November 18th, BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes stated in his latest blog post "Snow Forecast" that, "Bitcoin has dropped from $125,000 to around $90,000, while the S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 indices are still hovering at historical highs, which leads me to believe that a credit event may be brewing. This view is supported by the decline in the U.S. dollar liquidity index since July. If the assessment is correct, the stock market may experience a 10%–20% correction, while the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield approaches 5%, forcing the Federal Reserve, Treasury Department, or other U.S. government agencies to urgently roll out some form of money printing scheme. During this soft period, Bitcoin may decline to $80,000 to $85,000. If the broader risk markets collapse, the Federal Reserve and Treasury Department accelerate their money printing actions, Bitcoin could rally to $200,000 to $250,000 by the end of the year."

November 18th. Founder of DeFiance Capital, Arthur, expressed in a post that the product design of crypto derivatives (mainly perpetual contracts) and their related market structure are still the biggest issues that the industry must address before sustainable development to the next stage. The industry cannot afford to go through wealth destruction events of this scale time and time again while pretending that everything is normal without fixing structural issues. However, there is hope to build better products by drawing from historical experiences.Founder of Wintermute, Evgeny Gaevoy, replied to this by stating that traditional finance has long solved these issues, and the real problem is not the design of perpetual contracts but rather those centralized (and semi-decentralized) exchanges that combine market-making, a centralized limit order book (CLOB), and custody in one entity.
