Arthur Hayes advises retail investors to hold crypto long-term instead of speculating

BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes stated that retail investors are at a structural disadvantage when competing with institutional investors, Wu Blockchain reported. He argued that AI can manipulate market sentiment and overwhelm individual traders, adding that in an environment of macroeconomic uncertainty and speculative trading, competing against institutional algorithms is a losing battle. Consequently, Hayes advised that it is more rational for retail investors to shift away from short-term trading strategies and instead focus on holding cryptocurrencies for the long term.
