Bitcoin, Ethereum, Binance Coin, waking up and scrolling through the news almost made me forget—two major pieces of news bombarded the market in succession, causing chaos.

First, analyst Matt Hogan made a bold prediction: Bitcoin will grow 30% annually over the next ten years. It sounds like bragging, but when you do the math, it’s truly shocking—at this rate, Bitcoin’s price will double every 3 years. By 2035, a single BTC could break through $1.4 million. Buying one now could get you a luxury car, by 2025 it could buy a house, and by 2030 it would be equivalent to the valuation of a small company. By 2035, it would be almost like a walking bank. The logic behind this isn’t baseless: the global trend of digital assets, continuous institutional investment, and Bitcoin’s deflationary nature locking in scarcity. These factors stack up, each one a powder keg pushing prices higher.

Before even digesting this prediction, the Bank of Japan threw out a nuclear-level signal. Governor Ueda Haruhiko publicly stated that as long as the economy and prices meet targets, they will continue to raise interest rates. It sounds like routine operation, but the key is Japan. As a major source of global liquidity, if the BOJ really tightens the liquidity faucet, the yen will strengthen, arbitrage funds will be forced to flow back, initially impacting Asian markets, and the volatility in the crypto market will surge accordingly.

2026 looks destined to be an unsettled year. All these signals point in one direction—uncertainty, opportunities, and risks are brewing. What do you think about Bitcoin’s long-term target price? Do you already hold mainstream currencies, or are you planning to adjust your positions? Regarding Ethereum’s latest developments, are you paying attention to opportunities in related ecosystem projects?

BTC-1,54%

ETH-2,95%

BNB-0,84%

$1.4 million? That number makes my ears hurt a bit, but I can't argue with the deflation logic. However, the Bank of Japan's move is really the ultimate. When liquidity tightens, Asia will suffer first, and volatility here will skyrocket. I'm still debating whether to add to my position or not. Feeling overwhelmed by these two pieces of news.

$1.4 million sounds crazy, but I'm more concerned about the recent wave from the Bank of Japan. Liquidity tightening is really no small matter. Is the BTC doubling cycle so stable? It feels a bit taken for granted; the market isn't that linear. Those still willing to go all-in now have really bold guts. Let's wait and see how 2026 unfolds. The perspective of yen appreciation is interesting. The return of arbitrage funds indeed causes volatility, and Asia is the first to be affected. Compared to $1.4 million, I'm more concerned about when the next bear market will come. There's too much false prosperity right now. Five or ten years down the line, who can say for sure? It's better to stay prudent and hold steady, rather than be brainwashed by these big predictions.

ngl the $1.4M BTC prediction sounds like copium but also... the math checks out and that's what scares me. been obsessively checking gas trackers all morning instead of actually planning my portfolio, typical me honestly. if japan really tightens up, that's when bridge fees are gonna be absolutely insane migrating to L2s lol... already prepping my optimization spreadsheet just in case

1.4 million? Laughing and then crying, I'm afraid I won't even be able to buy one by then. When the Bank of Japan raises interest rates, the arbitrage funds will flow back, and the Asian markets are probably going to be hammered hard. Today's little investor diary: seeing the BTC price increase screenshot, I touched my wallet and quietly closed the market app. The mainstream coins are already in hand, now just waiting for 2035 to become a "walking bank," haha. This prediction sounds more uncertain than my luck in trading crypto, but the data is indeed there.

1.4 million dollars? That's a dream that would make you wake up laughing, but the Bank of Japan's move is really brilliant; tightening liquidity directly causes a market crash.
