$BTC DROPPED BELOW $66,000 JUST BEFORE BANK OF JAPAN RATE DECISION.
Four rate hikes. Four Bitcoin crashes. Same bank. Same result. Will it repeat again?
1st, March 2024. BOJ hiked from 0% to 0.1%. First hike in 17 years. Bitcoin dropped 17% in 43 days.
2nd, July 2024. BOJ hiked to 0.25%. Markets only priced 30% probability. Complete surprise. Nikkei crashed 12% in one day. Yen carry trade unwound overnight. Bitcoin dropped 25% in just 5 days.
3rd, January 2025. BOJ hiked to 0.5%. Bitcoin dropped 28% in 73 days.
4th, December 2025. BOJ hiked to 0.75%. Highest rate since 1995. Bitcoin dropped 30% in 50 days.
Four hikes. Four crashes. Zero exceptions.
But here is what most people missed.
After the first three crashes Bitcoin did not die. Every single correction became the best buying opportunity of the cycle. The people who panicked sold and lost. The people who bought the dip watched Bitcoin run all the way to $126,000.
Now the 5th hike arrives June 16. 49 out of 51 economists expect a move to 1%. Markets pricing 97% probability.
Bitcoin is already down 50% from its October 2025 peak. Another panic correction is likely coming.
The question is not whether it drops. It probably will.
The question is whether you see it the same way smart money saw the first three crashes. Not as a reason to sell. As a reason to accumulate for the next cycle.
The 2028 halving is less than two years away. Every bear market in Bitcoin history ended with the next halving launching a new bull run.
June 16 might give you the entry that 2027 you will wish you had taken.
Rest #DYOR.
