COINOTAG news on September 19 reports via CNBC that Yuya Hasegawa, a noted cryptocurrency market analyst at Japan’s Bitbank, has issued a warning regarding the potential implications of the Bank of Japan’s current policy meeting, which commenced on Thursday. Hasegawa highlighted the possibility of the central bank maintaining its current policy interest rate. However, if there are any indications of upcoming rate hikes, this could strengthen the yen and prompt a retracement in yen carry trades. Such developments may lead to a sell-off in Japanese stocks, potentially triggering widespread risk aversion in the cryptocurrency market. He projects that Bitcoin, while expected to rise during the US trading session, could face immediate short-term target resistance around the $65,000 mark ahead of the Bank of Japan’s final decision.
