Could This Send Bitcoin to $700K Within 10 Months?! | Simply Originals · Simply Bitcoin

0:00
Bitcoin has rebounded, surging to a local high of 74 K, but
0:05
many people are asking could this be a dead cat bounce?
0:10
Is it a bull trap before full on capitulation in Goblin Town?
0:14
Are we mirroring 2022 before teleporting to shield?
0:19
Well, according to Arthur Hayes, we could be looking at 500 to
0:22
700 K Bitcoin by the end of 2026 Yeah, and there is actually a
0:28
lot of bullish momentum and macro chaos to support all this
0:34
in the short term. We're not out of the woods yet,
0:37
but patience is about to be rewarded in a big way.
0:40
Massive breaking faith and trust in Fiat money is falling off a
0:44
Cliff. Every single government bond
0:47
yield on earth just moved up in the same direction at the same
0:52
time. That is a terrifying sign for
0:55
government currency and nations with massive of debts.
0:58
And amidst it, there is a flight to safety taking place.
1:02
ETFs and major players are accumulating.
1:06
Morgan Stanley is launching a spot Bitcoin ETF.
1:10
Kraken just became the first exchange to get access to the
1:14
Fed payment system. And did you guys see this Jamie
1:18
Dimon crying? You want to be a bank, get
1:21
regulated like a bank will. Kraken said.
1:24
Challenge accepted. Jamie, we have a ton of bullets
1:27
this to get to. Could Bitcoin be sitting at 600K
1:32
by the end of 2026? Well, let's find out.
1:40
I'm sticking with it. I think I said $250,000 Bitcoin
1:44
and I am going to stick with that until December 31st, 11:59.
1:50
Pardon me, I tried to make it a. Little better.
1:52
For you there, Arthur. I tried to.
1:54
Say it was 200,000. Knocked 50 grand off.
1:56
But you're sticking with the 250 by by the end of 2026.
2:01
What do you think? I think we're be, you know, 500
2:07
to 750,000 Bitcoin, I think 2026 and 2027.
2:10
This is the meat of the money printing the the Trump
2:14
administration is going to do what they know how to do best,
2:16
whatever government knows how to do best.
2:18
When in doubt, print the money. If the people are unhappy, print
2:20
the money and hand them a goodie and they're going to show up
2:22
with the polls and hopefully both.
2:24
So what has Arthur Hayes so bullish?
2:27
It is the confluence, the combination of events, this
2:32
perfect storm, maybe not for society, but for Bitcoin.
2:36
The Trump administration, the Iran conflict, Fed easing, the
2:40
Fed Treasury Accord, All of it points to one thing.
2:45
Money printer Go, let's start here, Trump said.
2:48
The banks are not stopping this administrations crypto agenda,
2:52
but the fight is on as the market structure bill draws
2:55
near. Got the Genius Act passed into
2:58
law, which actually did enable stable coin rewards to happen.
3:03
You know, the banks had their own concerns and we reached a
3:05
good outcome in the genius Act. And now the banks really are
3:08
coming and trying to undermine the president's crypto agenda.
3:11
I mean, these are the same banks that, you know, debanked his him
3:14
and his family, right? And they want to come in and say
3:17
that Americans should not be able to actually earn more money
3:19
on their money. They're trying to protect their
3:21
own profit margins, taking money out of the, you know, pockets of
3:25
hard working average Americans and putting it into the coffers
3:28
of these big banks that are hitting record profits.
3:31
And so our view is that there should be a level playing field
3:34
where banks and crypto companies can lean into stable coin
3:37
legislation as an opportunity. And that includes paying rewards
3:41
to Americans so that they can earn more money on their money.
3:43
Trump is demanding the banks to get in line in Congress to get
3:47
the bill to his desk and it's kind of hilarious to see the guy
3:50
that's been de banking people and creating this mess.
3:54
Well they can't compete so they try to enforce and use a
3:57
regulatory Moat in order to ensure your poverty.
4:02
Good luck with that and GFY Jamie Dimon, your services are
4:06
no longer required. People have convoluted the
4:09
concept of money to benefit them.
4:12
It's like, Oh no, bitcoins, not money.
4:14
You're talking about an asset, the dollar's money.
4:16
No, how about you? First of all, don't tell me what
4:20
to think or how to say what I want to say.
4:23
Money is what I want to save. Then I later exchange for the
4:26
things I want in my life. Now, if I walk into the pizza
4:29
parlor and they say, well, we technically only accept dollars
4:32
at that moment, then I just convert my Bitcoin to dollars
4:35
and I had to get the pizza. But what I used as money was
4:39
Bitcoin because I exchanged the work I'm doing for those around
4:42
me for Bitcoin and then later exchange it for the things I
4:45
want. So this convoluted concept that
4:48
there's like all these different forms of like, fuck you.
