What this yield tells you
The 30-year bond is the longest US Treasury. Its yield reflects long-run inflation expectations and worries about growing federal debt: investors want extra pay for lending for three decades.
Long yields rising while short rates hold steady is called a bear steepening, a sign that markets are uneasy about deficits and inflation.
For crypto, Treasury yields are the price of money: a high risk-free yield makes assets that pay no interest, bitcoin included, less attractive. Sharp yield spikes often coincide with crypto sell-offs, and falling yields with money flowing back into risk.

Frequently asked questions
What is the 30-Year Treasury bond yield today?
5.63%, +2 bp on the day.
What are the record high and low?
High: 15.21% (October 26, 1981); low: 0.99% (March 9, 2020), data since 1977.
Why do yields rise when bond prices fall?
The coupon is fixed. If a bond sells below face value, the same coupon is a bigger percentage of what the buyer paid, which is a higher yield.
How do Treasury yields affect bitcoin?
Higher risk-free yields make money more expensive and reduce demand for risky assets that pay no interest, so sharp yield rises usually weigh on bitcoin and falling yields support it.
