He highlighted the Fed’s FIMA Repo facility, which allows foreign central banks and international organisations to borrow dollars against U.S. Treasuries. Hayes outlined steps in which Japan borrows dollars, sells them for yen and buys domestic assets, while the Fed expands its balance sheet. He also discussed ethereum and Ethena, and disclosed Maelstrom’s bullish bitcoin position.
