Now, 60% of people think that Bitcoin will not reach $300,000 by the end of 2026 – that’s this line, one and a half years from now. So, by the end of next year, this is the $300,000 point. Sixty percent of people think we’re not going to get there. In my opinion, we will.
PlanB said his view is contrarian, noting that 60% of people do not expect bitcoin to reach $300,000 by the end of 2026. He pointed to his stock-to-flow model, which he described as a rough scarcity-based model with an average target above that level. He also cited bitcoin's price sitting above all the major realized-price cohorts, which he called classic bull market behavior with no bear market warning signs.
