Arthur Hayes Predicts Bitcoin to $1 Million by 2028, Citing Trump’s Policies and Declining US Treasury Confidence

Arthur Hayes, co-founder of BitMEX, predicts that Bitcoin will reach $1 million by 2028, driven by changes in foreign asset ownership and a decline in confidence in US Treasury bonds. Hayes attributes this forecast to the impact of Donald Trump’s economic policies and rising global instability, which he believes will push investors away from US government debt towards Bitcoin. Hayes also mentioned the potential for capital controls in Western nations as a response to ‘nation-first’ monetary policies, suggesting that such measures could further drive investment into cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin. He emphasized that as long as the internet exists, individuals will be able to convert fiat currency into Bitcoin, bypassing traditional financial systems. Additionally, Hayes sees Bitcoin reaching $250,000 this year, while other notable figures like Tom Lee and Kevin O’Leary have projected even higher values, with Lee suggesting Bitcoin could hit $1.5 million and O’Leary anticipating an influx of trillions of dollars into the cryptocurrency.
