BitMEX Exchange Co-Founder Arthur Hayes Critiques U.S. Government Bitcoin Reserve Proposal
Arthur Hayes, former CEO of BitMEX and a leading voice in cryptocurrency markets, has openly dismissed the idea of the U.S. government adding Bitcoin to its national reserves. The derivatives exchange pioneer—who established BitMEX as a dominant force in Leveraged trading—remains doubtful about institutional adoption at the sovereign level.
Hayes’ remarks follow increasing speculation about nation-state Bitcoin accumulation. His Wharton-educated insights hold significant influence in crypto circles, where he’s recognized for market-moving analysis and strategic investments in emerging projects.
