Arthur Hayes, BitMEX co-founder and crypto analyst, has doubled down on his bullish Bitcoin forecast. Speaking at Token2049 in Dubai, he predicted BTC could hit $250,000 by the end of 2025 and potentially soar to $1 million by 2028, assuming a favorable political climate under a possible Trump return.
Currently holding steady above $100K, Bitcoin’s momentum—if sustained—could lead the next rally. Hayes suggests a breakout past $110K with strong volume might spark a new altcoin season, though this time only high-quality projects are likely to benefit.
Beyond crypto, Hayes is also betting on gold, holding 20% of his portfolio in it, and eyeing a price surge to $10,000–$20,000, driven by central bank demand.
Despite uncertainty and skepticism from investors, Hayes remains confident that crypto's future is bright—urging patience as macro and political factors evolve.
Here is a visual timeline of Hayes' price targets.
