The market puts this at about a 2% chance — almost no chance.
No money — just record your call and see if you were right. Yes is at 2% right now.
Despite the 98% No odds, the real story is that Bitcoin has been stuck in a prolonged crypto winter for years, and the market sees virtually no chance of a sudden breakout to new all-time highs within the next two months, given the lack of bullish catalysts and the depth of the bearish trend.
What's driving it
- • Persistent bearish sentiment, as highlighted by headlines questioning whether the bottom is in or more pain is coming (Zprávy Kurzy.cz, Jul 10).
- • A technical warning signal: Bitcoin has crossed 200 days of a bearish indicator that investors cannot ignore (thestreet.com, Jul 9).
- • The ongoing 'crypto winter' narrative, with Fidelity detailing factors that could end it but none having materialized yet (eciks.org, Jul 9).
The case for YES
- • A sudden regulatory shift, such as a US spot Bitcoin ETF approval for a major index, could ignite a massive rally that pushes prices past the previous all-time high before September 30.
- • If global macroeconomic conditions deteriorate and Bitcoin is viewed as a safe haven or inflation hedge, a flight to safety could drive a parabolic move, though this is speculative.
The case for NO
- • Bitcoin's price remains far below its 2021 all-time high, and with only two months remaining, the required ~100%+ price increase is without historical precedent for such a short period.
- • The prolonged 200-day bearish signal and the lack of any major positive catalyst make a new high extremely unlikely within the timeframe.
- • Market odds reflect near-certainty of No, indicating that traders see no credible path to a new ATH by September 30.
What to watch
- • The next Federal Reserve interest rate decision (likely September 2026) could provide a macro catalyst; a rate cut would be bullish for Bitcoin and could increase Yes odds.
- • Any announcement of a major corporation or sovereign wealth fund adding Bitcoin to its balance sheet could quickly shift sentiment, but no such event is currently scheduled.
- • The release of a positive Fidelity report on factors ending crypto winter (eciks.org, Jul 9) could generate short-term optimism, but it lacks a specific date.

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 ≈ 96% 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.

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).

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
