Arthur Hayes, founder of BitMEX, addressed concerns about Bitcoin's recent performance on the Market Disruptors podcast. Hayes emphasized that Bitcoin remains a highly volatile asset and has not exhibited any unusual behavior. He criticized the notion that a 50% price drop could be attributed to manipulation by market makers or any single institution, calling such claims absurd. Hayes suggested that these manipulation theories are often excuses used by traders who have lost money on what they expected to be a guaranteed profit asset.
