✨ DEBRIEF ✨ | Find out why 1D = 1B: https://shows.banklesshq.com/p/debrief-arthur-hayes 

----- This episode has been a long time coming. Arthur Hayes is the crypto trader of traders, and he's particularly bullish on the ETH trade. 

Today, he tells us why.

We've been binging Arthur's writing lately, trying to get inside his head about how he approaches the markets. 

Discussing the inevitability of inflation, the chaotic macro picture, and of course the Ethereum Merge, we piece together the mindset of a trader who has survived the massacre of 2022.