4:52
It's, I just don't buy it. And sorry, like, 'cause it,
4:55
'cause it really, it really does bother me.
4:57
If like, you know, there are powerful people in this industry
5:01
that you guys all probably follow online.
5:04
And, and, and I'm not saying they're bad people, but they've
5:06
tapped me on the shoulder and say, Hey, you know, don't say
5:09
that on CNBC or I don't like the way you talk about the dollar.
5:13
Sorry. Good thing I'm I'm me and you're
5:15
you and you say whatever you want.
5:18
And then in regards to the Treasury?
5:20
That's right. Yeah.
5:21
It's important. And that's this particular.
5:23
So can I add a little context there, if you don't mind?
5:27
This particular port is really important for for the last, you
5:31
know, I've been the White House correspondent for Bitcoin
5:33
magazine. There are certain pressures that
5:35
get put on people when they're in certain roles.
5:36
So for the sake, you know, I think it really deserves a round
5:39
of applause you just gave him because that tap on the shoulder
5:41
does happen to people and they get told to think about things a
5:44
certain way and message a certain way.
5:46
And his messaging has remained consistent throughout.
5:48
And this is really important. It's why you're up here.
5:50
Because I think what you do in with that messaging is you speak
5:53
to the hearts of everybody in this room who's taking the time,
5:56
who's used their money to come here, spend time at a Bitcoin
5:58
conference to be around other like minded people who see
6:01
Bitcoin as money. So I think this point is really,
6:03
really important. The amount of pressure, it
6:04
really can't be underestimated by people who might not be in
6:07
these environments. But I'm curious, is it just, is
6:09
it just your sense of integrity? It has to be hard at points.
6:13
I have to imagine there are points where the pressure kind
6:15
of feels like so much, like maybe it would be easier to just
6:17
tow this line that people want me to tell.
6:19
Again, it's like I just am very passionate and feel very
6:22
strongly about being real. Like as a human being I was, I
6:26
was born to love others, to contribute to something bigger
6:31
than myself. Like this is bigger than me and
6:34
it's bigger than anyone else's self-interest as well.
6:37
And so, you know, I don't think any of us were born inherently
6:43
bad or wrong. So why I wouldn't want to stand
6:47
for the truth and be honest. So you know what, what's my
6:51
preference to be honest? Stand for what I believe in.
6:54
And by the way, not in not in an arrogant fashion.
6:57
I'll be the first to raise my hand, which I've done throughout
6:59
my career all the time when I'm wrong, you know, I've, I've
7:03
said, I got to squeeze this in here just for this.
7:06
My team's going to kill me. But I've said, hey, it seems
7:09
like Jamie Dimon banked Jeffrey Epstein.
7:12
Big words, big words. No, listen, I've I've said that
7:16
pretty publicly because it seems like it's true.
7:21
And JP Morgan threw me out of the bank hilariously.
7:26
And if he ever called me up and said, listen, man, you can't say
7:29
stuff like that because here's the evidence that I didn't.
7:31
He's never done that. He's never once provide.
7:34
So I'm happy to raise my hand. The point is and say I was
7:37
wrong. The dollar's money, Bitcoins and
7:39
assets. But it's not for those reasons
7:42
that people tie me on the shoulder.
7:43
They tie me on the shoulders like, well, you're saying things
7:46
that you know would make other people upset.
7:49
If the truth makes you upset, that says a lot about you, not
7:52
me. Appreciate that.
7:55
Despite the monetary demons war against Bitcoin, they're being
8:01
forced into adoption. Kraken's Chartered Bank, Kraken
8:05
Financial, just became the first crypto bank to get a Federal
8:09
Reserve master account. Now, master accounts allow
8:12
financial institutions to access key central bank services like
8:16
payment settlement platforms Fed Now and Fed Wire.
8:20
Kraken Co CEO Arjun Sethi said in a statement that the approval
8:24
would let the company operate as a directly connected financial
8:27
institution rather than a peripheral participant.
8:31
Other crypto companies have tried and failed to win approval
8:34
for a master account. Most famously, Custodia Bank
8:37
sued the Federal Reserve after repeatedly being denied an
8:41
account. An appeals court denied
8:43
Custodia's appeal back in November. 2025.
8:47
OK, that's all for. Reckon just got put on the same
8:50
payment rails as thousands of U.S., banks and credit unions.
8:54
Massive adoption wave is coming and Iran will not only bring
8:58
about money printing the likes of which we probably never seen,
9:01
but it has absolutely devastated faith and trust in the
9:05
administration, in the dollar, in Fiat money globally.
9:09
And thus we have another catalyst.
9:11
Because if people can't trust the government's, how can they
9:14
trust the money that they print? I am the candidate of peace.
9:18
I am peace. People don't believe that.
9:23
Vote for Donald Trump is a vote. For a.
9:26
Man who wants. To end wars, not start them.
