Arthur Hayes Links Bitcoin's Recent Decline to Dollar Liquidity Contraction BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes stated on X that U.S. dollar liquidity has decreased by approximately $300 billion in recent weeks. This reduction is primarily attributed to a $200 billion increase in the U.S. Treasury's general account (TGA). Hayes suggests the government may be accumulating cash reserves to fund expenditures in anticipation of a potential shutdown. In this context, Hayes noted that Bitcoin's decline is not surprising, as it appears to be synchronized with the contraction of dollar liquidity. The reduction in dollar liquidity, driven by increased government cash holdings, creates a less favorable environment for risk assets like Bitcoin. Investors may be reallocating capital as liquidity tightens. #crypto #blockchain #news #BTC #Bitcoin
