The world’s first cryptocurrency is being tipped for an unprecedented surge. This time, Bitcoin could break through every known ceiling and soar to an astonishing $200,000. According to analysts at Bernstein, such a record could be achieved by early 2026.

For now, the crypto landscape already looks bullish. Bitcoin’s current development phase features key structural advantages, such as growing government support, swift stablecoin adoption, and the tokenization of real-world assets (RWAs). Together, these forces are driving a rally in digital currencies, with Bitcoin leading the way.

Bernstein also outlined several factors reinforcing Bitcoin's ongoing bull cycle. They include institutional growth through corporate treasuries and new investment products, a more constructive regulatory stance in the United States, and the growing influence of crypto giants, such as Circle, Coinbase, and Robinhood.

In addition, the firm highlighted the vast potential of blockchain technology in powering integrated financial tools with crypto-based settlements. According to analysts, the return of offshore liquidity to US markets and the development of regulated crypto derivatives platforms are further strengthening the industry's trajectory.

Earlier, experts at CryptoQuant noted that the US dollar index (DXY) had plummeted to its lowest level in two decades. They suggested that this could spark a fresh rally in Bitcoin.
