The conference room in Tokyo has determined tonight's market trend.
The Bank of Japan is about to make its most critical interest rate decision in thirty years. This is not just an issue for Asia — once the cost of yen arbitrage rises, a global institutional sell-off will be triggered, and Bitcoin often takes the brunt of it. History tells us that the last three interest rate hikes in Japan led to an average decline of nearly 30% in Bitcoin.
But there is a sharper question behind this worth pondering: when Bitcoin's rise and fall is dominated by the decision-making rooms in Washington and Tokyo, has what we have been calling "decentralization" already become a bargaining chip for traditional capital?
Perhaps the answer lies down another path. The logic of decentralized US dollar (USDD) is straightforward—it does not rely on any central bank endorsement, but is built on an on-chain verifiable over-collateralization mechanism. Diverse assets such as BTC and TRX serve as anchors, with each USDD reserve being transparently disclosed; trust comes from mathematics rather than policy expectations.
In simple terms, it is to build an independent stability system within the crypto ecosystem, isolating external shocks with self-owned assets. This is the true "trust through stability."

It's the Bank of Japan causing trouble again, should we run? LOL, do they really think USDD can avoid the macro hammer?

Can a conference in Tokyo crash the market for thirty years? Now that's true centralization, haha.

Another trap of getting liquidated through arbitrage? These people in Tokyo really have the final say.

It's the Bank of Japan causing trouble again, getting caught in the crossfire every time... A 30% fall isn't exaggerated, right?

As soon as Japan raises interest rates, we’ll be played for suckers again... Speaking of which, the logic of USDD sounds good, but can it really withstand institutional dumping? It still feels like changing the soup but not the medicine.

Those people in Tokyo are going to make a fuss again, and our coin will follow the trend and fall?

Here we go again, the Bank of Japan is pulling tricks and we have to fall along with it, is this still called Decentralization? It's hilarious.
