From yen rate hikes to mining farms shutting down, why is bitcoin still falling?
The recent decline in bitcoin prices is primarily driven by expectations of a rate hike by the Bank of Japan, uncertainty regarding the US Federal Reserve's rate cut trajectory, and systemic de-risking by market participants. Japan's potential rate hike may trigger the unwinding of global arbitrage trades, leading to a sell-off in risk assets. At the same time, increased uncertainty over US rate cuts has intensified market volatility. In addition, selling by long-term holders, miners, and market makers has further amplified the price drop.

The President of the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta will become a voting member of the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC), which is responsible for setting interest rates, in 2027.

- 04:03Bitwise CIO: Bitcoin Will Break the Four-Year Cycle and Reach a New All-Time High in 2026Jinse Finance reported that on December 16, Bitwise Chief Investment Officer Matt Hougan published an article stating that Bitwise will release its "Top Ten Predictions for 2026" tomorrow, with three key forecasts: 1. Bitcoin will break the four-year cycle and reach a new all-time high; 2. Bitcoin's volatility will be lower than Nvidia's; 3. The correlation between Bitcoin and stocks will decrease. Matt Hougan noted that according to the four-year cycle theory, 2026 should be a year of correction. However, Bitwise believes this will not happen. The factors that have driven the four-year cycle in the past—Bitcoin halving, interest rate cycles, and the boom-and-bust driven by crypto leverage—have all become significantly weaker compared to previous cycles. As platforms such as Morgan Stanley, Wells Fargo, and Merrill Lynch begin to allocate Bitcoin, the wave of institutional capital flowing into the crypto space since the approval of spot Bitcoin ETFs in 2024 will accelerate in 2026. Meanwhile, as Wall Street and fintech companies begin to seriously adopt cryptocurrencies, the industry will also start to benefit from a favorable shift in regulatory policy following the 2024 election. It is expected that the combined effect of these factors will push Bitcoin to a new all-time high and consign the four-year cycle to the dustbin of history.
