Arkham: Arthur Hayes' Net Worth Estimated Between $200 Million and $350 Million
According to a report on Arthur Hayes' net worth and on-chain holdings released by Arkham, the estimated net worth of BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes is between $200 million and $350 million. Hayes' wealth once exceeded $1 billion during the 2021 bull market, and he was widely reported as one of the youngest billionaires in the cryptocurrency industry. However, it has since significantly decreased following the market correction.
Hayes' verified on-chain holdings currently amount to $42 million. The largest holding is the USDC stablecoin, valued at nearly $27 million. Additionally, he holds Ether.Fi's EETH and WEETH products worth $8.6 million, as well as investments in Ethena (ENA), Lido (LDO), and Pendle (PENDLE) valued at $8.5 million. The primary component of his wealth is his stake in BitMEX. Although BitMEX reached a valuation of $3.6 billion in 2019 with annual trading volume exceeding $1 trillion, its current daily trading volume is approximately $385 million. Arkham conservatively estimates its valuation at $500 million for 2026. As a co-founder, Hayes could hold up to a 33% stake, but this may have been diluted after years of turmoil.
