Arthur Hayes Confirmed As A Bitcoin 2026 Speaker
Arthur Hayes, one of the most provocative and incisive minds in Bitcoin, has been officially confirmed as a speaker at Bitcoin 2026, returning to the world’s largest Bitcoin conference to deliver his signature blend of macroeconomic analysis, geopolitical insight, and unfiltered conviction on where the global financial system is headed — and why Bitcoin is the only rational response.
As the co-founder of BitMEX and the founder of Maelstrom, Hayes has built a reputation as one of the sharpest macro thinkers in the space, consistently ahead of the curve on the forces driving Bitcoin’s role in the broader monetary landscape. His widely-read essays have become essential reading for traders, institutions, and anyone trying to make sense of a world being reshaped by debt, inflation, and geopolitical fragmentation.
At Bitcoin 2026 in Las Vegas, Hayes will bring his unfiltered perspective on where the global financial order is headed — and what it means for Bitcoin.
