🚨 Bank of England just hiked rates for the first time in 3 years

• Policy rate up 0.25% → now at 4.00%
• First hike since Aug 2023 (3y 3mo gap)
• Catalyst: Middle East tensions spiking energy prices + inflation flaring back up

Risk-off macro incoming. Watch $BTC correlation to trad fi liquidity — if real yields climb, crypto liquidity gets squeezed. DXY strength could pressure alts hard.

Stay liquid. This isn't 2021.
