ING’s latest analysis points out that the yield on the 10-year US Treasury bond is currently holding above 4% and has further room to rise. This trend is not favorable for high-risk assets such as cryptocurrencies, as rising yields often indicate tighter financial conditions and declining risk appetite. Currently, the yield on the 10-year US Treasury stands at 4.09%. Despite several economic indicators, including the ADP employment report, showing weakness—with US employment numbers shrinking for the third time in five months in November—yields have demonstrated notable resilience. In a client report on Thursday, ING stated that US Treasury yields have recently fluctuated mainly in the 4% to 4.1% range. “Although a short-term drop below this range is possible, once yields break above the upper end, the likelihood of continued increases is greater.”

Kevin Hassett has emerged as a leading candidate to succeed Jerome Powell as Federal Reserve Chair in 2026, creating a clear divide between Wall Street and the cryptocurrency market. Reports indicate that bond investors have privately expressed concerns to the U.S. Treasury, believing that if Hassett were to become Fed Chair, he might push for rapid and politically influenced rate cuts, potentially threatening market stability. According to the Financial Times, Wall Street banks, asset management firms, and the Treasury Borrowing Advisory Committee warned in a November meeting that Hassett might opt for rate cuts even if inflation remains above the 2% target. They noted that Hassett emphasized political issues during briefings, raising questions about his ability to maintain the central bank’s independence. Prediction market data shows Hassett’s odds of becoming Fed Chair are as high as 75%, far surpassing other contenders like Waller and Warsh.

According to BlockBeats, on December 4, as disclosed by Fox Business reporter Charles Gasparino, insiders on Wall Street and in the US business community are making last-ditch efforts to warn Trump about the issue of selecting Kevin Hassett as the Federal Reserve Chairman. The main argument from Wall Street and the business community is that, given the political nature of Hassett's previous work (Director of the US National Economic Council) and his past experience, he lacks credibility among Federal Reserve staff and the markets, while the markets seek an independent Fed. Appointing Hassett would lead to a rise in long-term interest rates and chaos within the Fed. If Hassett manages to lower short-term rates through a split vote under persistent inflationary pressures (as Trump desires), it would be seen as political intervention and trigger inflation. Mortgage and consumer rates are benchmarked against the 10-year Treasury bond, and if

BlockBeats news, on December 2, MicroStrategy first hinted at "possibly selling coins". The company announced it would raise funds through a stock issuance to establish a cash reserve of $1.44 billion to cope with the "Bitcoin winter" and stated that if the internal indicator mNAV falls below 1 and it cannot refinance, it will consider selling some Bitcoin. This news breaks its long-held image of "never selling coins" and, combined with approximately $82 billion in convertible bond pressure, caused the stock price to plummet over 12% during Monday's trading, expanding the year's decline to about 40%, with Bitcoin also dropping over 4%. BiyaPay analysts believe this signals that leading institutions are starting to reserve the "save the core by abandoning the vehicle" option for extreme market conditions, which may exacerbate the fluctuation of Bitcoin and related concept stocks in the short term. Users can trade US stocks MSTR and Bitcoin and other digital assets on BiyaPay using USDT.

BlockBeats news, on December 2, as the largest overseas creditor of U.S. Treasury bonds, Japan may trigger the repatriation of domestic funds from U.S. Treasury bonds and other overseas assets if it tightens its monetary policy, disrupting the downward trend of U.S. Treasury yield and adding uncertainty to the global market. On Monday, after Bank of Japan Governor Kazuo Ueda hinted at a possible interest rate hike later this month, global government bond yields generally rose (yields rise when bond prices fall). This statement surprised investors, who had expected the Bank of Japan to remain inactive. Ueda's remarks pushed Japan's 10-year government bond yield up to 1.879%—the highest closing level since June 2008. The U.S. 10-year Treasury yield also rose to close at 4.095%, while it was slightly below 4% in the middle of last week. Wall Street is concerned that the rise in Japanese bond yields will attract funds away from U.S. investments.

Bitcoin long positions have been hoping that the Fed will cut interest rates, leading to a decline in bond yields and a weaker dollar, thus bringing a new round of risk appetite to the crypto market. However, despite strong expectations for interest rate cuts, the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield and the dollar index have shown resilience, posing challenges to this traditional logic. The market generally expects the Fed to cut interest rates by 25 basis points on December 10, continuing the easing cycle that began last September. Several institutions even predict that rates will further drop to 3% next year. According to historical patterns, a decrease in interest rates usually lowers government bond yields and weakens the dollar, creating a favorable environment for risk assets like Bitcoin.

