Will Bitcoin be above $149999.99 by Aug 31, 2026 at 11:59PM ET?
🗂 Part of event: When will Bitcoin hit $150k? →💡 What the odds say
The market puts this at about a 1% chance — almost no chance.
No money — just record your call and see if you were right. Yes is at 1% right now.
Bitcoin is trading near $65,000, only 43% of the way to the $150,000 target with just 36 days left, making a Yes outcome virtually impossible without a parabolic price surge that no headline suggests.
📊 Base rate: Since 2010, Bitcoin has never risen more than 130% in a single month; the required 130%+ gain from current levels to $150,000 in 36 days has no historical precedent.
What's driving it
- • The market prices a 1% chance because Bitcoin is near $65,000 and the target is $150,000, more than double the all-time high (CoinDesk, Jul 10).
- • Recent headlines focus on resistance at $65,000–$70,000, with terms like 'breakout' aimed at levels far below the contract threshold (FXStreet, Jul 10; CryptoPotato, Jul 10).
- • No headline mentions a catalyst for a 130%+ price surge in six weeks; the narrative is about recovery, not a moonshot.
The case for YES
- • A sudden macroeconomic shock, such as a U.S. dollar collapse or unprecedented institutional buying, could force Bitcoin to $150,000 rapidly, though no such event is discussed in recent headlines.
- • If a major nation announces Bitcoin as legal tender or a sovereign wealth fund begins accumulating aggressively, the price could spike beyond historical patterns.
- • A severe global banking crisis could drive a flight to hard assets, pushing Bitcoin to levels far above current all-time highs within weeks.
The case for NO
- • Bitcoin is roughly $65,000, meaning it needs a 130% gain in 36 days, a feat never accomplished in any 36-day period in its history.
- • Current technical and fundamental analysis points to a struggle to break $70,000, let alone $150,000 (CoinDesk, Jul 10; FXLeaders, Jul 10).
- • Options implied volatility and futures term structure do not indicate any probability of a move above $150,000 by late August.
What to watch
- • Monthly close on July 31, 2026: if Bitcoin fails to hold above $65,000, the odds of a rally to $150,000 will drop further (direction: No).
- • Federal Reserve interest-rate meeting on July 29, 2026: a surprise rate cut could boost risk assets moderately, but still insufficient for a 130% move (direction: slightly Yes, but negligible).
- • U.S. CPI data release on August 12, 2026: a dramatically low inflation print might spark a risk-on rally, but not enough to close the gap to $150,000 (direction: slightly Yes, but negligible).

Which price will Bitcoin hit in 2026?
The field is overwhelmingly concentrated on Bitcoin reaching $65k and $75k in 2026, both at 99%, reflecting the current price near $64k and a strong bullish consensus. The single biggest recent shift is the surge in odds for $65k to near certainty as Bitcoin approached that level, confirmed by the July 20 headline 'Bitcoin price hits $65K wall'.

ETH Up or Down - Daily
The market is pricing an 84% chance of an ETH daily up move, but the recent headlines paint a picture of extreme bearish sentiment and technical weakness, suggesting the odds may be overconfident in a short-term bounce.
Yes ≈ 94% chance
Which price will Bitcoin hit in July?
The market is effectively settled: with Bitcoin trading above $65,000 as of July 26 and only five days left in July, the 98% odds for $65,000 reflect a near-certain outcome rather than a speculative bet, leaving no room for the other two price levels.

Which price will Solana hit in July?
The $70 target leads at 30%, but the field is far from decided; the single largest recent shift appears to be the mixed impact of a record stablecoin market cap and a $1.65M exploit on the same day (July 20), which may have widened the probability spread.

Will Bitcoin to cross $100,000 USD again in 2026?
Despite bullish predictions for a September turnaround, Bitcoin's price languishes near $63k, far from $100k, and a death cross in March has dampened hopes for a 2026 recovery. The market assigns only a 25% chance, reflecting skepticism that any near-term catalyst can fuel a 58% rally.
Yes ≈ 25% chance
What will be the price of Bitcoin at the end of 2026?
The field is heavily concentrated in the $60k–$90k range (81% combined), with the leading $60k–$75k bracket at 53% — a bet that Bitcoin's bear market bottoms and recovers modestly by year-end, but does not break out above $105k (only 6%). The biggest recent shift is the 53% leader absorbing share from the $75k–$90k and below-$60k bins, likely driven by the July 18 report of massive call spreads targeting $72,000 around the Fed meeting (CoinDesk, Jul 18) and the July 24 analysis suggesting the bear market may end before the four-year cycle predicts (Bitcoin Foundation, Jul 24).