9:29
We do not want war with. Iran, we actually.
9:31
Want peace? The Iranians are clearly not.
9:34
Very good at war, perhaps? They should follow.
9:36
President. Trump's lead?
9:37
And give peace a chance. Kamala is campaigning with war
9:40
mongers like Liz Cheney. How do you think that is?
9:42
She picks Liz Cheney, Whose father virtually destroyed the
9:48
Middle East. You know, Liz Cheney, she talks
9:50
bigger. Oh, I want war.
9:51
She always wants war. Every time I was with her in the
9:53
White House. We should attack this nation,
9:56
that nation, nations that people never even heard of, we should
9:59
attack. She's a big, big tough guy.
10:01
She sits back in Washington. Oh, we ought to go and attack
10:06
Iran, Iraq. We're going to attack everybody.
10:09
That's why I broke up with her. All she wanted to do is go to
10:12
war with everybody. These war Hawks, they want to
10:15
draft your kids to die in wars, and they will never fight
10:20
themselves. You know, we'll stay around the
10:21
country for 15 years, just bomb the hell out of everybody, make
10:24
everybody miserable. Nobody knows why we're there.
10:27
You know, the wars that never end, these endless wars that
10:30
we've been in, I've gotten us out of so many.
10:32
We don't want to get into wars. We're tired of fighting.
10:35
I'm the only president in the last 84 years that didn't start
10:39
a war under Trump. We will have no more wars, no
10:42
more wars, no more wars we want. We will have prosperity and
10:46
peace. We will have prosperity and we
10:48
will have peace. Remember, I'm the president of
10:50
peace. They said he will start a war.
10:52
I'm not going to start a war. I'm going to stop wars.
10:54
He's going to start a war. I said no, no, no.
10:57
My rhetoric is going to keep us out of wars.
11:00
And that's what happened. My proudest legacy will be that
11:04
of a peacemaker. That's what I want to be, a
11:06
peacemaker. We will measure our success not
11:09
only by the battles we win, but also by the wars that we end,
11:14
and perhaps most importantly, the wars we never get into.
11:20
Our president will start a war with Iran because he has
11:24
absolutely no ability to negotiate.
11:27
He's weak and he's ineffective. I believe that he will attack
11:31
Iran sometime prior to the election because he thinks
11:35
that's the only way he can get elected, Isn't it?
11:38
Pathetic. And if you thought your faith
11:40
and trust couldn't go lower, well, look at this.
11:43
The House just voted 357 to 65 to block the release of
11:46
congressional sexual misconduct and harassment reports.
11:50
And whammy, The Senate just voted 53 to 47 to block a War
11:55
Powers resolution to stop further military strikes on Iran
11:59
without congressional approval. And people are learning more and
12:02
more every day that their government actually has disdain
12:07
for them. I think you all saw this.
12:09
This is what they really think of their constituents.
12:12
This is what they really think of veterans.
12:14
This is what they really appear to think about soldiers.
12:18
This is what they think about you.
12:21
And look at the media. US Senator and former Navy SEAL
12:24
Tim Sheehy personally stepped in to assist Capitol Police in
12:27
subduing a, quote, disruptive man who was aggressively
12:31
interrupting a Senate hearing. They referred to the Marine as a
12:35
disruptive man, a protester. I mean did Orwell nail it or did
12:41
he nail it? But what kind of country and
12:43
media praised the senator who has received nearly 700 K from a
12:48
foreign lobby and broke this soldiers hand, possibly his arm
12:53
for having the audacity to stand up and speak his opinion.
12:57
And this is how they treated a service member just for stating
13:01
an opinion which happens to be held by a large portion of the
13:05
country. They treated him worse than
13:07
people who were lighting cars on fire.
13:10
So if you have no hope or faith in our government or
13:14
institutions, well good. And more adjoining the ranks
13:18
every day. There is little to no hope to be
13:21
found in the state. They are literally hell bent on
13:25
destruction. But keep your head up because
13:28
they're ineptitude and disgrace is rocket fuel for Bitcoin and
13:33
sound money. We're about to bring it home,
13:35
but before we do look at our likes 3 or 4 times.
13:39
Maybe I'll pump those numbers up.
13:40
Those are rookie. Numbers in this racket.

15:25
With everything happening, it's easy to let emotions get in the
15:29
way of remembering this little fact.
15:32
War means money printing and loss of liberties and all sorts
15:36
of other things. It may actually be an excuse for
15:39
the money printing to begin with.
15:41
But regardless there will be printing whether we go to 300 K,
15:46
500 to 750K or where. I'm thinking here as well. 600K
15:53
and rising to the number 2 asset behind gold and back above
15:56
silver. It's coming.
15:58
So batten down the hatches lats, because even at 750K it's only a
16:03
pit stop on the way to Valhalla and the possibility of World War
16:08
3 is higher than ever. Which is probably a good time to
