Recently, many financial institutions and industry experts have been discussing the outlook for Bitcoin in 2026. I compiled their predicted figures, and it's quite interesting.
From a conservative perspective, Standard Chartered and Bernstein, two traditional financial institutions, both forecast $150,000; JPMorgan's estimate is slightly more aggressive, believing it could reach $170,000.
Moving higher, Ripple's Garlinghouse predicts $180,000; Fundstrat co-founder Tom Lee and BitMEX founder Arthur Hayes both see the possibility of exceeding $200,000.
The most optimistic camp is quite intriguing—Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson, "Rich Dad Poor Dad" author Robert Kiyosaki, along with well-known crypto investment bank Galaxy Digital, all predict $250,000 or above.
Looking at these forecasts, there is both rational analysis from traditional finance and market insights from seasoned crypto experts. With a range from $150K to over $250K, who do you think has the more reliable judgment?

250K I can't afford to gamble, but so many people are shouting about it, I feel like I should get on board.

150k to 250k? Bro, that's almost a double range. Anyone who says anything is possible, and also impossible. I bet on Arthur, that guy has always been daring to say and do.

To be honest, these predictions are way too exaggerated; the range from 150 to 250 is completely unreasonable.

Honestly, these people's predictions are too broad, it feels like they're just gambling.

Honestly, I don't believe any of these predicted numbers lol. The traditional finance folks were criticizing Bitcoin just two years ago, and now they're trying to jump on the bandwagon. It's really funny.

The price difference between 150 and 250... it's obvious who is scamming the newbies.

A range from 150K to 250K is so broad; frankly, it's all gambling, and no one truly dares to guarantee it.
