Arthur Hayes Predicts Bitcoin Rally Post-U.S. Shutdown
Arthur Hayes foresees Bitcoin surge following U.S. government shutdown end, citing restored liquidity.

- Arthur Hayes links Bitcoin recovery to U.S. fiscal decisions.
- Liquid market rebound expected after government reopens.
- Macro liquidity shifts significantly impact crypto valuations.
Arthur Hayes, co-founder of BitMEX, suggests a potential Bitcoin rally triggered by the end of the U.S. government shutdown, due to expected liquidity restoration.
This shift could signal a recovery for Bitcoin, as liquidity dynamics outweigh sentiment, impacting BTC and ZEC significantly.
Arthur Hayes predicts a Bitcoin rally, citing the end of the U.S. government shutdown as a pivotal moment. He links the potential surge to enhanced liquidity once fiscal restraints lift.
Hayes, a recognized macro analyst, highlights that when the shutdown ends, liquidity increases due to Treasury actions. This change is expected to drive Bitcoin and, to some extent, Zcash upwards.
The temporary liquidity squeeze has impacted cryptocurrency markets, leading to large Bitcoin sales. With restored fiscal operations, a shift in market sentiment is likely, as capital re-enters risk assets.
Market experts suggest that financial implications of restored liquidity could result in a Bitcoin price rebound to levels potentially between $200,000 and $250,000.
Observed correlations indicate that macroeconomic actions like Treasury disbursements can heavily influence crypto markets. Small fluctuations in liquidity reshape the crypto landscape as institutional investors react swiftly.

Historical precedent shows Bitcoin prices rally during Federal Reserve liquidity expansions. Insights highlight how strategic liquidity injections may mirror past trends that fueled significant market upticks.
“The next chapter for Bitcoin may start when the Fed begins what he calls ‘stealth quantitative easing,’ a quiet return of liquidity disguised as cautious policy. For now, markets are feeling the strain from a liquidity squeeze tied to the ongoing US government shutdown.” — Arthur Hayes, CIO, Maelstrom
