Predict Bitcoin’s Big Moves in 2026

Gold and Bitcoin usually move in tandem, but this trend has notably shifted over the last two years. According to BlackRock’s CEO, Bitcoin is considered a “risk-pricing” asset – as risk ascends, commodities rise, but Bitcoin falters, similarly failing in times of inflation. This introduces an intriguing juxtaposition in the financial markets, portraying Bitcoin as a volatile yet absorbing investment choice in different economic scenarios.

Bitcoin’s Projected 2026 Bottom

While the scarcity narrative is driving a rally in silver and gold today, Bitcoin remains weak despite institutional interest. For years, it was believed that Bitcoin’s supply would inevitably surpass demand following halving events. After 2021, strong demand from ETFs and treasury companies was expected to push Bitcoin to new peaks in a weakening dollar environment.

Large corporations and ETFs now hold significantly more Bitcoin than exchanges do. Strategy alone holds over 700,000 out of a maximum supply of 21 million, with a substantial portion of Bitcoin irretrievably lost – from Satoshi’s own holdings to forgotten wallets.

Failing to protect against inflation, Bitcoin is now languishing even as the Fed gradually lowers rates in a risk-laden environment. Geopolitical tensions subside, tariff wars begin, and each development pulls Bitcoin downward. Perhaps the historical data suggesting a decline in 2026 will come true – only time will tell.

An analyst under the pseudonym CryptoCon shared a chart showing pockets of intense liquidity closely aligned with Bear Bands. The chart indicates potential first dip and cycle bottom levels for Bitcoin.

The initial dip is likely between $69,000 and $74,000, with the cycle bottom between $27,000 and $32,000. Since 2022, when the previous peak’s support rule was violated, deeper troughs below $69,000 are being anticipated by analysts. Roman Trading is more lenient, predicting the cycle bottom around $56,000.

What if Stocks Decline?

Roman Trading highlighted this issue recently, as did Bob Loukas. Stocks neared their peak but have ceased their ascent. Gold continues to rise while stocks face the threat of initiating a major downward trend. While rising, BTC did not meet expectations and fell when stocks decreased. What if the decline accelerates? Roman Trading suggests starting at $56,000.

Bob commented, “Sentiment hit zero in November, and it’s week 10 for Bitcoin post-bottom. In a bull market, this was a BTD event, and it would be pulling ATHs like stocks now. Reaction remains weak and disconnected from gold’s performance. Should stocks surpass ATHs, this chart may excite bulls. If stocks don’t manage to do this…”

Is the AI replacement wave overestimated? Barclays: Only 20% of core workplace skills can be highly replicated, but amplification effects are quietly spreading

The impact of AI on the workforce is milder, yet more profound than previously imagined. Barclays' latest research dispels the panic of a "replacement wave"—only about 20% of core professional skills can truly be replicated by AI, but its "amplification effect" permeates almost every corner of every profession. What is more concerning is that the demand for AI skills is spreading from tech positions to management roles, and the rise of physical AI could even make human professional skills a new, scalable form of intellectual property.
