Don't remind me again today

This morning at 7 o'clock, a news broke that caused the market to collapse instantly—Japan's Central Bank may end the negative interest rate era. The yen surged sharply, Bitcoin led the fall, and Ethereum followed suit with a bloodbath, with the total liquidation amount across the network reaching tens of billions of dollars. The timing is so precise, it's truly not a coincidence.



Why Japan in particular? Because this "ATM" might be closing down. For the past decade or so, Japan has been the cheapest wallet in the world: borrowing yen at zero cost and then throwing it into high-risk assets like Bitcoin and US stocks. Now the faucet is about to be tightened, and global liquidity will immediately become tight. Money has become expensive; who would still dare to play high-risk games?

What's even more critical is that this is not a single event, but three forces coming at the same time:

First, on the Federal Reserve's side, "high interest rates are expected to last longer" has become a consensus. Rate cuts? Don't hold your breath in the short term.

Second, the leverage in the crypto world has long piled up like a small mountain. When the prices were rising sharply, no one cared, but now that they are falling, it's a chain reaction, and Get Liquidated just won't stop.

Third, the global regulatory knife has always been hanging. The SEC is watching closely, and the central banks of various countries are also not idle...

The storm has just begun. How to survive next? Three principles must be remembered:

First, reduce leverage; staying alive is more important than anything else. Secondly, keep an eye on every move of the Federal Reserve and the Bank of Japan, and don’t be swayed by market rumors. Finally, be mentally prepared for a long-term fluctuation; the real bottom won't appear in just one day.

However, there are also people looking for opportunities during the crisis. Just like the KITE project, when the market is in turmoil, it is instead carving its own path against the trend. Why is it worth paying more attention to? Because its positioning is a full-chain AI agency infrastructure —
BTC0.21%
ETH3.99%
KITE4.83%

Once Japan's ATMs shut down, the whole world has to tighten its belt. This round of leverage liquidation really seems endless.

When the Bank of Japan makes a move, the whole world trembles. This round is indeed ruthless. With such high leverage piled up, debts have to be repaid sooner or later—now is the time for a shakeout.

When the Bank of Japan takes action, the whole world trembles. This trap has been seen too many times; the real killer move is the depletion of liquidity.

Japan is at it again—whenever liquidity tightens, the crypto market crashes... The leverage junkies should wake up now.

I've been waiting for this issue with the Japanese withdrawal machines for a long time. Those on the leverage mountain should be waking up now, right?

When Japan closed the faucet, tens of billions of dollars evaporated instantly worldwide, this move is indeed ruthless. But to be honest, who can't see this situation? Those people who piled up leverage should have awakened long ago, and now it's too late to regret.
