Japan Warns U.S.: "Play Nice or We Dump $1 Trillion in U.S. Bonds"
Japan Warns U.S.: "Play Nice or We Dump $1 Trillion in U.S. Bonds"
$BTC $BNB
Japan just dropped a bombshell in its trade fight with the U.S.—threatening to sell off its $1.13 trillion stash of U.S. Treasury bonds if Trump’s trade war goes too far.
Finance Minister Katsunobu Kato openly admitted on national TV that Japan could use its massive U.S. debt holdings as a negotiation weapon. When asked if Japan would ever dump Treasuries to push back against Trump’s tariffs, Kato said: “It exists as a card. Whether we use it is another question.”
This is a big deal because Japan—the world’s largest foreign holder of U.S. debt—has never talked like this before. But after Trump hit Japan with new tariffs in April, Tokyo is done playing nice.
Why This Threat Matters:
- U.S. markets panic when bond yields spike (we saw this in April when Trump first announced tariffs).
- If Japan sells even a fraction of its holdings, U.S. borrowing costs could skyrocket.
- China ($1+ trillion in U.S. debt too) could join in, making the crisis worse.
Japan’s top trade negotiator just finished tense talks in Washington, and while no details were released, it’s clear Japan is done begging for fairness. They’re now saying: "Push us again, and we’ll crash your bond market."
What’s Next?
- More negotiations in May.
- A possible deal by June.
- But Japan is no longer backing down.
Bottom Line: The U.S. depends on Japan and China to buy its debt. If either nation starts dumping, the financial fallout could be massive. Japan just showed its hand—will Trump call the bluff?

🔥🌟Japan Intensifies Crypto Regulations, Urges Apple & Google to Ban Unregistered Exchanges🚨💥💸
🇯🇵 Japan’s Financial Services Agency (FSA) has escalated its regulatory efforts by urging Apple and Google to remove five cryptocurrency exchanges from their app stores. The platforms affected include Bybit, MEXC Global, LBank, KuCoin, and Bitget, all of which were found operating in Japan without the mandatory registration under the Payment Services Act.
📉 Apple has already taken action, removing these apps from its Japanese store on Thursday, while Google has yet to respond. The FSA had previously issued public warnings against these exchanges, but they continued offering services through mobile applications and websites. This move aims to curb unregistered crypto trading in the country.
🛑 While blocking apps prevents new downloads, access via websites remains a challenge. Reports suggest that the FSA is actively exploring additional measures to further restrict unauthorized crypto platforms. This crackdown reinforces Japan’s commitment to a secure and regulated digital asset ecosystem.
