Bitcoin Faces Japan Interest Rate Hike: Concerns Over Yen Carry Trade Unravel Miss the Target, Real Risk Lies Elsewhere
Issue Summary
Bitcoin is facing Japan's interest rate hikes. However, current concerns regarding the unwinding of carry trades against the yen appear to be missing the real risk. Since speculators are maintaining net long positions on the yen, the likelihood of a sudden yen appreciation and large-scale carry trade unwinding is limited. This issue criticizes the view that the Bank of Japan's interest rate hikes will primarily lead to a stronger yen. The real risk may lie elsewhere.
