What is Arthur Hayes buying for 2025? We recorded this on the U.S election day so we don’t know who won at the time of recording. Regardless, Arthur says the election doesn’t matter. To him, the outcome is the same no matter who’s in power, they will print money. We talk about the Chinese property bubble and the coming money cannon which Arthur thinks will be bigger than the COVID stimulus. The Fed’s next move, why the treasury is sucking all the oxygen out of the room. We get into his crypto portfolio, what he’s holding and why. ------ 📣 GET YOUR ALL ACCESS PASS TO THE PODCAST https://bankless.cc/podshownotes   ------ BANKLESS SPONSOR TOOLS: 🐙KRAKEN | MOST-TRUSTED CRYPTO EXCHANGE https://k.xyz/bankless-pod-q2    ⁠ 🦄UNISWAP | BROWSER EXTENSION https://bankless.cc/uniswap  ⚖️ ARBITRUM | SCALING ETHEREUM ⁠https://bankless.cc/Arbitrum  🛞MANTLE | MODULAR LAYER 2 NETWORK https://bankless.cc/Mantle    🤖 dYdX | UNLIMITED LAUNCHING SOON https://bankless.cc/dYdXUnlimited   🐧 CARTESI | LINUX-POWERED ROLLUPS https://bankless.cc/CartesiSimple  ------ ✨ Mint the episode on Zora ✨ https://zora.co/collect/zora:0x0c294913a7596b427add7dcbd6d7bbfc7338d53f/92?referrer=0x077Fe9e96Aa9b20Bd36F1C6290f54F8717C5674E  ------ TIMESTAMPS 0:00 Intro 5:11 Does the Election Matter? 13:44 Where are we in the Crypto Cycle? 17:23 Chinese Property Bubble 33:14 Isn’t Bitcoin Illegal in China? 37:45 Fed’s Next Move 45:16 Politics & The Money Printer 49:42 Arthur’s Crypto Portfolio 50:33 ETH as Money? 1:01:42 Is ETH Dead? 1:02:20 Ethena 1:03:46 Memecoins 1:05:42 AI x Crypto 1:09:10 War Scenario 1:18:48 Arthur’s Advice 1:20:28 Closing & Disclaimers ------ RESOURCES Arthur Hayes Blog https://cryptohayes.medium.com/   ------ Not financial or tax advice.
