Just scrolling through some old Bitcoin price predictions from 2024 and honestly, it's wild how off most of them were. Everyone was calling for $150K, $200K, some even $1M by now. ARK Invest was pretty confident about $124K minimum, technical analysts were eyeing $130-140K ranges, and PlanB's Stock-to-Flow model had us thinking we'd see half a million easy. But here we are in 2026 and BTC is sitting around $77K, nowhere near those targets. The ATH we actually hit was $126K, which came close to some predictions but then everything pulled back hard. I guess the lesson here is that even with all the institutional adoption talk, Bitcoin ETF inflows, and that whole Trump pro-crypto narrative, the market had other plans. The 2024 halving did happen as expected, but the supply squeeze didn't translate into the price explosion everyone predicted. Makes you think about how many variables actually move the needle - regulatory shifts, macro conditions, black swan events. Anyway, curious to see what 2025-26 actually brings compared to what the forecasters said back then.
