The co-founder of BitMEX predicts the rise of Bitcoin amid increasing dollar liquidity
BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes is bullish on Bitcoin (BTC). Hayes shared his thoughts on X alongside a chart showing net reverse repurchase agreement (RRP) and Treasury Total Account (TGA) balance changes. Hayes referred to US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen as “Bad Gurl Yellen”.
On the X-Post, Hayes encouraged Bitcoin enthusiasts to stay focused, which saw a sharp rise in the US dollar. He suggested that BTC would likely reflect a rise in the dollar's currency, causing prices to rise.
The accompanying chart shows the net differences in RRP and TGA balances, which can be seen between higher dollar liquidity and higher BTC prices.

Meanwhile, crypto analyst dharmafi shared more specific figures on X. The post emphasized a balance sheet of $65 billion RRP and TGA of $35 billion, with a significant net liquidity increase of $106 billion as of November 21.
As noted by Hayes, increased liquidity indicates dynamic changes in financial markets. Investors and Bitcoin enthusiasts looking at liquidity injections can speculate on the possible effects on the cryptocurrency market.
While the BitMEX co-founder highlighted the link between dollar liquidity and Bitcoin's value, Dharmafi's data reinforces the impact of increased liquidity. As of Nov. 21, the $106 billion increase in net liquidity has raised questions about its impact on various asset classes, including cryptocurrencies.
