Hayes warns AI bubble burst could hit crypto, sells altcoins and focuses on BTC and ETH

BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes said he has sold all major altcoin holdings and refocused his crypto portfolio on bitcoin and ether. He warned that if enthusiasm for investment in the AI industry fades in the short term, risk assets broadly could face a correction. Hayes cited oil prices, potential large IPOs by SpaceX, Anthropic and OpenAI, and possible anti-AI policies by U.S. President Donald Trump as key factors that could shake the AI boom.
