    US Likely Won't Purchase Bitcoin, But Arthur Hayes Isn't Worried

    Entrepreneur and former BitMEX CEO Arthur Hayes fears Bitcoin will suffer a "vicious sell-off" around the time Donald Trump takes office. In a characteristically lengthy blog post (which followed a 300-word introduction about yoga) the trader warned that crypto investors have unrealistically high expectations for what the president can achieve. While Trump has promised to make America "the crypto capital of the world" and establish a strategic Bitcoin reserve, Hayes says his administration will...

    Bitcoin Price Will 'Rise Stupendously' as Middle East Conflict Intensifies, Says Arthur Hayes

    BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes on Wednesday predicted a sharp rise in Bitcoin (BTC) as geopolitical conflicts escalate, driving inflation and increased government spending. In a blog post, Hayes argued that the U.S. government’s financial response to conflicts in the Middle East would spur money printing and fuel the next bull run for the Bitcoin price. “We know that war is inflationary. We understand that the U.S. government must borrow money to sell bombs to Israel,” Hayes wrote. “We know that...

    Bitcoin Billionaire Arthur Hayes Rates His Market Prediction Accuracy as 'Pretty Shit'

    Entrepreneur and former BitMEX CEO Arthur Hayes on Thursday disclosed a 25% success rate in his market predictions, rating himself as only getting 2 out of 8 calls correct over the past year. But the kicker, he wrote in his new essay, is that he’s remained profitable by leveraging macroeconomic trends in the long term. "So the Batting Average = .250. That's pretty shit to the common man," Hayes admitted in a blog, using a baseball analogy to describe his prediction accuracy. The crypto expert's...

    Bitcoin Could ‘Slowly Leak’ Toward $50,000 Before Its Next Surge: Arthur Hayes

    Bitcoin is still due for more sideways turbulence—and potentially some more bleeding—before shooting to the sky later this month, according to BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes. In his latest piece, the famous crypto essayist and macro-analyst admitted that his previous prediction that Bitcoin’s bull market would “begin anew” in September was incorrect, but that his bearishness remains “temporary.” “I have changed my mind, but it doesn’t affect my positioning at all.

Comprising 10,000 NFT-like assets, the batch of inflated profile pictures (PFP) stem from a collaboration with Oyl Wallet.

    Arthur Hayes: Buy the Bitcoin Dip After Bank of Japan ‘Caved’

    With the Bank of Japan (BOJ) already backpedaling its world-shaking rate hike last week, BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes says it is time to ‘buy the fucking dip.’ “Just so I'm clear. BTFD! Because the BOJ caved,” Hayes tweeted on Wednesday. The day prior, BOJ Deputy Governor Shinichi Uchida told business leaders that the central bank would avoid raising interest rates amid financial market instability. The central banker’s words immediately injected confidence back into the Japanese stock market,...

    Bitcoin Is a Superior Safe-Haven in Current 'Inflationary Era', Says Arthur Hayes

    Bitcoin billionaire and BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes explained the historical economic cycles and their implications for the current market environment in his latest blog post, arguing that the present economic landscape is characterized by a local cycle of inflation. That makes Bitcoin a superior safe-haven asset compared to gold due to its independence from national control. He separates economic cycles into local and global periods. In a local period, he wrote, authorities often resort to f...

    It's Time To Go Long On Bitcoin and Shitcoins: Arthur Hayes

    Recent policy moves from global central banks suggest that the time has come to ape into Bitcoin and high-conviction shitcoins, according to BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes. Earlier this week, both the Bank of Canada and the European Central Bank became the first G7 countries to lower their benchmark interest rates, which neither region has done in several years. According to Hayes, those pivotal moves will “catapult crypto out of the northern hemispheric summer doldrums.” “The trend is clear. Ce...

Hayes argued in an essay published on Monday that the dollar-yen exchange rate is “the most important global economic variable” right now, due to its potential to influence central bankers into ballooning the global money supply.

    Bitcoin Billionaire Arthur Hayes Predicts Market Bottom Is In, 'Slow Grind Higher'

    When the Bitcoin price tanks, traders tend to take cover and look for signs that the market has reached bottom and will reverse its trajectory. To that end, Bitcoin billionaire and former BitMEX CEO Arthur Hayes has some cautious optimism to share. "While I don’t expect crypto to fully realize the recent U.S. monetary announcements’ inflationary nature immediately," he wrote in a blog post, "I expect prices to bottom, chop, and begin a slow grind higher." In other words, he thinks that the worst...

    Bitcoin Billionaire Arthur Hayes Is Bearish on the Halving—Here's Why

    Bitcoin billionaire Arthur Hayes expects risky assets, like crypto, will have a tough time until May. That means the market could be in for prices slumping, rather than soaring, around the BTC halving. "The narrative of the halving being positive for crypto prices is well entrenched. When most market participants agree on a certain outcome, the opposite usually occurs," the BitMEX co-founder and former CEO wrote in his latest essay. "That is why I believe Bitcoin and crypto prices in general wil...

In a lengthy blog post, Hayes claimed that, “the treatment of CZ and Binance is absurd,” arguing that it “highlights the arbitrary nature of punishment at the hands of the state.” The $4.3 billion fine levied against the exchange was, Hayes said, disproportionately harsh compared to the treatment of “Too Big to Fail bank CEOs”...

    Bitcoin Wins While Fed Prints More 'Fiat Toilet Paper', Says Arthur Hayes

    BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes believes the Federal Reserve will lose its quest to beat inflation, ultimately benefiting “risk assets of finite supply,” such as Bitcoin. In a blog post published on Wednesday, the essayist argued that the Fed is sucking money from one area of the economy while injecting money into another. As long as the Fed’s strategy to combat inflation remains “quixotic,” assets like Bitcoin will likely rise in the long run. “Bitcoin has a finite supply, and therefore as the d...

In an essay published on Thursday, Hayes outlined why Bitcoin will be “chosen by AIs” as the most logical money with which to calculate their economic decisions, and the best payment rail with which to carry them out. For starters, AI will necessarily require a payment system that is “available at all times, digital, and completely...

    Decentralization may be core to crypto’s DNA, but the same cannot be said about people’s preferences when engaging with digital assets, said Arthur Hayes. The distribution of decision-making and control is an essential component of Satoshi Nakamoto’s vision for Bitcoin in 2008, well before the dawn of the digital assets industry. But Hayes, the former CEO of cryptocurrency exchange BitMEX, suggested this central tenet isn’t important to the masses. “At the end of the day, the average person d...
