On March 31, 2025, Bitcoin was teetering on the edge at $83,000, having fallen about 24% from its peak of $109,000 more than two months ago. The market is like a giant seesaw, with the whispers of the abyss at one end and the allure of the starry sky at the other.
Today, we focus on two heavyweight wise men in the cryptocurrency circle: Quinn Thompson, the helmsman of Lekker Capital, predicts that Bitcoin will slowly lose value and drop to between $50,000 and $59,000; Arthur Hayes, the godfather of Maelstrom, is betting that it will ride the wave of quantitative easing (QE) and soar to $250,000 - this is the target he reaffirmed within the year in his latest article, although he has also jokingly mentioned an ultimate vision of $1 million. The logics of the two are like the black and white pieces on a chessboard, completely opposite yet fascinating.
Quinn Thompson: The "Cold - blooded Prophet" on Wall Street
Quinn Thompson is the founder of Lekker Capital, a "veteran" who has transitioned from traditional finance to the cryptocurrency field. He once managed billions of dollars on Wall Street and is known for his accurate macro insights. In 2024, when Bitcoin was still at a high level, his posts on X already predicted the market's decline and were regarded as "prophetic words". Thompson's style is calm and incisive, like a doctor holding a scalpel, skilled at dissecting the veins of the economy. His predictions often carry a hint of cold fatalism, as if he has already seen through the ups and downs of the market.
Thompson's prediction is like a slow - paced tragedy: Bitcoin will not collapse suddenly but will gradually decline like a patient with a chronic disease, eventually dropping to between $50,000 and $59,000. "This is not a lightning - fast fall, but a maddeningly slow torture," he said in an interview with CoinDesk. "Investors will keep asking 'Is it the bottom?' but can only suffer in the fog." His pessimism is based on the "four headwinds" of the Trump administration's policies, with a clear and pressing logic:
"Cliff - like Austerity" of Government Spending
The government efficiency department (D.O.G.E.) led by Elon Musk plans to cut $1 trillion in spending by the end of May, with a long - term goal of cutting $7 trillion. Thompson pointed out that government spending has been the pillar of the economy and employment in recent years. "This money flows into people's pockets and supports vacations and supermarket shopping. Now that this pillar is about to be removed, how can the economy not wobble?" he sneered. "Whether you like the Ministry of Education or not, those dollars are the real lifeblood."
"Tough Contraction" of the Labor Market
Trump's tough policy on illegal immigrants will compress the labor supply. In the past, the influx of immigrants depressed wages and boosted growth; now, with the strengthening of border closures and deportations, enterprises will face the pressure of rising wages, and some may even go bankrupt. "This is not a charity dinner, but a survival game," Thompson said with a hint of mockery in his tone. "With fewer workers, who will do the work?"
The "Suspense Drama" of Tariffs
Trump's tariff policy is like an ongoing suspense drama, with increases one day and cancellations the next. Thompson believes that this uncertainty is itself a poison. "Enterprises are like being suspended in mid - air, afraid to invest and hire, and the vitality of the economy is stifled." He described this as the perfect recipe for "chronic suffocation".
The "Indifferent Observation" of the Federal Reserve
Although the interest rate was cut by 100 basis points to 4.25% - 4.5% at the end of 2024, Bitcoin failed to break through $110,000, indicating that the easing efforts were limited. Thompson expects only sporadic interest rate cuts of 25 - 75 basis points in 2025, and they will be concentrated in the second half of the year. "The Federal Reserve is like a miser, holding on to inflation tightly." He mocked the White House: "Bessent's 'correcting the course' is to burst the asset bubble, and Bitcoin will bear the brunt."
Thompson compares this to "controlled burning": the government tries to clean up the "dead wood" of the economy, but if it gets out of control, it may burn everything to the ground. He warns that this "slow loss of blood" may last until the beginning of 2026 until political pressure forces Trump to change his course. As a risky asset, Bitcoin cannot escape the fate of being slowly cut.
