Prepare for bold statements in 2026

[Furball808]

As we approach the new year, know that there will be many bold predictions we will see on the internet both positive and negative ones. You might see people saying bitcoin will finally approach $500k next year or some might say bitcoin will drop drastically. But that might not even be really the case. Bitcoin might just move sideways. But still do not be easily swayed.

Normally there will always be speculations about the of the bitcoin price and that’s the main reason why the prices fluctuates but we all know that this price you’re calling is outrageous currently bitcoin is around $87k and you are talking about $500k, I don’t see that happening in the next two year even.

But let cross out fingers and watch the magic that happens this new year we are all anticipating,  i’m very optimistic that there will be a bullrun, but this as much as your projecting. Though it might hit another all time high again but nothings close to $200k

Claim that bitcoin will hit $500k next year is like seeing fire and stepping in to it because basically we have met with the all time of bitcoin, 2024 bitcoin did ATH, 2025 bitcoin say more and in 2026 which is suppose to be the beginning of beararlet some will be claiming such ridiculous ATH? even in my dreams I would wake up with anger issues against the person in reality because what in the world are you thinking, even Merlin can't manipulate that to happen. Let's just be realistic and say within context bitcoin is going to do it's thing not too bad not too good.

You are only explaining the normal course of any Market in a very complicated way.  Yes, any thing can happen and Bitcoin is not an exception.  The people who believe other wise are unexperienced, lack knowledge and are naive to selfishly think their Asset will move better than Assets others own.

Anyone can make their own predictions about Bitcoin these days, especially now that so many people seem to be able to analyze Bitcoin prices with various tools and strategies, predicting them as if they can see into the future. but what's clear is that whatever someone else predicts, it's still just a prediction, never blindly follow it. always ensure that your decisions are based on your own research and understanding, never rely on predictions as your sole source of information, as this can be a dangerous trap that can lead you to decisions you might regret.

I think 2026 will be the year that everything hits the reset button after the horrible Biden Presidency.  I'm expecting all assets to crash from current prices by around 10-20% and for unemployment to spike.  I also think the rate reductions and QE that is to come will send inflation and markets roaring again before the end of 2027.

[AVE5]

Bitcoin volatilities is mysterious that's why it's uncertainty for predictions.
We also know that the market currently is at it mixed phase in the long term consolidation which even makes it indirective for analysts predictions to come near.
I also believe that the market falls at the bottom was like something unexpected that's why we should always expect the unexpected in bitcoin and crypto markets.
Some were also locked out after making plans for the Christmas and the market approach disrupted their plans. But being positively minded, the market phase will show it self in the first quarter of 2026 and those who held firmly and those who had been buying at the Dip will surely have testimony when the price we rebound and new Aths will be met.

This is something that always happens towards the end of a bull season. I'm not really surprised because this also happened in the previous season. Since few months ago, some people already talked about the possibility of extended bullish in 2026 or the new peak prices of BTC in 2026. So, I'm used to unreasonable predictions, I've seen too many of them. However, so far I still assume the cycle will last as usual. There will be no something really special in 2026, it is probably a bearish period. Rather than thinking too much on unreasonable predictions, I prefer to focus on increasing funding (fiats, stable coins) to prepare for accumulation in 2026-2027. I've planned to accumulate gradually when Bitcoin price has been around $40k-$60k. I think it is a safe way for buying Bitcoin for another 4 years holding.

As we put it this way, anyone can give their own take on this market. But very few will actually do the actual investments in this market. We can speculate all day long but if you won't put any penny on this currency, such speculation won't matter.
We have observed throughout the years that bitcoin remains to be on top of these digital currencies and I am not seeing any change anytime soon. So if you have strong belief on this market, you can always do what is necessary like start accumulating some satoshis or do some other works that can pay btc or even mine some if you have the luxury to buy miners.

Bitcoin might just move sideways. But still do not be easily swayed.

We still don’t know for sure what Bitcoin’s condition will be at the beginning of the year, but we’ve already encountered a lot of speculation. We really shouldn’t be surprised by speculation that we might consider baseless. We can read those updates, but we don’t need to follow all of them. Indeed, we see that Bitcoin tends to move sideways. But it seems that what is happening is a gradual, small decline. If next year the markets still move slowly, the situation might not be very different from what it is now.

Nothing new.

I mean we've seen it over and over again. Predictions that seems unrealistic. Predictions of these famous influencers where they're saying that it will reach X price in just a short amount of time, and if you're in the crypto space for quite some time, and you know how the market moves, you will see that this is impossible to happen. Bitcoin might just move sideways, or maybe we will see some bounces here and there, but if the 4-year cycle comes into play, we will see 2026 as the year where bear market will happen or at least we will see more downwards movement.

Statements and predictions from these analysts or influencers are the ones that we shouldn't follow. Newbies unfortunately are the ones that are vulnerable on these one as they might just agree to them because they don't have that much knowledge at all. Anyway, I'll predict that Bitcoin will reach as low as $50,000 or even $30,000 until October of 2026.

