Crypto surges despite major obstacles across cycles, Arthur Hayes notes
Crypto bull runs persist through crises

Arthur Hayes, co-founder and chief investment officer at Maelstrom, reflects on the recurring challenges faced at the start of each major crypto bull run.

He highlights obstacles including the block size wars in 2017, the onset of Covid in 2020, the FTX collapse and rising central bank policy rates in 2023, and anticipates AI encryption concerns ahead in 2026. Hayes suggests that, despite these cycles of uncertainty, market support through monetary expansion could continue to drive asset appreciation.

Hayes has been active in tracking crypto trading trends, including recent events. Earlier, he announced the start of a Flop Labs competition focused on NVDA perpetual price prediction. He also reported on the Technocore trading contest, which saw 452,000 participants with 8 percent in profit so far. These updates reflect his ongoing engagement with major trading competitions and market participation.
