The post Arthur Hayes’ Memecoin Investment Strategy: Top Altcoin Picks Unveiled appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News
Arthur Hayes, co-founder of BitMEX, has shifted gears and is now recommending meme coins for trading, citing Bitcoin’s strong performance. Despite his previous bearish stance on Bitcoin, predicting a crash following the Federal Reserve’s interest rate cuts, Hayes has admitted he was wrong. In a recent post on X, he referenced meme coins like the MOTHER token and encouraged traders to capitalize on the opportunity while Bitcoin remains stable.
Meme Coins Gain Momentum
Hayes specifically highlighted the MOTHER meme coin, created by Australian rapper Iggy Azalea, and mentioned it’s an excellent time to “trade some dogshit meme coins.” Since its launch in June, the Solana-based memecoin MOTHER has surged 280%, reaching a market cap of over $73 million. Currently, MOTHER is priced at $0.0747, up 3.50% in the past 24 hours.
His suggestion follows a broader trend in the altcoin market, where meme coins like Shiba Inu (SHIB), Dogwifhat (WIF), and Floki (FLOKI) have seen impressive gains, with some rising by double digits in the past week. The MOTHER coin alone surged over 31%, boosted by Azalea’s announcement of an upcoming online casino, ‘Motherland,’ which will use the token for transactions.
In the meanwhile, the Fear and Greed Index is at 50, showing market stability, this gives ample opportunity for meme coins to surge as Bitcoin holds steady at $63,000.

Bitcoin’s Unexpected Resilience
Hayes initially forecasted that Bitcoin and the broader crypto market would tank after the Fed’s rate cuts. He believed the narrowing interest rate gap between the US dollar and Japanese Yen would trigger the crash. However, he has now accepted that his prediction was incorrect, pointing out that the Yen has continued to weaken. Bitcoin, on the other hand, has remained resilient, with Hayes now leaning bullish, stating, “Let the good times roll.”
Dogecoin’s Potential Breakout
Meanwhile, other meme coins, including Dogecoin (DOGE), are poised for potential rallies. A recent report by Coingape suggests DOGE could see a 45% breakout if it breaks the $0.11 resistance level, after already crossing a key RSI trendline. Hayes’s renewed focus on meme coins isn’t new, as earlier this year, he indicated his interest in accumulating Dogwifhat, forecasting significant gains for this token during the current market cycle.
For traders and meme coin enthusiasts, Hayes’s latest recommendations could signal an exciting opportunity as the altcoin market continues to gain traction. Does Hayes’ bullish stance on meme coins align with your expectations for the market’s direction?
