Bitcoin will reach a new high in 2026, with the halving effect significantly weakened. The appearance of 10.11 has reduced the likelihood of a major market crash.
Cryptocurrency investment firms and index fund management institutions like Bitwise believe that even though the past two months have been sluggish, Bitcoin will hit a new all-time high again in 2026.
CEO Matt Hougan stated that Bitcoin historically follows a four-year cycle, with three years of significant growth followed by a deep correction year. According to this cycle, 2026 should be a correction year. But we believe this will n

On December 8, despite the market seemingly having priced in another Fed rate cut and pushing the U.S. stock market close to record highs last Friday, the real driving force for the bull market in stocks and other risk assets from this week’s Fed policy meeting may not come from interest rates. After quietly halting quantitative tightening, how the Fed manages its massive balance sheet—and whether it injects new liquidity into the market—is key.
Bank of America Global's rates strategy team said last Friday that they expect the Fed to announce this week that, starting in January, it will purcha

On December 5, JPMorgan analysts stated that, regarding Bitcoin’s recent price movements, the resilience of MicroStrategy (stock code MSTR) is more important than miner activity.
