The bitcoin price and wider crypto market, including ethereum and XRP, have rocketed higher over the ... [+] last few years amid unprecedented Federal Reserve money printing.
getty"Itâs just so ridiculous how much money is going to be printed over the next two to three years while the central banks try to save the government bond markets that I guess Iâm just so bullish on bitcoin, crypto, certain stocks [and] so bearish on fiat just because thereâs going to be umpteenth more trillions of dollars of it," Hayes, who cofounded crypto derivatives pioneer BitMex, told YouTuber Ran Neuner.
The Federal Reserve in the U.S. and central banks across Europe and Asia will, according to Hayes, be forced to issue increasing amounts of debt in coming years, boosting speculative, risk assets such as bitcoin, ethereum, XRP and other cryptocurrencies while at the same time weakening the U.S. dollar.
"We also saw some dovish shifts in Fed officialsâ stance on monetary policy this week as a handful of them suggested higher long-term yield will do the job for them," Yuya Hasegawa, a crypto market analyst with Tokyo-based Bitbank, wrote in an emailed note, adding "the macro environment is starting to shift in favor of [bitcoin].
Last week, analysts at the investment bank Jefferies warned the Fed will be forced to restart its money printerâpotentially collapsing the U.S. dollar and fueling a bitcoin price boom to rival gold.
Meanwhile, Hayes pointed to the commercialization of artificial intelligence (AI) this year as the potential catalyst for an overhaul of the economic and financial system, calling it the most transformative development of all time.

Forbes Digital Assets"The [bitcoin and crypto] bull market that weâre about to experienceâthat weâre on the cusp ofâand itâs a combination of the most amount of money ever printed in human history in a two to three year period and the commercialization of AI and how that relates to crypto as the most transformative technological development thatâs ever happened in human history," Hayes said.
Earlier this month, Hayes generated headlines when he predicted the bitcoin price could rocket to $1 million by 2026.
"There is going to be a major financial crisis, probably as bad or worse than the great depression, sometime near the end of the decade; before we get there, weâre gonna have, I think, the largest bull market in stocks, real estate, crypto, art, you name it, that weâve ever seen since World War 2," Hayes told YouTuber Tom Bilyeu.
