Bitcoin ‘up year’ is 2026, and the four-year cycle is dead: Bitwise
The Bitwise Invest executive admits he “could be wrong” but doesn’t see 2025 as the end of the upside for Bitcoin.
Bitcoin’s price could see significant upside in 2026, bucking the traditional four-year market cycle, according to Bitwise chief investment officer Matt Hougan.
The prediction comes as other analysts are divided on whether Bitcoin (BTC) will stray from its historical pattern or follow the traditional halving cycle and peak in the coming months.
“I bet 2026 is an up year,” Hougan said in an X video on Friday. “I broadly think we’re in for a good few years,” Hougan added.
