Bitcoin market growth depends more on liquidity than regulation, according to Arthur Hayes, who argued that the market’s expansion hinges on capital inflows.
Cointelegraph, a crypto-focused media outlet, reported on May 5 that the BitMEX co-founder made the comment on X, formerly known as Twitter.
“Bitcoin doesn’t need regulation. It needs liquidity,” Hayes wrote.
The remark comes as debate over crypto regulation intensifies and underscores the question of what is fundamentally driving the market’s growth.
In the market, expanding liquidity is viewed as a key factor because it is closely tied to price gains. That suggests central bank policy and global capital flows could have a bigger influence on Bitcoin prices.
