Arthur Hayes Lowers Bitcoin 1-Year Target to ~$125,000 From $500,000
Arthur Hayes said he has cut his Bitcoin price target from $500,000 to about $125,000 for a one-year horizon. He argued his framework is unchanged—BTC follows global fiat liquidity—but the speed of money creation has not matched what the earlier target would require. Hayes also described Bitcoin's Q1 2026 drop alongside AI/SaaS stocks as a liquidity warning tied to AI-driven deflation pressures.
