Arthur Hayes, the former CEO of BitMEX, believes that if the US Federal Reserve raises interest rates by 50 basis points, it will be a "nuclear catastrophe" for financial markets.

In a recent interview, Hayes stated that the Fed's aggressive monetary policy tightening could lead to a significant market crash. He warned that a 50 basis point rate hike would be "a nuclear catastrophe for financial markets."

Hayes argued that the Fed's actions are driven by political considerations rather than economic fundamentals. He believes that the central bank is under pressure to control inflation, even if it means sacrificing the stability of the financial system.

The former BitMEX CEO also expressed concerns about the potential impact of the Fed's policies on the cryptocurrency market. He suggested that the crypto industry could face significant challenges if the broader financial markets experience a severe downturn.
