In the early session, BTC dropped directly to around 87, and the support level predicted last night was tested so quickly.
The market is looking for reasons: some say it is due to fluctuations in regional policies, but I think the impact is not that significant; what is more critical may be the hawkish signals released by the Bank of Japan's governor, which have heightened expectations for interest rate hikes. The US stock index futures are also falling in sync.
Once the yen raises interest rates and the interest rate differential between the US and Japan narrows, those funds relying on carry trades will have to withdraw in advance. This logic has been mentioned repeatedly before — when borrowing costs rise, leveraged games naturally become unplayable, and risk assets are the first to be affected.

The Bank of Japan's move was truly unexpected; the carry trade funds have fled so quickly, and the leveraged positions have collapsed directly.

The Bank of Japan's recent operations are really aggressive; the Rug Pull of interest-bearing funds will indeed trigger a chain reaction.

Damn, the Bank of Japan is really causing trouble. As soon as the trap funds are withdrawn, this is the outcome.

Here we go again... Last night's support level was broken immediately, this trap of funding withdrawal is really merciless.
