Odaily Planet Daily reports that Arthur Hayes, in his latest long-form article “Suavemente,” points out that the U.S. “arrest” of Maduro and the geopolitical actions that effectively control Venezuela’s oil resources aim to suppress oil prices and curb inflation, providing President Trump with continued room for loose monetary and fiscal expansion, thereby maintaining voter support in the midterm elections. He believes that in an environment of “money printing stimulation + controlled energy prices,” nominal GDP growth will boost risk assets, especially inflation-hedging assets like Bitcoin. He explicitly states: current strategy should be to “go long on BTC and quality crypto assets,” with Maelstrom nearly fully allocated into 2026, and he is optimistic about the privacy narrative sector (such as ZEC) becoming the next main trend.