Arthur Hayes: The "Monetary Alchemist" in the Cryptocurrency World
Arthur Hayes is a legendary figure in the cryptocurrency circle. He once founded BitMEX and made it a dominant force in derivative trading. After leaving BitMEX, he founded Maelstrom and transformed into a master of macro strategies, known for his bold predictions and pungent writing style. His articles are like black comedies, with both profound insights and mockery of power. Hayes is not just a trader but more like a "monetary alchemist", skilled at extracting gold from the ashes of policies. Although his vision of $1 million is astonishing, his latest article focuses on the realistic target of $250,000 within the year, showing his practical side.
Hayes' prediction is like a science fiction epic: Bitcoin will ride the wave of quantitative easing (QE), soaring from the low point of $76,500 last month to $250,000. He wrote in his latest article: "I still believe that Bitcoin can reach $250,000 by the end of the year because Bessent's 'BBC' has already pinned Powell in place, and the Federal Reserve will flood the market with a torrent of dollars." His optimism is based on three pillars, and the logic is like alchemy, progressing layer by layer:
Trump's "Debt Mania"
Hayes believes that Trump's goal is to become the "greatest president in history". He will never follow the old path of austerity like Herbert Hoover but will imitate FDR's way of printing money. In his article "KISS", he asked rhetorically: "Does Trump want to be the sinner of the economic collapse or the hero who prints money to save the world?" The answer is obvious: debt financing is his instinct. The cuts by D.O.G.E. seem to be austerity measures, but in fact, they are a "conspiracy" to force the Federal Reserve to open the floodgates. "He is a real estate showman, and borrowing cheap money is his forte," Hayes said with a sly smile. "The cuts are just the foreplay, and printing money is the climax."
The "Forced Easing" of the Federal Reserve
Hayes jokingly said that Powell is suppressed by Bessent's "BBC" (Big Bessent Cock) and is powerless sitting on the "Cuck Chair". The FOMC meeting on March 19 was a turning point: Powell slowed down quantitative tightening (QT), reducing the monthly reduction of Treasury bonds from $25 billion to $5 billion, releasing an annualized liquidity of $240 billion. More importantly, he hinted at the possibility of net buying of Treasury bonds in the future and even lifting the bank's Supplementary Leverage Ratio (SLR) restrictions, releasing $420 billion or more. "The Federal Reserve has never been independent," Hayes quoted Arthur Burns' speech to mock. "When the debt is overwhelming, Powell can only bend his knee." He predicts that QE will be restarted in the third quarter. Combined with interest rate cuts and SLR exemptions, a total of $3.24 trillion in liquidity may be injected.
The "Domino Effect" of Global Liquidity
Hayes' vision is not limited to the United States. He pointed out that the torrent of dollars will trigger a chain reaction: "Xi Jinping will make the central bank relax monetary policy to stabilize the exchange rate and increase the supply of the yuan; Germany will use the printed euros to build its military, and other European countries, fearing a repeat of 1939, will follow suit." This global easing will give wings to Bitcoin. "Bitcoin is the crystallization of technology + liquidity," he said. "The technology is already mature, and liquidity is the only variable." He estimates that $250,000 is the target within the year, and $1 million is the ultimate vision during Trump's term.
Hayes also regards D.O.G.E. as the "economic tank operator": cutting spending, laying off 400,000 employees, and cracking down on fraud will trigger a recession and force Powell to take action. "This is not an accident, but a script," he joked. "Powell can either put out the fire in advance or clean up the mess after the big players fall, but the result is printing money."
Core Disagreements: The Abyss of Austerity or the Carnival of Easing?
The differences between the two masters are like a peak confrontation between philosophy and strategy, with the core focusing on the game between policy paths and liquidity:
Policy Intentions
Thompson sees Trump as a "cold - blooded surgeon", reducing the economic bubble through D.O.G.E., immigration policies, and tariffs, even at the cost of a recession. In his eyes, the White House would rather let the economy lose blood to "cure the disease". Hayes, on the other hand, sees him as a "real estate madman", using D.O.G.E. to create the illusion of a recession and forcing the Federal Reserve to print money, actually paving the way for "America First". Thompson focuses on the direct consequences of austerity, while Hayes understands the underlying motive of easing.
