Could Bitcoin Hit $1 Million by 2026? Arthur Hayes Makes Exciting Forecast

[danadc]

I see this prediction as very big, not impossible, but quite big, it is something that could be real and possible, but I highly doubt it because many things have to happen, everyone would have to buy bitcoin while it is rising, with the option of winning But while it is going up, what I can think is that they could be quite optimistic but it seems very difficult to me that it could reach that price, I would like it because it would be too valuable, it would be something great, in any case what should be done here is that We should all save bitcoin because we don't know what can happen , for better or worse , things can happen and hopefully it will be for the better.

People don't know btc price next month and somebody still talking about 2026 lol

Their is some people who calculate the price of bitcoin above for intervals of two years ahead, but when looking at he or her opinion over bitcoin price come 2026 you will know that this particular suggestions or predictions is like something that is under assumption.

Actually we are in the year of 2023 and we are even expecting bitcoin halving which has not come to pass as people reasons or expected but the op is emphasising on 2026 over two years coming of bitcoin price, which 2024 and 2025 nobody sure of the price of bitcoin.

The thing is that we all know that bitcoin price is rotational maybe the op have a radar it uses to know Actually where the price of bitcoin will take us to, but some predictions or speculation of bitcoin do come to reality when you overlooked it, but when bitcoin want to skyrocket the way it was before the thing that happened is that they will be a signal that will passed across, even through the chart you can know that bitcoin is will increase anytime soon despite that nobody can predict the future of bitcoin accurately.

Hayes thinks Bitcoin could become really valuable, like between $750,000 and $1 million by 2026.-Bold Crypto analysis



Bitcoin has been doing well lately, going up by about 29% since March. It almost hit. $30,000 but didn't quite get there. Right now, it's worth more than before when it was around $24,000. Arthur Hayes the cofounder of BitMEX, has a big idea about what might happen with Bitcoin in the future. While banks around the world are making it harder to get money, Hayes thinks Bitcoin could become really valuable, like between $750,000 and $1 million by 2026.

Do you believe on that? how much capitalization for Bitcoin only to reach that much?
now Bitcoin has 552 billion capitalization and valuing 28k ,so if that is the target to take a million dollar each so bitcoin needs to have 5 trillion at least in capitalization ?
not sure if you really know what can happen because that is too far from reality now.
yeah we are crossing halving but how can we take that in 2026 when the bull expected to come in 2024 or at least early 2025?
what would 2026 can bring for this to come true?

Not really that something new here on this market on which these kind of price approach and predictions is really that something very common or something that we would really be seeing on which those speculations whether 1M per coin or telling about getting to 1000 or even zero on which this market does have tons of speculations that in regards to price but one things for sure into those people who had made out those kind of predictions about having its price to be like that without even trying to make out some simple maths on how big that marketcap could be on the time that it would reach out on that certain price point.
With those numbers alone  then we could already tell that it cant really be just that possible for it to reach for 3 years from now and this is why it isnt really that hard to make use of your own
common sense and telling that this is some BS kind of speculation which doesnt needs to get that attention.

Somehow in speaking about adoption and recognition then it is really that something that do move forwards and its inevitable. Lets just not make ourselves that put up in a rush and telling
numbers which arent really that even realistic at all. There are just that speculation which its never been that realistic and surprisingly there are people who do really easily believe with those kind of claims.

Reaching a million is not the real question, everyone focuses on just the money but doesn't really focus on the implication. The real question should be why it did that if it does it? I mean lets assume that it reached 1 million by 2026 December right? Why did it happened? If it is just "a lot of people bought bitcoin so this happened" then yeah that would be lovely and it is not happening, not that many people will buy it in about less than 3 years, that's way too much increase and not happening.

However, if we are talking about some world war, which is more and more likely everyday and there are west vs east stuff going on once again where it is Israel and Ukraine used as western puppets versus Palestine and Russia which is used as east puppets, then I would say it is possible. I need to think about this as well, if it is a bad world situation then that's possible but not good for any of us. We need to hope that it doesn't reach a million for any bad reasons.

[barhavsky]

no one can guess it correctly, but with the existing data, I also believe that Bitcoin can definitely reach $1 million if a bullrun occurs, therefore if before or during 2026 a bullrun occurs, then the price of Bitcoin will reach $1 million or even more than that and if the bullrun doesn't happen until 2026, then I'm sure the price of Bitcoin will definitely be difficult to reach $1 million, but I'm sure that the bullrun will definitely happen soon (my prediction is 2025).

[Don Pedro Dinero]

From one year to the next year. I kept see more and more non sense forecast.

And it seems that they have not learned from this cycle, which is the one in which most stratospheric predictions have failed. The normal thing after this cycle would be to make moderate predictions, but certain people either want to give themselves publicity with these predictions or they really believe that because institutional money is going to come in and things like that, the price is going to go up so fast.

I don't pay much attention, I have my plan and I follow it, these predictions are good for entertainment, but I don't base my investment decisions on them.

It’s amazing how people can easily predict an astronomical price in a short period of time despite the current price is far higher than the predicted price. 100K price target is more feasible but anything above 7 digit prediction is insane because we didn’t even touch the 6 digit area for 13 years of existence of Bitcoin while he is predicting it for just a mere 3 years from now.

