Arthur Hayes predicts Bitcoin could surge if central banks expand balance sheets again globally.
The U.S. dollar is weakening again, and investors are watching closely. As the Dollar Index drops to a 4-month low, fears of possible yen intervention are growing.
Historical data shows that a weaker dollar has always helped Bitcoin rise sharply, raising the question of whether this drop could spark the next Bitcoin rally.
Dollar Index Hit 4-Month Low as Yen Intervention Talk Grows
The U.S. Dollar Index (DXY) has fallen to around 96.8, its lowest level in nearly four months. This puts the dollar more than 15% below its 2022 high, making its recent performance the weakest seen since 2017.
However, experts say that the dollar’s fall became sharper after the U.S. Federal Reserve contacted major banks to check conditions in the Japanese yen market. Such checks are often seen as early signals of possible foreign exchange intervention.
Soon after this, the dollar dropped quickly against the yen, moving close to 154 yen per dollar.
Arthur Hayes Sees Big Bitcoin Upside
Bitmex co-founder Arthur Hayes remains strongly bullish if liquidity returns. He believes that if central banks resume balance sheet expansion, Bitcoin could climb to $200,000 by March 2026.
In a more aggressive view, he has suggested $500,000 is possible if global money flows surge.
Despite the growing speculation, Bitcoin is currently trading near $87,615, down 1% over the last 24 hours.
