Happy Thursday!

Bitcoin will lead the charge to new all-time highs in 2026, according to Bitwise’s new yearly preview. Here’s what else they predict will happen.

Ethereum isn’t looking good, so a prominent ETH bear (who made $500K shorting ETH recently) is placing a $1M bet on ETH to go down even more.

Plus, you probably heard about Tempus AI after Nancy Pelosi cashed in big. But this system pinpointed Tempus AI BEFORE it shot up 30% in a single month. And now it's zeroed in on another two AI stocks to own heading into 2026. Want both tickers?

Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana To Hit All-Time Highs In 2026, Bitwise Predicts

Asset management firm Bitwise expects 2026 to be a breakout year for crypto, with Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana all pushing to new all-time highs as institutional forces reshape the market.

In its 2026 Outlook, Bitwise argues the traditional four-year crypto cycle is fading.

Institutional adoption, spot ETF flows, on-chain growth, and a pro-crypto regulatory shift are now more powerful drivers than halving's or leverage-fueled boom–bust cycles.

Bitcoin, the firm says, is on track to become less volatile than mega-cap tech stocks like Nvidia, reflecting a broader, more institutional investor base.

ETFs are accelerating Bitcoin's transition into a mainstream, de-risked asset, and that trend should intensify in 2026.

Ethereum Bear Who Made $500,000 Shorting ETH Now Bets $1 Million Against It

Crypto analyst Taiki Maeda has opened a $1 million short on Ethereum, arguing its recent strength is driven by artificial, incentive-led buying rather than genuine demand.

In his recent podcast, Maeda stated that he entered the ETH short near $3,133, claiming that the altcoin is being propped up by “Digital Asset Treasury” (DAT) buyers, not organic inflows.

He points to a specific entity, BitMine, allegedly purchasing roughly $300 million of ETH weekly, as the key marginal buyer behind ETH’s relative outperformance.

This price-insensitive accumulation is cited as the primary reason ETH has outperformed other altcoins.
