BitMEX Co-Founder Arthur Hayes Predicts Ethereum Will Surge to $10K and ’Tear the Market a New Asshole’
Arthur Hayes, co-founder of BitMEX, has revised his Ethereum price prediction upward, forecasting a surge to $10,000 by year-end. This bullish outlook follows ETH's recent rally to a 2025 high of $3,844, though it remains 27% below its 2021 peak of $4,878.
Hayes attributes the anticipated growth to U.S. credit expansion and shifting institutional sentiment. "The coming ETH bull run is about to tear the market a new asshole," he declared, noting Ethereum's resurgence among Western institutional investors despite previous underperformance.
The renewed interest is evident in U.S. ETH ETFs, which saw $726 million inflows last Wednesday. Hayes' prediction doubles his earlier $5,000 forecast and WOULD represent more than twice Ethereum's all-time high.
