According to BlockBeats, on February 6, Arthur Hayes published a blog post expressing his concerns over the Bitcoin strategic reserve policy. He criticized the government's approach to hoarding assets, stating that their decisions are driven by political rather than financial interests. Hayes warned that such policies could shift with political changes, potentially altering Bitcoin's trajectory.
Hayes also expressed skepticism about the forthcoming cryptocurrency legislation. He noted that those developing truly decentralized technologies and applications lack the financial resources to influence politics at this critical juncture. As a result, he fears that cryptocurrency regulation might become a reality, manifesting in a complex and prescriptive manner that only large, wealthy centralized companies can afford.
Despite these challenges, Hayes remains optimistic about Bitcoin's potential to retest the $70,000 to $75,000 range. He believes that only actions such as monetary expansion by the Federal Reserve, the U.S. Treasury, Japan, or the enactment of specific legislation allowing for permissionless cryptocurrency innovation can improve the current market conditions.
