In a stunning move, BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes dumped $13 million in crypto, including 2,373 $ETH ($8.32M), 7.76M $ENA ($4.62M), and 38.86B PEPE ($414,700), shifting 80% of his $27.9M portfolio to USDC. The six-hour sell-off, tracked by Arkham Intelligence, signals Hayes’ bearish bet as U.S. tariffs and a weak jobs report rattle markets. His X post hinted at Bitcoin testing $100k and Ethereum $3k, citing tariffs and slowing global growth.
With the CoinDesk 20 index down 7.5%, Bitcoin at $113,500 (-3.9%), and Ethereum at $3,500 (-6.5%), Hayes’ exit—following a recent $1.03M ENA buy—has sparked panic. Yet, his prior $250k Bitcoin and $10k Ethereum predictions suggest this may be a tactical retreat. As tariffs bite and tensions rise, the crypto world watches Hayes’ next move.
