Hayes: Cheap oil and rising liquidity to push bitcoin up

12:35 - 9.01.2026


January 9, Fineko/abc.az. BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes said that low oil prices in the U.S. and expansion of dollar liquidity will create conditions for the growth of bitcoin.

ABC.AZ informs that in his opinion, the American authorities are interested in cheap fuel, as it restrains inflation and increases political stability, allowing for continued monetary emission.

Hayes believes that as long as oil remains cheap and the stock market is growing, the influx of liquidity will continue, which will support not only bitcoin, but also other crypto assets. Previously, he predicted the growth of the first cryptocurrency to $500,000 in 2026.
