What next for Bitcoin?
Several analysts, including those from Standard Chartered, suggest Bitcoin could hit a bottom of $50,000 due to institutional capitulation. However, high trading volumes and net institutional inflows for at least three consecutive days could cause a reclamation of $68,000.
The likes of Grayscale and Bitwise suggest that Bitcoin now has the features of a mature asset, charting slow bullish trends in place of the historical four-year cycle.
Upcoming events that are expected to positively impact the price of Bitcoin include the passage of the CLARITY Act, the March 2026 mining of the 20 millionth BTC, and the appointment of Kevin Warsh as the new Federal Reserve Chair.
