Global Carry Trade & BTC: Liquidity Drives the Market



The global carry trade fuels demand for the US dollar, reinforcing its status as the world's reserve currency. Investors borrow in low-rate economies (like Japan or the EU) and allocate funds into higher-yielding dollar-denominated assets. This cycle directly impacts risk assets like BTC—when liquidity is abundant, capital flows into crypto; when the dollar strengthens, markets face pressure.

💡 Key Takeaways:🔹 Liquidity Matters More Than Just Money Supply – The Fed's QE in the past didn’t always drive consumer inflation, but its effects on market liquidity were significant.🔹 Diverging Policies – The Fed builds bank reserves, while the US Treasury floods the market with short-term bonds, creating a strong liquidity wave that fuels risk assets.🔹 Cross-Currency Swaps as a Signal – If swaps become more expensive, dollar liquidity shrinks, and BTC could face downward pressure.

📉 What’s Next?Markets are closely watching global liquidity trends. If conditions tighten, BTC and other risk assets could face stronger sell-offs.

🚀 Will liquidity continue fueling BTC’s rise, or is a correction ahead? Let’s discuss!
