The missing step in the warning that Japan could trigger Bitcoin’s next selloff

Japan’s overseas profits can keep growing without the cash returning home. Bank of Japan Gov. Kazuo Ueda’s newly published International Monetary Fund lecture explains that distinction, complicating the case for treating Japan’s income surplus as an automatic source of yen buying and selling pressure on Bitcoin. Ueda delivered the lecture on November 6, 2026, and the BOJ published it November 7 . He described how substantial earnings from overseas affiliates stay invested abroad, sustaining Japan’s external income while adding to foreign direct investment. CryptoSlate’s earlier coverage of Japanese foreign-debt selling examined how a shift toward domestic bonds could affect Bitcoin’s financing backdrop. The new lecture explains why overseas income alone cannot establish that shift. For Bitcoin, the implications depend on what investors actually do with their money.
