<p>After <a href="https://www.cointribune.com/arthur-hayes-predit-un-bitcoin-btc-a-1-million-de-dollars-dici-2030-et-la-chute-de-lue-et-des-etats-unis/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">predicting a $1 million Bitcoin earlier this month</a>, crypto expert Arthur Hayes has once again shared his thoughts. The future of Bitcoin and the US debt in a recent interview for the “<a href="https://www.whatbitcoindid.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">What Bitcoin Did</a>” podcast.

<p>This strategy involves waiting until the last moment before raising the limit. “<em>Usually what happens is they delay, delay, delay… Then you know, they get to the date… The market starts tanking</em>. <em>Then they get religion and [say] ‘Okay, yeah, sure, we’re just going to raise the debt ceiling,</em>” affirmed Arthur Hayes.</p>

<p>The entrepreneur also believes that politicians take advantage of the debt ceiling crisis. They use the situation to reach agreements that benefit them.</p>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote">
<p>The Republicans are probably going to get some concession on some particular piece of policy they think is going to be important in the next election from the Democrats and then they’re in the last minute they’re going to come to a deal and they’ll raise it by some token amount and then everybody’s happy again.</p>

<p>Arthur Hayes also shared an analysis of Bitcoin’s future (BTC). The crypto guru sees an increasingly favorable macroeconomic environment for a Bitcoin rally.</p>



<p>The issuance of new liquidity to absorb government debts, the raising of the debt limit, and the potential financial disruptions we might witness are all factors that favor a Bitcoin surge, according to Hayes.</p>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote">
<p>It’s gonna be interesting, the timing of that, because is that going to coincide with sort of like the fall harvest cycle. When we usually get financial disruption events, with the banking crisis then, you have the federal government issuing trillion of dollars of debt because they need to fund themselves? You’re basically putting this powder keg together of a situation that’s going to be exploding in Q3 and Q4 this year, and I think ultimately it will be good for Bitcoin.</p>
</blockquote>



<p>In summary, Arthur Hayes predicts a promising future for Bitcoin amid the US debt crisis. According to the expert, <a href="https://www.cointribune.com/analyse-technique-du-26-mai-le-bitcoin-btc-proche-dun-niveau-pertinent/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">the queen of cryptos could benefit from the current macroeconomic environment</a>.</p>
