Rising Japanese yields could spark reverse carry trade, drive XRP to $150
Remi links Japan’s 10Y yield jump to a reverse carry trade that could send XRP to $50–$150. He says the move could come before any U.S. “CLARITY Act” outcome.
In an X post, Remi points to the rising Japanese 10-year yield and says it may force the BOJ to hike rates. He claims yen borrowers at 0% would rush to unwind, sell assets, and repay, triggering a liquidity squeeze. He calls this the setup for a reverse carry trade that “saves the day” for XRP, with a path to $50–$150. He frames it as “price before law,” arguing XRP could hit $100 before the CLARITY Act.
He adds that Japanese banks are waiting on the CLARITY Act to use XRP “100%” domestically. He asks what comes first: an XRP price spike or the bill’s passage. He suggests the reverse carry could arrive first if an energy shock tied to the U.S.–Iran war pushes the BOJ to raise rates. He also cites U.S. policy timing as a swing factor. Source: X, Bitcoinist.
In a second X post, Remi says XRP could reach $1,000 if it rhymes with the 2017 bull run. He notes an over 40,000% surge that cycle and cites 76,000% gains “without FOMO, institutions, utility, ETFs, or supply shock.” If the same magnitude repeats, he argues, $1,000 is possible. He calls $1,000 “conservative” if FOMO, institutions, utility, XRP ETFs, and supply constraints appear. He advises staged profit-taking.
Context for investors:
- Rising Japan 10Y yields and potential BOJ hikes are the core macro trigger Remi cites source.
- Reverse carry unwind is the mechanism he claims could reprice XRP fast source.
- Policy catalysts include the U.S. CLARITY Act and Japanese bank adoption timing, per Remi.
At writing, XRP trades near $1.33, up over 2% in 24 hours CoinMarketCap. For cycle context, he references the 2017 run in Bitcoin.
