tldr; Bitcoin reached a new all-time high of $126,198 in October 2025 but failed to sustain momentum, dropping to $86,784 by year-end. Predictions of $200K to $250K from experts like Arthur Hayes, Robert Kiyosaki, and Tom Lee fell short due to factors like limited ETF inflows, macroeconomic uncertainty, and sell-offs. Despite increased institutional interest and adoption, Bitcoin’s performance highlighted the gap between optimistic forecasts and market realities, emphasizing the challenges of predicting straight-line growth.

My prediction was $130k-$170k and even that was too high. So now down to $43k, lets see how far off am I.

Anyone who tells you that they can predict the price of a speculative asset is lying to you. You are better off asking an 8 ball instead of these so-called experts

I think only Peter Brandt was the closest, he said 125 to whatever, and it went to 126 lol, he was pretty close last cycle as well.

All predictions are pulled out of the ass of the prognosticator. Frankly any price predictions should be a rule violation in crypto subs, they are noise of no value.

Keep packing those bags for the 2029 run.

No one could have predicted the single largest liquidity drain when a president launches his own meme coin, and then his wife also launches own meme coin. Double drainage. I’m not saying that they have done anything wrong but this left liquidity dry and Bitcoin and other alts unable to move any higher.
The same way nobody could have predicted metals and RAM going 4x their prices within months.

If only the accounts here got paid like these “specialists” do. More correct predictions here than the same talking heads that are always wrong.

„Prediction specialists”
Well, hate to tell ya, but in a bull market everyone can be a specialist for predicting that everything is going to go up.
Its a bit harder being the guy who calls the top for what it is

After a decade of being wrong, Peter Schiff finally had his year!
Lets hope 2026 is business as usual.

Exactly. Anyone who says they know anything- unless they’re an actual whale- is lying for clicks. They’ll be right sometimes, but only by chance.
