Since February, the entire crypto market has been in a painful downtrend.

Here are the 2 main reasons behind this massive dump:

✅US STOCK MARKET CRASH

Over the past few weeks, the US stock market has wiped out over $5.5 trillion in value.

The big trigger? Trump’s $TRUMP tariff announcement, which has injected serious uncertainty into the markets.

The NASDAQ is down more than 10% and is now officially in correction territory.

Since crypto and stocks are highly correlated, Bitcoin $BTC

and altcoins$ALT

are getting dragged down too.

✅ JAPAN’S RISING BOND YIELDS

Japan’s 20-year bond yield just hit its highest level since 2006.

This is triggering the unwinding of the Yen carry trade — investors who borrowed cheap yen to invest globally are now pulling out.

This is similar to the crash we saw in August 2024 due to the same carry trade pressures.

✴️WHAT’S NEXT?

Right now, both crypto and stock markets are sitting in oversold territory — and that often leads to sharp bounces.

The market seems to have priced in most of the bad news.

I expect a few more weeks of rough price action… but once that’s over:

We’re gonna win so much, we’ll be tired of winning.
