Arthur Hayes goes bearish on BTC, ETH

Hayes opined that the value of Bitcoin could test the $30,000 level before July or the beginning of Q3 2022. He also predicted that Ether would decline to the $2,500 price area by June. The predictions were based on the price correlation between the two leading digital currencies and the Nasdaq-100 stock market index.
