TREE NEWS reports: Long-term government bond yields across major economies surged, with the US 10-year Treasury yield reaching about 5.2%, its highest since before the 2008 financial crisis. The UK 10-year gilt yield rose to roughly 5.38%, a 30-year high, while France’s 10-year yield climbed to about 4.68%. The bond selloff raises government borrowing costs and underscores risks from heavier sovereign debt burdens.
US 10-Year Treasury Yield Hits 5.2%, UK 30-Year High at 5.38%
This is a repricing of sovereign risk, not a growth story, and it lands hardest on governments carrying heavy debt loads. The move matters for crypto and RWA markets because higher risk-free rates raise the opportunity cost of holding yield-bearing tokens and other real-asset instruments, while also pressuring the collateral values that underpin tokenized Treasury products. Whether long-end yields stabilize or keep climbing is the open question — and whether digital-asset yields can still compete is the second.
