BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes is highlighting one catalyst that could trigger Bitcoin (BTC) to explode to an eight-figure price within a few years.
In an interview on the Wealthion YouTube channel, Hayes says monetary policy easing in the US could be a massively bullish catalyst for Bitcoin starting next year.
[adinserter block="1"]“I think that [US President Donald] Trump and [US Treasury Secretary Scott] Bessent are just setting up such a perfect situation for how money is going to be printed post-2026 in May.
And I just listened to a CNBC interview with [chief market strategist for Wall Street firm Jefferies David] Zervos, one of the Fed chair hopefuls. If that guy gets in, Bitcoin will be at like $15 million because he’s just going to do yield curve control, printing money, immediate 300 basis point [rate] cuts, all sorts of things.
So, I think, Trump and Bessent have laid out exactly what they want to do. Run it hot, inflationary, all these sorts of things. [Current Fed Chair Jerome] Powell is the only thing standing in their way. And you know, come hell or high water, Trump will get what he wants.”
According to the BitMex co-founder, Bitcoin still possesses more upside potential despite the crypto king currently trading at over $100,000.
“And Bitcoin has been this shining light which has been the best performing asset in human history since it launched in 2009. And so I think that this has been a great ride. And obviously, it’s still early for people to get involved in this industry… just because you’re coming in at 2025 and Bitcoin’s at $120,000 or whatever it is that you’ve missed the boat. We still have a long way to go.”
