  4. BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes announced on Twitter that he closed his short position in Bitcoin (BTC) with a 3% profit. This move comes as US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen is expected to make a major statement on the market over the weekend, which could lead to an increase in Bitcoin's value.

    Closing the Short Position

    Earlier this week, Hayes predicted that Bitcoin could fall below $50,000 over the weekend and took a short position based on that expectation. However, Bitcoin has since rebounded from its monthly lows and most recently rose above $54,000. Hayes decided to close his position earlier today, citing the possibility that Bitcoin could gain value following Yellen's upcoming statements.

    Anticipated Statement from Janet Yellen

    US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen plans to make a significant statement regarding the market this weekend. It is expected that this could lead to an influx of US dollar liquidity next week, subsequently driving up Bitcoin prices.

    Current Market Situation

    The decline observed in all markets, including traditional markets, last week came amid growing fears of a potential US recession. Despite Hayes' initial predictions, Bitcoin has shown signs of recovery.

    Arthur Hayes concluded his short position in Bitcoin, citing potential price increases following Janet Yellen's statements. While Bitcoin has shown recovery signs, markets remain volatile amidst macroeconomic factors.
