Grayscale analysts are tipping a crypto market resurgence, with demand surging enough to drive Bitcoin to a new all-time high within the first half of 2026.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

The asset manager made the prediction as part of a 2026 outlook report published<\/a> on Monday, which also explored ten key investing themes for the year.<\/p>\n

Commenting on Bitcoin (BTC<\/a>), Grayscale said the price will skyrocket in H1 2026, on the back of increased macro demand for alternative value stores and improved regulatory clarity in the US.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The firm argued that this will also coincide with the end of the supposed Bitcoin four-year cycle<\/a>:<\/p>\n

\u201cWe expect rising valuations in 2026 and the end of the so-called \u2018four-year cycle,\u2019 or the theory that crypto market direction follows a recurring four-year pattern. Bitcoin\u2019s price will likely reach a new all-time high in the first half of the year, in our view.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

In terms of the macro, the asset manager argues that fiat currencies are facing rising debasement risks due to \u201crising public sector debt and its potential implications for inflation over time.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAs long as the risk of fiat currency debasement keeps rising, portfolio demand for Bitcoin and Ether will likely continue rising as well, in our view,\u201d the company said.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Regulation is paving the way for more growth\u00a0<\/h2>\n

Commenting on the regulatory climate, Grayscale said there has been a sharp change in tune in the US over the past couple of years.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The firm pointed to a number of cases dropped<\/a> against crypto firms, the approval of spot-Bitcoin ETFs paving the way for other new products<\/a> to hit the market, and the passing of the GENIUS Act.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cIn 2024, Bitcoin and Ether spot ETPs came to market. In 2025, Congress passed the GENIUS Act on stablecoins and regulators shifted their approach toward crypto, working with the industry to provide clear guidance while continuing to focus on consumer protection and financial stability,\u201d Grayscale said, adding:<\/p>\n

\u201cIn 2026, Grayscale expects Congress to pass bipartisan crypto market structure legislation, which will likely cement blockchain-based finance in U.S. capital markets and facilitate continued institutional investment.\u201d\u00a0<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
