BTC4,28%
SOL5,76%

BlockBeats News, December 20 — Galaxy Research released its annual forecast for 2026, stating that Bitcoin’s market volatility in 2026 will be too high to predict accurately, but the possibility of Bitcoin reaching a new all-time high in 2026 remains, with expectations to reach $250,000 by the end of 2027. Other major predictions include: · Stablecoin trading volume may surpass the US ACH system in 2026; · The Solana ecosystem may continue to expand, with enterprise-grade public chains moving from testing to real settlement; · The US market may see more crypto ETFs and institutional capital inflows; · On-chain payments combining DeFi, tokenized assets, and AI will further develop, seen as a key driver for the next phase of crypto infrastructure evolution.