The Federal Reserve's Response
Thompson believes that the Federal Reserve is a "lukewarm onlooker" who dare not ease aggressively under the pressure of inflation, and QE seems far away. He expects Powell to be cautious and find it difficult to reverse the situation. Hayes 反驳说,the Federal Reserve is a "tamed beast" that will restart QE under the dominance of fiscal policy and the threat of recession, and even lift the SLR exemption, turning into a fountain of liquidity. He believes that Powell has no choice but to yield.
Liquidity Results
Thompson predicts a "slow bear", where the economic slowdown depresses risky assets, and Bitcoin slowly drops to between $50,000 and $59,000. Hayes looks forward to a "fast bull", where the torrent of liquidity pushes Bitcoin up to $250,000, and even lays the groundwork for $1 million. The two have a huge difference in their judgment of liquidity, one is bearish, and the other is bullish.
In Reality, Is Hayes' Prediction of $250,000 More Promising?
In this showdown between $50,000 and $250,000, the data shows that Hayes' "surge to $250,000" may be more forward - looking. Thompson's "slow bear" logic makes sense in the short term: the cuts by D.O.G.E. have already caused a 11% drop in housing prices in Washington and the deterioration of employment data, and the shadow of recession is approaching. The Federal Reserve's cautious attitude also coincides with his judgment. Although Powell slowed down QT at the March meeting, he was still vague about QE. If the austerity exceeds expectations, it is not impossible for Bitcoin to drop to between $60,000 and $70,000. However, this is just the surface, and Hayes has grasped the deeper pulse.
In his article "KISS", Hayes hit the nail on the head: Trump is not an economic puritan but a believer in debt financing. He will not tolerate a depression that destroys his political capital but will use the "illusion of austerity" by D.O.G.E. to force Powell to open the floodgates. The slowdown of QT at the March FOMC meeting released $240 billion in liquidity, and Powell's hint of "net buying of Treasury bonds" is already a prelude to QE. Although Hayes' estimated $3.24 trillion in liquidity (interest rate cuts of $1.7 trillion + QT halt of $540 billion + QE/SLR of $500 billion - $1 trillion) has not been fully realized, the direction is clear. What's more, the potential effects of global easing - China stabilizing the exchange rate and Europe expanding its military - will magnify this torrent. As a "barometer of liquidity", Bitcoin has stabilized at $76,500, indicating that the market has smelled a turning point.
Thompson underestimated Trump's pragmatism and the passivity of the Federal Reserve. Hayes, on the other hand, understood the game between human nature and policy: Trump's nature as a "real estate showman" destined him to choose printing money, and Powell's "forced easing" under the dominance of fiscal policy is a historical fate. My judgment is: in the short term (6 - 9 months), Bitcoin may fluctuate in the range of $70,000 - $90,000 to digest the pressure of austerity; but if QE is restarted in the third quarter, it is not a fantasy for it to 冲刺 $250,000 by the end of the year. Hayes' "alchemy" wins because it has grasped the lifeline of liquidity, not the illusion of austerity.
Epilogue: The Symphonic Duel from $50,000 to $250,000
This showdown between $50,000 and $250,000 is a battle between the calm "scalpel" and the fanatical "alchemy furnace". Thompson is like a chess player, making careful moves, with a cold sense of reality in his pessimism; Hayes is like a master gambler, staking a lot, with a profound understanding of policies hidden in his optimism. No matter who has the last laugh, this debate reveals the true nature of Bitcoin: it is not an island but a mirror of the macro torrent. Investors might as well "hold Thompson's caution in one hand and Hayes' fanaticism in the other" and wait patiently for the thunderclap of QE in the fluctuations. Will the bell of $250,000 ring at the end of the year? Are you ready to welcome the climax of this symphony?
