The Bank of Japan raised the benchmark interest rate to 0.75%, hitting a 30-year high. The market initially plunged, then rebounded. My view is that this wave of impact has been largely absorbed—although the appreciation of the yen will attract some foreign capital to flow back, in the short term, this impact is limited.

The real focus should still be on the US side. Year-end tax planning, holiday scheduling, and other factors will all influence market liquidity. The period from late December to early January usually presents good opportunities. I am already preparing, ready to fire when the right moment comes. The long-term logic of BTC remains unchanged; it’s just a matter of how to seize this window.

Japan has already digested this wave, the real drama is in the United States. The key is liquidity at the end of the year, just waiting for that window period. The bullets are loaded, just waiting for the opportunity at the end of December. Yen appreciation can't attract much, it's the US dollar liquidity that determines everything. Wait a minute, will there be any new tricks coming out from the US side? The BTC logic hasn’t changed, it's all about how to seize the opportunity. Once the holiday schedule is out, there might be an opportunity. I’m already prepared, just lacking a good price.

The recent interest rate hike in Japan, to be honest, has been somewhat exaggerated. The rebound is just a rebound, nothing too complicated, and the real focus should be on how the money moves in the US. Year-end tax planning can indeed cause liquidity gaps, that's a point. Once the window period is over, it's all about positioning; don't get caught up in FOMO rushing to buy in. Having bullets loaded is just for listening; the key is whether the entry price can really be hit. I feel that Bitcoin's long-term logic is solid, but this past month has been really gambling-heavy. Let's wait and see.

This 0.75% move in Japan is honestly just a fake-out; the real show is still in the US. I've already sold half of my holdings and am waiting for the window in late December to get in. The moment to go all-in is coming.

Japan's Nawa is old news now; the real wave is still in the US. As for liquidity at the end of the year, it's like a martini—it's all about the right ratio—too diluted and it's boring, too strong and it’s prone to flipping over. I'm just waiting here to see if a perfect surfing spot will emerge by the end of December.
