Bitcoin 2026 [LIVE] Updates : Stock Market, Gold And Silver Price, Crypto News

If history repeats, Bitcoin could reach $29K by October 2026. Over the past 8 years, Bitcoin saw major tops every 4 years—in 2017, 2021, and 2025. The current cycle down began in October 2025, with past declines lasting about a year and averaging an 80% drop. Based on these patterns, the present bear phase may end by October 2026, setting the stage for the next upward move.

2025 transformed crypto forever. Bitcoin evolved into a true macro asset, with 1.1M BTC held by institutions and $21B+ flowing into spot ETFs. Stablecoins became “Internet Fiat,” processing $33T annually, surpassing Visa. BNB Chain is dominated by balancing retail and institutional demand, hitting 15–18M daily transactions. Looking ahead, 2026 will be adoption-driven: PayFi wallets, on-chain institutional finance, and prediction markets will lead. Narrative and speculation are out—real infrastructure and adoption are in.

The S&P 500 measured in gold is slipping toward a historic pivot first set in 1929, a level that broke ahead of major market stress in 1973 and 2008. The Beta/Gold ratio, now near 1.54, is rolling over as volatility rises. Bitcoin-to-gold is already declining, often a leading risk signal. Meanwhile, silver looks stretched versus gold and crude, suggesting speculative excess as capital quietly rotates back to gold.
