Polymarket pundits are giving just a 15% chance that Bitcoin will reclaim $120,000 in 2026, while veteran trader Peter Brandt said he doesn’t expect a new high until Q2 2027.
It could be more than a year before Bitcoin regains its all-time high of $126,100, recorded in October last year, according to veteran trader Peter Brandt.
“I do not see a new price high in 2026,” Brandt told Cointelegraph. “Not until maybe the second quarter of 2027,” he said, though he also acknowledged that “this is all guesswork.”
Pundits on the crypto prediction platform Polymarket are similarly pessimistic, giving just a 15% chance that Bitcoin will reclaim $120,000 in 2026.
