U.S. 30-Year Treasury Yield Hits 24-Year High at 5.57%
The yield rose 7 basis points on Sept. 28, putting long-term borrowing costs and liquidity conditions in focus for crypto and other risk assets.

The 30-year U.S. Treasury yield rose 7 basis points to 5.57% on Sept. 28, reaching its highest level since 2002 and putting long-term borrowing costs in focus for crypto and other risk assets.
The move marks a fresh high for the benchmark yield, which tracks the return investors demand to hold U.S. government debt for three decades. A higher yield generally signals more expensive long-term financing across markets.
For crypto traders, the rate milestone adds to the macro backdrop shaping liquidity and appetite for risk. Tighter liquidity can affect how capital moves across speculative assets, including digital currencies, though the supplied data does not establish a direct market reaction.
The 30-year yield was at 5.57% after its intraday rise on Sept. 28. The level is now the highest recorded since 2002.
