Arthur Hayes: More Concerned About Fed Nominee Waller's Comments on Balance Sheet Than Short-Term Interest Rates
On April 28, BitMEX founder Arthur Hayes spoke about the Federal Reserve at the Bitcoin 2026 conference, stating, "When Kevin Waller was nominated as the Fed's SEC chairman, everyone started to panic because during his tenure as a Fed governor— I believe from the 2008 financial crisis until the current president— he has been very critical of the Fed's massive balance sheet. He has publicly stated that he believes the Fed's balance sheet is too large and that he needs to find ways to shrink it while also being able to lower interest rates. Now, if you have read my articles, you know that I am a firm advocate of the idea that the quantity of money is more important than its price. Therefore, I am more concerned about his comments on the balance sheet than the direction of short-term interest rates. So, if the market believes that due to Waller's actions at the Fed, the liquidity of dollars circulating in the system will decrease, then they will be bearish on Bitcoin and other risk assets. This is the discussion we see in the media about a hawkish Fed emerging after Waller takes over in May. Now, I don't think so. I believe that essentially the Fed will replace reserves, treasury bonds, and repos and put them into the commercial banking system, and they will do this with the help of new regulations concerning how banks hold assets on their balance sheets and how much capital they need to hold against those assets. Finally, I think the most important point to understand about what Waller will or will not do at the Fed is that he has a very substantial hard constraint, which is that he needs to work with Treasury's Scott Bessen to ensure that any actions he takes regarding the Fed's balance sheet do not impair Bessen's ability to sell billions and trillions of dollars in bonds. -
SEC Chair: Reg GG Crypto to Allow Private Sector Token Sales Soon
On April 28, U.S. SEC Chair Gary Gensler stated in an interview at the Bitcoin 2026 conference that the agency will continue to advance other exciting initiatives, such as truly allowing companies to conduct on-chain experiments, build tokenized securities, and trade on-chain within the United States. We plan to release innovative exemption regulations in the coming weeks. Additionally, we will permit the private sector to raise funds through on-chain token sales, which we refer to as 'Reg GG Crypto.' These initiatives are in preparation and will be launched soon. Currently, there is a bill titled the 'Clarity Act' under consideration in Congress. We do need Congress to provide regulations in this area. We are ready, willing, and able to explain their regulations and translate them into rules that people can rely on and pursue their innovative ideas. It is important to emphasize that this is happening domestically in the U.S., so they do not have to go overseas. This is the core idea that truly matters here. -
SEC Chair Discusses Clarity Act: Codified Law Provides Greater Assurance for the Future
On April 28, during the Bitcoin 2026 Conference, SEC Chair Gary Gensler spoke about the Clarity Act, stating that the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission has considerable operational flexibility under the regulations. However, we are constrained by existing authorities, which, despite some amendments over the years, fundamentally remain rooted in the framework established in the 1930s. This is why having a piece of legislation is so important; it can shield future developments from adverse impacts, allowing us to leverage new authorities and the flexibility provided by the Act. We can collaborate with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to coordinate and clarify definitions, and further develop from there. But again, nothing provides greater assurance for the future than codified law, coupled with sound judicial opinions that engrave the provisions of the law in stone through the mechanisms of the entire court system. Therefore, all of this is very important, but we are focused on efforts to simplify processes, enhance efficiency, and assist innovators in their endeavors, enabling them to operate with certainty rather than being stifled by those who jealously guard the existing ways of doing things. However, we must ensure that we remain at the forefront of innovation in the United States.
