According to Omkar Godbole (@godbole17), the USDJPY downtrend has officially ended as of May 12, 2025 (source: Twitter). This reversal suggests renewed strength in the US dollar against the Japanese yen, which can impact risk sentiment across global markets. For cryptocurrency traders, a stronger USD often leads to increased volatility in Bitcoin and altcoin prices due to shifts in forex-driven capital flows (source: Cointelegraph). Traders should monitor USDJPY movements closely, as forex shifts can directly influence crypto liquidity and trading opportunities.
