Bitcoin Company Founder Predicts BTC Could Surpass $125,000 in 2026
Source: CryptoNewsNet Original Title: Bitcoin Company Founder Predicts the Level the BTC Price Will Reach in 2026 Original Link: Swan Bitcoin CEO and founder Cory Klippsten has stated that he expects Bitcoin (BTC) to surpass the $125,000 mark in 2026, reaching an all-time high.
Appearing on a major financial media program, Klippsten discussed recent developments in the cryptocurrency market and Bitcoin’s future price movements. Recalling that Bitcoin has recently traded between $85,000 and $91,000, Klippsten painted a rather optimistic picture for the coming year.
Klippsten, referring to Bitcoin’s historical four-year cycles where it peaked in 2013, 2017, and 2021, stated that the failure of the expected “astronomical” rise in 2025 to materialize could actually be a positive sign. Unlike the sharp declines that followed major surges in the past, Klippsten argued that this time, institutional and government-level demand is supporting the market.
Klippsten stated, “Bitcoin adoption is a one-way street; once people get in, they usually don’t get out. Therefore, I see a more than 50% chance of seeing a new record in 2026 and expect the price to rise above $125,000.”
The discussion also covered some mining companies shifting their focus towards artificial intelligence (AI) and high-performance computing (HPC). Klippsten argued that this shift in miners’ focus would not negatively impact the security or price of the Bitcoin network. Stating that the mining sector is always dynamic, the CEO said, “Hash rate and mining costs are indicators that follow the price. This only creates new opportunities in the market.”
