Impact of Rising Bond Yields on the Cryptocurrency Market

The cryptocurrency market faces challenges from rising global bond yields. Analyst James Van Straten assesses the impact of this macroeconomic trend on the market.

Rise in Bond Yields

In recent months, government bond yields have been rising, creating a challenging macroeconomic environment for risky assets such as cryptocurrencies. The US 10-year Treasury yield, often considered a global benchmark, climbed to 4.70% as of today, marking an increase of over 100 basis points since the Fed's first rate cut in September. In the UK, the 30-year Gilt yield reached 5.35%, its highest level since 1998, a 105 basis point jump since the Fed's policy change. Similar increases in bond yields have been noted in Germany, Italy, and Japan, where Japan's 10-year government bond yield rose to 1.18%, the highest level in nearly 15 years.

Impact on Cryptocurrencies

Despite rising bond yields, cryptocurrencies continued to rally, reaching record or multi-year highs in December before calming down. Bitcoin, for example, is down more than 10% from its all-time high of $108,000 just three weeks ago, with other major cryptocurrencies seeing even steeper declines.

China Exception

Notably, China stands out in this global trend. According to The Kobeissi Letter, bond yields in China have sharply fallen amid growing deflationary concerns, with the country experiencing its longest deflationary period since 1999, contrasting sharply with the inflation-driven yield increases observed elsewhere.

The rise in bond yields has a significant impact on the cryptocurrency market, presenting macroeconomic challenges. While most countries face inflation and rising yields, China is in a contrasting position, highlighting its uniqueness in the global trend.
