#bojhikesratesto31yearhigh 🚨 BOJ JUST RAISED RATES TO A 31-YEAR HIGH. 🇯🇵📈
The Bank of Japan raised its policy rate from 1.00% to 1.25%, the highest level in 31 years, in a 7–2 vote.
🔥 Why it matters:
• Higher Japanese rates can reduce the appeal of cheap-yen borrowing.
• Global liquidity could tighten if investors unwind yen-funded positions.
• Risk assets like BTC, ETH and stocks could face short-term volatility.
• But the hike was widely expected, and the yen actually weakened after the decision as markets focused on the BOJ's cautious guidance.
👀 Now all eyes are on Governor Ueda’s comments for clues about the next rate move.
Do you think this BOJ hike will trigger a crypto dump or become a “sell the news” event?
