【Reversal or Trap? Bitcoin's "Silence" Under Japan's Rate Hike】

How many people placed low-price orders last night, waiting for Japan's rare rate hike to crush Bitcoin into a pit? The 0.75% interest rate increase has arrived, and what’s the result? — The market strangely quieted down. Bitcoin didn't fall, but this calm itself is the most terrifying.

Why is this happening? Because two huge forces are battling beneath the market:

One side is Japan's "liquidity drain." Decades of low-interest rates are over, and arbitrage capital is retreating from global risk assets. The good days of cheap yen arbitrage are over, and liquidity is shrinking.

The other side is the US's "money printing." Leading institutions like BlackRock and Fidelity are continuously injecting billions of dollars into Bitcoin ETFs every day.

Your so-called "sideways movement"? That’s a tense standoff between bulls and bears. Once one side suddenly relaxes, don’t expect gentle adjustments — the market will either plummet steeply or surge directly, with no middle ground.

The most heartbreaking point is this: institutions use data models and algorithms for precise control, while retail investors chase gains or cut losses based on news and feelings. In this game, one is operating with a god’s eye view, the other is fumbling on the ground. The ending has long been written.

So what should we do now?

**Abandon shortcut thinking.** The era of making quick money through news is over; this is the age of institutional pricing.

**Explore intrinsic value.** Instead of betting on price directions, find decentralized value points that don’t follow macro trends — these are the true anchors that can withstand cycles.

**Wait for real opportunities.** Take the current calm as a deep breath before the storm. Shrink positions where needed, keep reserve bullets, and wait for the whale battles to truly end — only then will the trend become clear.

In the firefight between the liquidity pump and the printing press, survival is more valuable than making money. When this strange balance is broken, are you ready?

Basically, everyone is just waiting for the other side to make the first move, while retail investors are here watching the show.

Damn, this calmness is even more terrifying than a big drop. The institutions are over there playing chess while we're still watching the K-line.

Waiting again for Japan to raise interest rates and crash the market? Wake up, institutions have already set the rhythm long ago.

It's that same narrative of "institutions vs retail investors" again... But to be fair, this round of Japanese rate hikes is indeed strange. Normally, there should be a sell-off, but there's no movement, which is a bit unsettling.