According to Jinse Finance, the demand for Japan's 10-year government bond auction on Tuesday was stronger than the average level of the past 12 months, despite the rising expectations for the Central Bank's recent interest rate hike. The bid-to-cover ratio was 3.59, up from 2.97 in the last auction in November and the 12-month average of 3.20. This auction took place after Bank of Japan Governor Kazuo Ueda made comments on Monday, which the market believes increased the likelihood of a rate hike later this month. Ueda stated that the Bank of Japan would weigh the pros and cons of raising interest rates and take appropriate action, adding that even after a rate hike, financial conditions would remain accommodative. Currently, the swap market indicates an approximately 80% chance of a rate hike at the policy meeting on December 19, while the likelihood of a January rate hike has risen to over 90%. In contrast, just a week ago, the probability of a December rate hike was only 36%. Meanwhile, the Japanese Ministry of Finance plans to increase short.

Iren Ltd. plans to raise $2 billion through two batches of Convertible Bonds, each totaling $1 billion, with bond maturities in 2032 and 2033, and a coupon Intrerest Rate between 0% and 1%.

On December 1st, during the Asian early session, the price of Bitcoin fell nearly 5%, dropping below $87,000, erasing recent gains. This decline is mainly attributed to the surge in Japanese government bond yields, which triggered a risk aversion sentiment, coupled with low trading volume leading to severe market liquidity shortages. Data shows that Bitcoin has moved down from the $91,000 consolidation range, with the total market capitalization of Crypto Assets evaporating by about $150 billion. 10x Research pointed out that the crypto market experienced its lowest trading volume week since July, with a thin order book unable to withstand institutional selling pressure, causing the price decline to evolve from a technical correction into a liquidity crisis. BRN research director Timothy Misir stated that this is not a controlled correction, but rather a liquidity shock caused by position adjustments and macro re-pricing. In November, Bitcoin's market capitalization fell by nearly 18%, and market momentum quickly reversed, forcing leveraged long positions to be liquidated.

Japan's 10-year government bond yield rose to 1.86%, reaching a new high since 2008 and triggering tremors in global markets. As the Bank of Japan hinted that it would consider raising interest rates at the December rate meeting, the long-standing era of low interest rates may come to an end, directly threatening the support for global risk assets and Yen Carry Trade in the crypto market. In the past year, Japan's government bond yields nearly doubled, with the two-year yield reaching 1% for the first time since 2008. Although 1.86% is still considered low globally, it represents a significant structural change for Japan, a country that has long been in a "zero interest rate" environment. The low interest rates had allowed global investors to borrow yen at extremely low costs, flooding into U.S. Treasuries, European bonds, and high-risk assets, including encryption. However, as domestic yields rise, funds may begin to flow back to Japan.

PANews December 1st news, Japan's 30-year government bond yield briefly touched 3.395%, setting a new historical high. Japan's 20-year government bond yield rose 5.5 basis points to 2.88%, reaching the highest level since June 1999.

BlockBeats reported that on November 27, the renowned economist Nouriel Roubini has carried the nickname "Dr. Doom" for nearly two decades. This economist believes that after a brief period of cooling growth, a strong rebound driven by technology and capital expenditure will follow, allowing the U.S. to maintain its leading position in the world. He pointed out that, first, market discipline, rational advisors, and the independence of the Fed protected the worst policies after the "Day of Liberation." Due to a rapid and substantial adjustment in the market, Trump had to concede and negotiate a more reasonable trade protocol. The current popular view—that the U.S. stock market is in a massive bubble destined to burst—is incorrect in the medium term. Roubini noted that increased GDP growth may lead to rising real bond yields, but a massive positive total supply shock driven by technology could.

The European Central Bank report indicates that stablecoins may pose risks to financial stability, especially when investors lose confidence in their redemption capabilities. Tether and Circle, as the largest holders of U.S. Treasury bonds, may trigger a bank run that could lead to the dumping of reserve assets, impacting the $25 trillion U.S. Treasury bond market. Despite pressure on the banking industry, the U.S. continues to support the stablecoin industry, with related regulations like the GENIUS Act aimed at reducing risks.

The Economist pointed out that Crypto Assets have transformed from being "objects of ridicule" to a "widely accepted and even encouraged" asset class, but the big dump in Bitcoin prices indicates that the industry is rapidly declining. "The lack of new bullish narratives to support further rises in the price of a speculative asset—one that generates no income and relies entirely on future capital gain expectations—poses a significant challenge." The article also noted that the increasingly close ties between Crypto Assets and the TradFi sector could trigger a broader economic recession—if stablecoins face dumping, it could shake the bond market or lead to a fall in tech stocks.

Jin10 Data, November 10th — BlueBay Asset Management's Chief Investment Officer Mark Dowding pointed out in a research report that the structural demand for bond duration has weakened globally, which could lead to persistent high term premiums. He stated that fixed income investors are currently more focused on obtaining substantial returns through spreads in areas such as credit bonds. "Therefore, we believe that the term premium will remain high, which will incentivize and attract investors to extend their duration risk exposure." The term premium refers to the additional yield investors require to hold long-term bonds compared to short-term bonds.
