According to The Kobeissi Letter, there is a notable disconnect in global bond markets: Japan's policy rate is 0.50% with a debt-to-GDP ratio exceeding 250%, while Germany maintains a 2.25% rate and a much lower debt-to-GDP ratio of 62%. Despite these differences, 30-year government bond yields do not reflect the higher risk traditionally associated with Japan's debt level (source: @KobeissiLetter, May 25, 2025). For crypto traders, this situation signals persistent market distortions due to central bank interventions, which may impact global liquidity flows and risk appetite in digital assets. Close monitoring of bond yield movements in major economies is recommended, as shifts could trigger volatility in both traditional and crypto markets.

According to Michaël van de Poppe, Bitcoin is experiencing a strong bullish divergence with an additional confirmation after testing the $80,000 mark and bouncing upwards. This suggests a potential continuation towards $85,000 or more in the upcoming week, contingent on either a deal being made or intervention by a central bank.
