In a recent essay titled \u201cBoom Times … Delayed,\u201d Arthur Hayes, co-founder and former CEO of BitMEX, delves into why impending Federal Reserve rate cuts may not initially rejuvenate the crypto markets as many investors hope. Published on Substack<\/a>, Hayes presents a detailed analysis interwoven with his perspective on broader economic policies and their implications on asset prices, including Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies.<\/p>\n

A New Paradigm<\/h2>\n

Hayes starts by challenging the typical investor crypto reflex to \u201cbuy the fucking dip\u201d (BTFD) in response to rate cuts\u2014a behavior ingrained from past experiences during periods of subdued inflation in the US. He recalls times when the US Federal Reserve aggressively counteracted deflation threats with massive liquidity injections, benefiting asset holders significantly. However, Hayes argues that the current economic climate, shaped heavily by post-COVID fiscal policies and resulting inflation, alters the effectiveness of such monetary interventions.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe effects of global fiscal policies to fight the COVID pandemic ended an era of deflation and ushered in an era of inflation<\/a>,\u201d Hayes states, emphasizing the delayed recognition of these inflationary impacts by central banks, which led to reactionary rather than preventative measures.<\/p>\n

Focusing on the US Treasury market, Hayes points out its pivotal role due to the dollar’s status as the global reserve currency. He notes that even with the Fed’s aggressive rate hikes, the bond market has shown a belief in the central bank\u2019s commitment to controlling inflation, as evidenced by the containment of the 10-year US Treasury yield below 4% during significant inflationary periods.<\/p>\n

However, a turning point came during the Federal Reserve\u2019s August meeting at Jackson Hole<\/a>, where Chair Jerome Powell hinted at a rate cut, introducing uncertainty into the markets. Hayes critiques the continued high government spending, which he views as a political strategy rather than fiscal prudence, influencing inflation and consequently the Fed’s policy decisions.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe primary driver of inflation that the Fed sought to quell, government spending, was left unchecked, leading the market to do the Fed\u2019s job for it,\u201d Hayes explains, referencing the swift rise in the 10-year Treasury yield following Powell\u2019s announcement. This reaction underscores his argument that while the Fed may cut rates, the bond market will continue to react dynamically to underlying economic factors.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin And Crypto Are Short-Term Bearish<\/h2>\n

Hayes points out Bitcoin\u2019s extreme sensitivity to dollar liquidity conditions. \u201cI believe Bitcoin is the most sensitive instrument that tracks dollar fiat liquidity conditions. As soon as the RRP started rising to the tune of ~$120bn, Bitcoin swooned. A rising RRP sterilizes money as it sits inert on the Fed\u2019s balance sheet, unable to be re-leveraged within the global financial system,\u201d Hayes notes.<\/p>\n

He suggests a direct correlation between Federal Reserve policies, dollar liquidity conditions, and the Bitcoin price. He further predicts that if the Fed doesn\u2019t cut rates<\/a> before their September meeting, the rising balances in the Fed’s Reverse Repo Program (RRP) could see the Bitcoin price either stabilize or potentially decline further towards $50,000.<\/p>\n

\u201cAssuming the Fed doesn\u2019t cut rates before the September meeting, I expect T-bill yields to stay firmly below those of the RRP. As such, RRP balances should continue to rise, and Bitcoin, at best, will chop around these levels and, at worst, slowly leak lower towards $50,000. Let\u2019s see how the cookie crumbles. My shift in opinion keeps my hand hovering over the Buy button. I am not selling crypto because I am short-term bearish,\u201d Hayes explains.<\/p>\n

Despite this, Hayes remains optimistic about the long-term prospects of Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies, particularly in response to policy shifts that might stimulate liquidity. Hayes speculates that US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen<\/a> will stimulate financial markets ahead of the US presidential election.<\/p>\n

He states, “Obviously, Bad Gurl Yellen will only stop once she has done everything possible to ensure Kamala Harris is elected as the US President.” Hayes predicts that Yellen might deplete the Treasury General Account (TGA) to prompt a favorable market reaction and instruct Federal Reserve chair Jerome Powell to cease quantitative tightening (QT) and restart quantitative easing<\/a> (QE).<\/p>\n

\u201cAll these monetary machinations are positive for risk assets, especially Bitcoin. The magnitude of the money supply injections must be large enough to counteract the rising RRP balance, assuming the Fed continues cutting rates. If this scenario occurs, I expect intervention to begin in late September. Between now and then, Bitcoin will, at best, continue to chop, and altcoins could dive deeper into the gutter,\u201d Hayes predicts.<\/p>\n

He concludes his analysis noting a shift in his expectations for a bull market. Originally anticipating a resurgence in September, he now foresees a more turbulent period for Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies but remains steadfast in his long-term strategy. \u201cI\u2019m still long as fuck in an unlevered fashion. The only additions to my portfolio will be increasing position sizes in solid shitcoin projects at deeper and deeper discounts to my perception of fair value,\u201d he declares.<\/p>\n

At press time, BTC traded at $56,615.<\/p>\n

Through his extensive work with wncen.com and Bitcoinist.com, Jake has become a trusted voice in the crypto community, guiding newcomers and seasoned enthusiasts alike towards a deeper understanding of this dynamic field. His mission is simple yet profound: to demystify Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies and make them accessible to everyone. With a professional career in the Bitcoin and crypto scene that began right after graduating with a degree in Information Systems in 2017, Jake has immersed himself in the industry. Jake joined the NewsBTC Group in late 2022. His educational background provides him with the technical prowess and analytical skills necessary to dissect complex topics and present them in an understandable format. Whether you are a casual reader curious about Bitcoin or an investor seeking to navigate the latest market trends, Jake\u2019s insights offer valuable perspectives that bridge the gap between complex technology and everyday usage. Jake is not just a reporter on technological trends; he is a firm believer in the transformative potential of Bitcoin over traditional fiat currencies. To him, the current financial system is on the brink of chaos, propelled by unchecked government actions and flawed Keynesian economic policies. Drawing from the principles of the Austrian school of economics, Jake views Bitcoin not merely as a digital asset but as a crucial step towards rectifying a failing monetary system. His libertarian views reinforce his stance that just as the church was separated from the state, so too should money be freed from governmental control. For Jake, Bitcoin represents more than just an investment; it's a peaceful revolution. He envisions a future where Bitcoin fosters a sustainable and responsible financial framework for generations to come. His advocacy is not about opposition but about evolution, about laying the groundwork for a system that prioritizes transparency and equity over secrecy and inequality. As a journalist, Jake\u2019s articles are crafted with the precision of a scholar and the passion of a true believer. He provides not only news but also thoughtful analysis that connects the dots between daily developments and larger economic theories. His work is a beacon for those lost in the technical jargon often associated with crypto discussions, illuminating the practical implications and benefits of these technologies. In summary, Jake Simmons is not just reporting on a revolution; he wants to be part of it, fully committed to enhancing public understanding and adoption of Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies. His work is more than just a collection of articles; it\u2019s a resource, a guide, and a companion for anyone ready to explore the potential of this digital frontier. Whether you are taking your first steps into crypto or are a veteran looking to stay on top of the latest trends, Jake\u2019s insights provide clarity and foresight in an often unpredictable industry.
