BTC to fall from $126,000 to $107,000. Similarly, the Middle East attacks in June caused BTC to experience short-term drops of 4-8%. While geopolitical risks are pushing investors to avoid risky assets, BTC is partly fulfilling a safe-haven role as "
