The money printer isn’t stopping, and Arthur Hayes says that means Bitcoin and DeFi are only just getting started. In this in-depth interview hosted by CoinFund’s Chris Perkins, the BitMEX Co-Founder and renowned macro thinker, shares why he’s fully invested in crypto, why Bitcoin is still the best asset in history, and how U.S. policy could drive a $25 trillion stablecoin boom. Hayes breaks down: - Powell vs. Trump: why politics, not economics, will dictate Fed policy. - How endless money printing will fuel Bitcoin’s next major surge. - Why stablecoins could become the ultimate U.S. weapon, and reshape global finance. - The coming trillion-dollar explosion in DeFi and his favorite projects now. - Ethereum vs. Solana: what it will take to win the Layer 1 battle. - The rise of digital asset corporations (DACs) and passive index flows. - Why U.S. derivatives markets may never catch up to offshore exchanges. If you want to understand the forces that will shape the next crypto bull run, this is a conversation you don’t want to miss. 💡Get our free investing report on silver here: https://wealthion.com/silver/ 💡Concerned about Markets?
