BTC hovered above 77,000 all morning, and neither bulls nor bears were particularly energetic. But today, there’s a signal worth paying more attention to than the price itself: Arthur Hayes posted a new piece, directly calling for ETH to reach $10,000 by year-end.
Hold off on getting overly excited or mocking it. When it comes to a person like Hayes, you have to break down what he’s saying.
His core logic isn’t “ETH is technically great” or “the ecosystem is booming.” It’s a whole macro transmission chain: EUR/JPY falls → French banks run into trouble → liquidity tightens in the repo market → the Fed is forced to expand its balance sheet → the crypto market benefits. In plain terms: it’s not that the coin world is proving itself—it’s that the water from outside is starting to rise.
Is this logic correct? At this stage, it’s still only a hypothesis. But Hayes’s track record is there for everyone to see: he called for buying the bottom in March 2020, and for escaping the top in 2021. In terms of the big direction, he rarely gets it wrong. So when he speaks, the market is seriously listening.
That said, let me remind you: what Hayes said was “ETH to $10,000 by the end of the year,” not “it will pump tomorrow.” There are three months in between—too many things can happen. Geopolitical conflicts, rate-hike expectations, regulatory policies—any one variable could throw off the timing.
And besides, from today’s ETH level of 2,400 to 10,000 is a fourfold move. If you hear this news and go all-in immediately, and it drops 30% first on the way up, can you withstand it?
Listen to the big guys’ predictions for what they are. Your own position is your responsibility. In a real bull market, the truth is you won’t miss it just because you entered a few days late. But if it’s fake, the moment you rush in, you’re the one picking up the bag.

🧧Good morning and welcome to September 👋 ☺️ I took a little break and came back to find crypto had its BEST month of 2026 while I was gone 😂 BTC hit $80,000. Gained 24% in August alone.
Strongest month in 3 years.
SOL rallied 44% in August. ETH ETFs pulled $1 billion in inflows in 8 straight days. Arthur Hayes called ETH his number one pick with 3x to 5x potential. Russia activated its digital ruble on September 1 , regulated crypto trading officially live for the first time.
And now September is setting up to be the most important month of 2026:
September 6: $797 million HYPE token unlock September 11: US CPI report September 15: Senate Clarity Act vote September 16: Fed rate decision Four things. Three weeks. All of them could move the market violently in either direction.
August rewarded patience😋. September will test it 😎
Grab the Red Packet and let's navigate this together 🧧
Bitcoin is approaching a critical level, and the market is paying close attention.
If buyers continue to defend the current momentum, BTC could be preparing for its next major move. No one can predict the market with certainty, so staying patient,
managing risk, and avoiding emotional trades is always the smarter approach.