This is only possible to happened if billionaire like Bezos will all-in or $ value will decrease hard due to inflation.

The prediction might actually be made to show the enormous potential in Bitcoin and not necessarily to come to pass. That said, we cannot wave off the fact that it is possible because Bitcoin have great history in daring the impossible. 2024 halving will show if this is possible or not.

[Sophokles]

Bitcoin can reach $1 million in the future but there are very few chances that it will be around 2026. If bitcoin hits $1 million in 2026 then investors will get more than 14x from its ATH. In the last bull run bitcoins return on investment was more than 5X so it won't be able to outperform that this time. Even if bitcoin makes a 5X return from its ATH in the next bull run its price will be around 300k. In my opinion more reasonable ROI for bitcoin is 3X to 4X.

One should not go to extremes in making predictions. Such predictions distract the market from reality. I think predictions need to be more realistic and achievable. Of course, Bitcoin price can reach the mentioned prices, but I think there is a long time before this happens. That's why I think it would be better to go step by step. Our first goal now is to pass ATH.

While making our investments, we need to make them in line with more realistic targets. If the things we dream of are too far away, we may feel sad in some situations. It may be better to proceed slowly to avoid putting ourselves in such situations.

[tabas]

As of now, based on gold's market capitalization is on $13.51T and that's around more than 23 times compared to Bitcoin's current market cap of $583B. If we'll get to that point that Bitcoin reaches the same market cap of gold as $13.51T then that's going to be around $687k each Bitcoin.
So the rest of calculation, you can do it. We're still far from that and there's a need for a parabolic movement for it to reach $1M by 2026. Do I think that it's going to be enough by that given timeframe? I have no idea. With all volatility and unpredictability of Bitcoin, 50/50 or 20/80 of chances.

Those who are making this kind of prediction have no idea about the bitcoin market and its behavior. What they are seeing is its enormous historical growth, which provokes them to fantasize about a price that is far away from reality. Sometimes they make comments like this to get media attention and followers who share similar sentiments. What is more important than price is adoption which isn't happening as expected.

I don't agree with your opinion, someone is free to predict the market as long as he doesn't determine when the predicted price will be reached, imagine if someone predicted a price of $50k when the price of bitcoin was still $1-10 at that time, do you think that prediction is too extreme?

I'm sure you will answer "no," because the $50k price was already surpassed at last year's ATH, note the point of the prediction that he did not specify when the prediction was reached.

The title gives us a timeline until 2026 to predict the price. I tried to present the facts about reality based on the time given in the title. Bitcoin's ROI is over 50k percent and it can go another 50k percent in the future but no one knows when that will be and it won't be ridiculous to predict a growth like this as bitcoin has already shown us it can grow like this. When you are talking about a price within a specific time zone, you need to be more specific about the price and why you think it will go that way.

Of course. It's all about generating publicity. No one can tell where Bitcoin's price will go because of its unpredictable nature. Just because BTC went up in the past, doesn't mean the same will happen again. There's no guarantee BTC will reach $1m in the near future. All we can do is speculate with the hopes of seeing our predictions come true someday.

Remember, it's not about the price but rather the utility of any given cryptocurrency. Bitcoin is by far the most decentralized and useful cryptocurrency ever created. It could last a lifetime if it keeps delivering as promised. I can't say the same about other cryptocurrencies (altcoins) that are untested and subject to failure. Especially centralized "shitcoins" like Solana, XRP, and BNB. With or without $1m, don't expect Bitcoin to go anywhere soon. Who knows if it becomes the world's standard unit of account in the future? Just my thoughts

I also doubt about realizing this within just three years to come, we are not even at hundred thousand dollars yet but some are talking about million, what an overexxergeration is this, let's assume that after this halving, bitcoin will reach about 150, 000 dollars and then we started the movement from there to hundreds of thousands before thinking about million, this is not because we are limiting the extent to which bitcoin can go, but we have to be realistic about anything we are doing.

Bitcoin has the potential but there are challenges that it needs to overcome first. It is not a widely accepted currency, and not a significant part of the world population shares this market. What it has is speculators and wealthy personalities who are speculating the market with their cash. We need real adoption, real users who will use bitcoin for their daily activities and business. We are not getting that as it should be.

[JoyMarsha]

People don't know btc price next month and somebody still talking about 2026 lol

Exactly, I'm already tired of all those promises and predictions. I prefer simply DCAing and not thinking too much about that.

These are speculation. Don't take it to the heart.  Everyone is free to make any forecast they want as far as the crypto market is concerned, but it doesn't guarantee it will come true. It sounds good to be concentrating on your DCA strategy right now, but you should also know when to give up to avoid missing the opportunity to position yourself for the next

This type of prediction will always be possible in the future, but the problem is we can't pinpoint as to what certain year its going to happen knowing the market is so unpredictable that we can't even rightly guess what will be the next month or year's bitcoin price. But you know what, everyone needs to hear this because it will create a good motivation for us to keep accumulating bitcoin seeing it has a lot of potentials to give in the future.

However, the only problem with this type of prediction is that beginners will be more interested to enter bitcoin investment because they assume that what these big influencers are saying will definitely come true in the future.  The truth is all of these are just assumptions, so we don't have to rely our decisions from these different assumptions knowing we're not even sure if they will actually happen or will only remain as a pure speculation.
