Bank of Japan signals: benchmark interest rate may continue to rise

【BitPush】Japan’s latest stance by the Bank of Japan has attracted attention. Bank of Japan Governor Haruhiko Kuroda revealed at the annual meeting of the Japan Bankers Association that if the economic outlook proceeds as planned, the central bank does not rule out further increases in the benchmark interest rate. He emphasized that flexible adjustment of monetary easing policies is a key measure at present — which is crucial for stabilizing prices and supporting long-term economic growth.

What does this mean? In simple terms, the central bank is weighing the balance between inflationary pressures and economic growth. The shift in monetary policy often affects global capital flows, including the allocation logic of crypto assets. As easing policies gradually exit, market pricing of risk assets will also adjust accordingly.
