Bitcoin may stay weak until Fed or banks grow their balance sheets, says Arthur Hayes.

Arthur Hayes, co-founder and CIO of Maelstrom, stated that Bitcoin's weakness is likely to continue until the Federal Reserve or commercial banks expand their balance sheets. He explained that liquidity in USD is recharging but Bitcoin will remain under pressure until this balance-sheet growth happens. Hayes highlighted that the Fed's purchase of Treasury securities adds reserves to banks, while commercial banks create deposits through lending or asset purchases. He did not specify which banks or the timeline for this growth, nor confirmed that balance-sheet expansion has started. This view reflects market expectations rather than policy or confirmed lending increases.
