Bitcoin Price Rally to $110K Coming, Says Arthur Hayes
Former BitMEX CEO Arthur Hayes has confidently forecasted that Bitcoin will climb to $110,000 before revisiting its $76,500 level. Hayes attributed his bullish stand on BTC to the upcoming pivot in the Fed policy, suggesting an upcoming move from quantitative tightening (QT) to quantitative easing (QE) moving ahead.
Furthermore, Hayes downplayed the impact of Trump’s tariffs, while referring to it as “transitory inflation” as noted by Fed Chair Jerome Powell. Last week, the former BitMEX CEO also stated the chances of a Bitcoin bottom formation at $77,000 while eyeing an upward trajectory from here onwards.
