Bitcoin (BTC) Prepares for Japanese Intervention! “First a Sharp Drop, Then a Big Rally!”

Bitcoin (BTC) started the new week lower, besieged by numerous negative factors coming from the US, ahead of the first FED decision of 2026.

As if the negative headwinds from the US weren’t enough, now there are signs of a downturn coming from Japan.

Accordingly, as the possibility of Japan intervening in foreign exchange markets to support its currency, the Yen (JPY), is being discussed, concerns are growing that Bitcoin may face further declines.

Historical data shows that interventions in the Yen can cause Bitcoin to fall before it makes a sharp recovery.

Yen intervention is when Japanese authorities intervene in the foreign exchange market to influence the currency. This intervention most commonly involves selling dollars and buying yen, aiming to slow down the rapid depreciation of the yen.

Analysts point out that this event has happened twice before in history, noting that during the previous two yen interventions, Bitcoin fell by approximately 30% from its peaks before bottoming out, but then gained more than 100% in value.

Crypto analyst Mikybull Crypto stated that the same scenario could repeat itself, saying, “The same scenario is about to happen again. Bitcoin could fall first, then recover.”

Some predictions suggest that Bitcoin could fall to the $65,000-$70,000 range.
