Recently, industry insiders have revealed that a well-known asset management firm has made a series of predictions about the direction of the crypto market in 2026. These viewpoints have sparked heated discussions within the industry.
Regarding Bitcoin, the forecast suggests that this cycle may break the pattern observed over the past four years and is likely to reach new all-time highs. This means investors need to reevaluate traditional cycle theories. Meanwhile, Bitcoin's overall volatility exhibits an interesting phenomenon—it is expected to be lower than that of tech giant NVIDIA, reflecting a trend toward relative stability as an asset.
In terms of institutional funds, the role of ETFs is becoming increasingly crucial. The prediction indicates that the demand pressure for ETFs on the three major cryptocurrencies—Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana—will surpass the growth rate of new supply on these networks. This suggests that demand-side growth may outpace supply, providing price support. This trend also hints at traditional financial institutions continuing to increase their allocation to crypto assets.

Breaking four-year patterns? How many people will cut loss before the historical new high...
---
BTC fluctuation is more stable than Nvidia? This sounds nice but I'm still a bit skeptical
---
ETF buying pressure exceeds new supply, sounds like it's going to rise, but the question is, will institutions really catch a falling knife 24/7?
---
More rumors and predictions, anyway, I'm just hodl, let's see how 2026 plays out
---
It's funny how these institutions predicted last year and now they change their tune?
---
The logic of demand exceeding supply can be made up any year, the key is whether real money is being thrown in
---
Is there a trend of BTC stabilizing? Then why does it still jump up and down when I watch the market...
---
Is ETF increasing really a true signal or just another excuse for playing people for suckers, anyway, it will all drop by then
---
All three major coins are going to da moon, right? I'm waiting to see if Solana can survive past 2026.

Damn, is the four-year pattern about to be broken again? Every time it's said like this, what happens?
ETF buying pressure exceeds new supply, sounds good, but I'm afraid it's just paper talk.
Wait, Bitcoin's fluctuation is smaller than Nvidia's? How is that possible, I don't believe it.
I don't know if it can rise in 26 years, I'll just focus on making money now.
These institutional predictions are really uncertain, but I’ll keep holding on.

Breaking a four-year cycle... Is that true? Anyway, I don't believe the institutions' rhetoric, they said the same thing last year.
ETF buying pressure surpassing supply growth sounds very tempting, but in the end, when it’s time to sell off, everyone runs.
Wait, Bitcoin's volatility is actually lower than Nvidia's? That’s pretty stable.
Institutions are accumulating chips, while we ordinary folks are still here watching predictions.
No one can be sure about what will happen in 2026, so I’ll just hold on for now.

2026 breaking the four-year cycle? Alright, let's wait and see what new stories the crypto circle is going to hype up next.
ETF buying pressure exceeds supply growth rate, sounds good, but we need to see if institutions are really putting real money into it.
Volatility lower than Nvidia? Now that's true stability, respect.

Breaking the four-year cycle? It sounds hard not to be tempted, but don’t forget, we said the same thing last time.
Wait, Bitcoin’s volatility is even smaller than Nvidia’s? That’s so boring, can we still call it a coin? Haha
ETF buying pressure surpasses new supply, in simple terms, it’s institutions taking over, and us retail investors just waiting to be cut.
Really? We have to wait until 2026? I want to get on board right now.
It’s that same “traditional finance acceptance” argument, every cycle it’s the same, and the result is...
