Bernstein analysts predict a prolonged bull market for cryptocurrencies that may last until 2027, with $BTC reaching $150,000–$200,000 over the year. According to The Block, this cycle is different from previous ones as it is driven by institutional support rather than retail speculation. The growth of spot Bitcoin ETFs, which have gathered over $150 billion in assets, including $84 billion in BlackRock IBIT, confirms the interest of large investors.
Ethereum, Solana, and DeFi tokens are expected to be key drivers of the next growth phase. Bernstein also forecasts an increase in the market capitalization of stablecoins, particularly USDC, to $99 billion in 2026 and $173 billion in 2027, thanks to partnerships with banks and the development of Circle's Arc blockchain. Regulatory clarity in the US through the GENIUS and CLARITY laws will promote the development of platforms such as Coinbase and Robinhood.
Despite the recent cooling of prices, analysts remain optimistic, pointing to the support of US policy and the integration of blockchain into traditional finance. Want to know more? Subscribe to #MiningUpdates
