The year-end is here, and so is the trend across the crypto market, especially for BTC. Bitcoin tokens have surged over the last 24 hours. They are anticipated to carry forward the momentum in 2026. Estimates for the longer term are bullish as well, with the flagship token likely to reclaim its ATH by the end of 2026.
BTC Breaches $90k
BTC has surpassed the $90,000 milestone by climbing as high as $90,023.28 over the last 24 hours. This is a surge of 2.74% during the said timeline. It comes after the token was seen struggling on the price chart between $87,000 and $88,000. The market cap has crossed $1.79 trillion, up by 2.56%, following the 93.17% jump in the 24-hour trading volume.
BTC price has surged at a time when overall sentiments are bearish, and the FGI is 24 points. The last 30 days were mostly red, considering only 47% were green days. The 14-Day RSI is neutral at 44.99 points. The 50-Day SMA and the 200-Day SMA stand at $91,837 and $100,619, respectively.
BTC slipped heavily from October 2025 to November 2025. The trend remains attributed to the tariff policy, which triggered inflation concerns among investors. Nevertheless, the token found a ranged movement from November to December 2025.
Bitcoin in 2026
The ongoing bullish momentum is likely to be carried forward in the next year. BTC price prediction estimates the token to soar by 3.55% in the next 1 month and by 16.99% in the next 3 months. This would take its value to around $91,413 and $103,282, applicable in the same order.
Michael Saylor recently noted BTC reaching $90k. His post on social media triggered speculation that this could be a time to buy the token instead of selling it. Suffice it to say, the year 2026 is expected to be a year of turnaround for BTC. It is still recommended to do thorough research and risk assessment before crypto investments.
Longer Term BTC Prediction
Slightly beyond the first 3 months of 2026, BTC is forecasted to reclaim the ATH of $126,198.07, which was last noted on October 07, 2025. Bitcoin could reach the spot by the end of 2026, or as early as the middle of the year.
Reclaiming the ATH could then pave the way for the key milestone of $150k, depending on micro and macro factors, including, but not limited to, inflation, employment data, and trade conditions.