Not only on the eve of the New Year, but throughout the entire existence of bitcoin, various forecasts will be voiced, both positive and negative. These are just rumors that can be safely ignored. No sensible investor will base their strategy on someone else's forecasts. This should be based on facts and market analysis. In other words, any purchase or sale should be based on your personal investment strategy, preferably with a multi-year investment perspective.

Bitcoin is always moving somewhere. Sometimes up, sometimes down, sometimes sideways. This is normal. But ultimately, it still tends to move in a wave-like motion toward the moon. Keep this in mind.

Ignore the "noise" around you. Just keep walking moving towards your investment goals.

Not just Bitcoin, there are predictions about stocks, precious stones, real estate and other investment sectors. My prediction is that Bitcoin is entering the bear season next year. 2026 is my year of unending accumulation of Bitcoin. My goal is to explore alternative means of income to increase my purchasing power. As the year goes on, the information available will also determine whether I would adjust or continue with my plans. I don't care about these predictions by so-called experts, some of them are just attention seekers.

The market won't just stay sideways forever at some point it will go wild. The recent surge of gold and silver price is an indicative of what's gonna happen.

It seems we might be seeing some kind of economy crisis since that is what usually happen when gold rise in value.

Hopefully though 2026 gonna be a good year for bitcoin and have an even higher rally.

We have been seeing such bold statements for a long time. We have seen statements like Bitcoin will reach $150K this year, which hasn't happened and is unlikely to happen, as there are only three more days left. We have even seen a statement from a world-renowned higher IQ holder who predicted that Bitcoin would reach $ 200,000 in 90 days. I am not sure about the exact price he expected, but he did something like that. These prediction proves how confident people are with Bitcoin. These predictions do not mean the price will actually reach its target. It's just proof of confidence.

[laspol65]

Yes, since 2024 was the halving year and 2025 saw a bull market, which is proven, and in October we saw the highest Bitcoin price of $126K. But if you compare it to the 2021 bull market, the all-time high Bitcoin price was $69K, and the new Bitcoin price record in 2025 was $126K. And in the meantime, many Bitcoin prices have corrected and investors have taken the opportunity to buy, so there is definitely a possibility of Bitcoin price correction after the bull market. After this correction, there will be an opportunity to invest, so there will be enough opportunity to hold Bitcoin in 2026.

Don't trust any bold statement, any prediction, and any influencers. They as human can be wrong with predictions and all models are basically inaccurate so even they want to make right predictions, they simply can not do that.

Additionally, they can just manipulate the crowd thinking and actions for their personal benefits, and if you believe them, you will be manipulated by those people from thinking, emotion to actions.

These prediction proves how confident people are with Bitcoin. These predictions do not mean the price will actually reach its target. It's just proof of confidence.

Luckily, if people in the crowd understood this manipulative game from market makers and manipulators, they can take advantage of manipulative attempts from influencers. We know another thing, the trend is the friend so if we are experienced enough, we can take advantage of the trendy manipulative game. Otherwise, let's do something even simpler, by buying, holding bitcoins a long time, we will not have to mind about any manipulative game and any influencer.

Buying and holding bitcoins is our responsibiity, the rest is Bitcoin responsibility to work for us.

It's already happening right now, Raoul Paul for example predicted that Bitcoin will reach 1 million dollars as we head into 2026 and that's pretty hard to believe because 2026 could be where Bitcoin will have to create a new bottom if history repeats, any bounce from here will get trapped again around 102k or 106max and we will head down.

From my own side it's not looking good for the market sentiment, we are already in a bear market and many people don't want to believe it, the bold statement have always pop on the internet, it's left for investors to either chose to believe in predictions and learn how to read their own chart and believe what the chart is telling them.

Of course everyone can predict what they like, including speculating that Bitcoin will hit $1m for all I care, the most important thing is to have a slice of Bitcoin in your portfolio and HODL for a Long period of time. Because Bitcoin will definitely hit those speculated price in the future even if it's not possible as soon as possible. There was a time Bitcoin was speculated to hit $100k and people doubted it 10 years ago but look where we are today, Bitcoin has even hit $126k and fell, so we should try as much as possible to buy what we can afford and stop thinking about Bitcoin price because it will certainly hit $500k just with a Matter of Time.

If you are the type of person to get swayed by someone loud or talks so much then you definitely need some preparation but as someone like me that has been in this game for too long, I would say that no matter how prepared you are, the volatility of the bitcoin market is going to be the one that matters the most and that can never be predicted by anyone no matter how much believable whatever they are saying, I say that most of the people that will be talking about bitcoin anyway is probably going to spread FUD or promote shitcoins anyway so I see no reason to listen to them, instead look at what the market does and analyze it and if you cannot do that then probably just buy bitcoin and continue hodling and wait until the value of your bitcoin doubles or triples.
