🚀 Arthur Hayes Predicts Bitcoin Surge: $250K by Year-End and $1 Million by 2028
💰 Arthur Hayes, co-founder of Bitmex and chief investment officer of Maelstrom, has made bold predictions about Bitcoin's future during an interview at Token2049 in Dubai. Despite facing regulatory challenges in the past, Hayes has emerged as a strong advocate for digital assets and is now betting on Bitcoin's dominance in the crypto market.
📈 He predicts a significant surge in Bitcoin's price and dominance in the coming months, stating,
I think bitcoin dominance continues to go up. I think bitcoin in this next little run could go close to $200,000. And then altcoin season comes around and we’ll see some interesting things. And by the end of the year bitcoin price target is about $250,000.
Hayes attributes this potential rise to the current macroeconomic environment, particularly expanding U.S. fiscal deficits and liquidity injections through the Treasury.
➡️ Looking further ahead, Hayes envisions an even more staggering future for Bitcoin. He reiterates his prediction of $1 million by the end of 2028 amidst concerns over unsustainable U.S. government spending and monetary debasement. He states,
I think by the end of Trump’s presidency, the end of 2028 bitcoin will be about $1 million.
This prediction underscores his belief that Bitcoin will emerge as a global safe-haven asset.
🌟 While Hayes anticipates increased activity in altcoins later in the cycle, he emphasizes that Bitcoin will remain central to both Maelstrom's strategy and his personal investment outlook.
