$50K or $250K? Top crypto companies are divided on Bitcoin's trajectory in 2026

2026 could mark the clearest break yet from everything investors thought they understood about Bitcoin cycles.
For more than a decade, markets have leaned on the four-year halving model to predict peaks, crashes and recoveries.
