#以太坊行情解读 🔥Japan rate hike countdown, the market atmosphere has been a bit different these past couple of days.

I actually mentioned before that Japan's short-term rate hike might not have as big an impact on BTC as one might imagine—after all, Bitcoin's size within the global financial system is still too small to truly resonate with sovereign monetary policies.

But recently, I looked at the data and found that the global search interest for the keyword "Japan rate hike" has hit a ten-year high. The buzz from the rate hikes in 2024 has been completely overshadowed.

What does this indicate? It shows that the market is genuinely nervous. Almost all investors are watching this closely, and panic sentiment is evident.

From a psychological perspective, this "全民搜索" (全民搜索) state is quite telling—expectations are often already nearly exhausted.

Looking back at history, after Japan's three rate hikes, the market generally entered a short-term downtrend. Although other macro factors were involved at the time, the overall rhythm was still weak.

The current market consensus is very unified: Japan's rate hike is basically a certainty, with a probability close to 100%, the only question is when it will be officially announced.

So, the real focus now isn't on "whether to hike or not," but on how the market will react once the rate hike is officially implemented. An interesting phenomenon is that when everyone is panicking and waiting for bad news, it often means the worst has already been digested.
