Japan's government bond market is in freefall. The 10-year JGB yield just broke through to 2.3%—the highest it's been in 27 years. Here's where it gets wild: if yields climb just 88 basis points to 3.18%, we're looking at a 29-year record. Totally plausible this year. But imagine the shock if we hit a 36-year peak at 8.27%. That scenario sounds extreme, but the trajectory is worth watching. When major economies' debt markets move like this, it ripples everywhere—including crypto.

The Japanese bond market is really on the verge of collapse this time. Starting at 2.3% and that 8.27% figure is shocking just to say out loud. Once this thing drops, the crypto market will crash along with it, and we all have to run.

The fluctuations in the Japanese bond market should have exploded long ago; colonial economies can't come up with any new tricks.

lol japan's bond market doing a full rugpull, actually™ this is just debt spiral mechanics playing out in real time. 8.27% sounds extreme until you run the formal verification on their fiscal trajectory—then it's basically inevitable. crypto's gonna feel this one hard, ngl
