The post Japanese Government Bonds Are CRASHING, How the Crypto Market Will React? appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News

Japan’s 30-year government bond yield jumped sharply by 30 basis points in a single session, reaching a record high of 3.90% for the first time in history. However, the sudden move has raised serious concerns about financial stability, leaving many investors asking what this could mean for Bitcoin and the broader crypto market.

Japan Government Bond Yields Hit Record Highs

According to the latest market data, Japanese government bond yields surged sharply across multiple maturities. The 30-year bond yield jumped by 30 basis points in a single session, reaching 3.90%, the highest level in Japan’s history. 

At the same time, the 40-year bond yield climbed 28 basis points to 4.22%, also a record high. Even the short-term bonds, such as the 10-year yield, rose to 2.37%, a level not seen since the 1990s.

As demand fell, yields rose quickly, indicating a growing fear among investors.

Weak Bond Demand Losing Investor Confidence

Concerns have grown after new political promises of tax cuts ahead of Japan’s February elections. Investors fear lower tax revenue could force the government to take on more debt, adding pressure to a system already under strain. 

Japan already carries one of the highest debt levels globally, with government debt exceeding 250% of GDP, and rising yields increase the cost of borrowing and weaken confidence further.

What This Means for Bitcoin and Crypto

This type of financial stress creates massive volatility. When markets panic, investors often sell risk assets, including crypto, to raise cash. This may lead to sudden price drops in Bitcoin and altcoins. 

However, we already saw this last year when Japan raised the interest rate, cryptocurrency fell sharply, while bitcoin fell to near $74K. 

This is why gold and silver are now hitting new all-time high prices, and Bitcoin often follows after the initial shock.

FAQs

Why do rising government bond yields often spook cryptocurrency markets?

Higher yields increase the opportunity cost of holding risk assets like crypto. Investors may sell Bitcoin and altcoins to park funds in safer, interest-bearing assets.

What could be the broader economic impact of Japan’s record-high bond yields?

Rising yields raise borrowing costs for businesses and the government, potentially slowing investment, weakening fiscal stability, and affecting global financial sentiment.

What might happen next if investor confidence continues to fall?

Further declines in demand could push yields higher, intensifying market stress and triggering more sell-offs in risk assets, including equities and cryptocurrencies.

The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For

The post The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Visions of future technology are often prescient about the broad strokes while flubbing the details. The tablets in “2001: A Space Odyssey” do indeed look like iPads, but you never see the astronauts paying for subscriptions or wasting hours on Candy Crush.  Channel factories are one vision that arose early in the history of the Lightning Network to address some challenges that Lightning has faced from the beginning. Despite having grown to become Bitcoin’s most successful layer-2 scaling solution, with instant and low-fee payments, Lightning’s scale is limited by its reliance on payment channels. Although Lightning shifts most transactions off-chain, each payment channel still requires an on-chain transaction to open and (usually) another to close. As adoption grows, pressure on the blockchain grows with it. The need for a more scalable approach to managing channels is clear. Channel factories were supposed to meet this need, but where are they? In 2025, subnetworks are emerging that revive the impetus of channel factories with some new details that vastly increase their potential. They are natively interoperable with Lightning and achieve greater scale by allowing a group of participants to open a shared multisig UTXO and create multiple bilateral channels, which reduces the number of on-chain transactions and improves capital efficiency. Achieving greater scale by reducing complexity, Ark and Spark perform the same function as traditional channel factories with new designs and additional capabilities based on shared UTXOs.  Channel Factories 101 Channel factories have been around since the inception of Lightning. A factory is a multiparty contract where multiple users (not just two, as in a Dryja-Poon channel) cooperatively lock funds in a single multisig UTXO. They can open, close and update channels off-chain without updating the blockchain for each operation. Only when participants leave or the factory dissolves is an on-chain transaction…
