The Federal Reserve's third rate cut of the year has arrived, but the market has not reacted much. Frankly, this rate cut has already been fully digested, and coupled with internal disagreements within the Federal Reserve on the future policy path, the result is "buy the rumor, sell the fact" — the crypto market has not been boosted.

Now the focus shifts to next week (December 18-19) when the Bank of Japan's meeting will take place. If Japan raises interest rates, it could cause big trouble — yen carry trades might be massively unwound, and liquidity in global risk assets could be drained, putting pressure on Bitcoin as well. This is something to watch closely.

Lowering interest rates is useless now, really a dead end. If Japan really raises interest rates, it will be the end.

Buy the rumor, sell the fact. This routine is old news; after all, that's just how the crypto world operates. If Japan really takes action, we must keep a close eye. If a short squeeze and liquidation really happen, it’s game over. Lowering interest rates is no longer effective; it seems we have to wait for the Bank of Japan’s move. Speaking of the Federal Reserve being so divided internally, does it still have any reference value? If the yen really explodes, global liquidity will be swept away. How will Bitcoin survive? Alright, now just wait for the 18th. Anyway, it’s a pit sooner or later. It’s the same old story: "buy the rumor, sell the fact," played out year after year. If Japan really hikes interest rates, liquidity will be truly killed. Don’t even talk about crypto. This time, it all depends on Japan. The Federal Reserve’s move is already a foregone conclusion. Short squeeze liquidation? Don’t say we didn’t warn you then.

Buying rumors and selling the news is really a brilliant move, but now it's all been played out. If Japan really raises interest rates, the carry trade crowd will be crying to death. Bitcoin will get a bloodbath. No reaction to rate cuts? Truly numb, brother. Next week, the Bank of Japan—this is the real killer move. Liquidity is about to be drained? Let's see who can still take the bait then. The Fed's money printing is already a waste; the market has long been over it. When the yen carry trade is closed out, well, the whole world will suffer. The Federal Reserve's liquidity injections are pointless; the market has already digested it. Once the yen carry trade is unwound, the whole world will suffer. Honestly, now we're just waiting for the Bank of Japan to take a hit. Bitcoin is under immense pressure right now; at critical moments, watch the central bank's stance. Retail investors hate the most being "pre-emptively digested." This round really didn't bring any surprises.

Interest rate cuts are already so useless... they've been played out long ago If Japan really raises interest rates, I'll just completely sell off, there's no need to play along Waiting to see how the Bank of Japan will do it, feels like a powder keg about to blow Buy on rumors, sell on realization—this routine has long lost its effectiveness in the crypto circle Once liquidity is drained, it's only surprising if BTC can hold up Once the yen arbitrage closes, the global markets will all have to kneel; we're out of the game Already mentally prepared, next week will be a hurdle Even the Fed can't reach a clear consensus internally, how can we expect to save the market? Actually, everyone is just waiting for signals from the Bank of Japan; everything else is useless

Lowering interest rates is pointless; the market has already seen through it. Now we're just waiting to see how the Bank of Japan will play it. If they actually raise rates, we'll be in trouble.

The rate cuts have become numbingly routine, and this time there’s really no movement... It was already priced in, brother. Japan is the real bomb; when they hike interest rates and the yen carry trade gets liquidated, our liquidity gets drained completely. How can BTC survive? Buying on rumors and selling on the news—this old trick always fools people. Waiting to see the Bank of Japan’s performance; it feels like something’s about to go wrong. Internal conflicts within the Federal Reserve; policy directions don’t align, no wonder the market has no reaction. The feeling of liquidity being drained is so uncomfortable… Gotta hold your positions tight this weekend.
