Bitcoin (BTC) is likely to continue its upward trend next year, according to an analysis.

On the 31st, according to the cryptocurrency specialist media Daily Hodl, renowned cryptocurrency strategist Michael van de Poppe stated, "I believe Bitcoin will surpass $150,000 next year and maintain that level for a certain period," and analyzed that "Bitcoin will enter another expansion phase in 2026." The analyst predicted that the bull market will last for several months next year.

There is also a forecast that the rise will be driven by macroeconomic factors. The analyst added, "Next year, the U.S. labor market will weaken and the likelihood of a recession will increase," and "subsequently, the U.S. money supply will rapidly increase, allowing Bitcoin to sustain its upward momentum."

He continued, "The market could see a 30% correction by the end of the first quarter next year," adding, "This will be very similar to this year."
