Since the start of the trading year, the Bitcoin price has declined by roughly 6%, a major disappointment for investors who had expected new all-time highs. While many analysts remain skeptical about the market’s prospects for the coming year, Mow has offered a far more optimistic assessment of the current situation.
“2025 was the bear market,” the crypto expert said while summarizing the year. He is not alone in this view. Analyst PlanC previously expressed a similar opinion, writing on X: “If you made it through 2025, then you made it through the bear market.”
PlanC bases his argument on the fact that Bitcoin has historically never recorded two consecutive losing years. According to this logic, 2026 should once again deliver positive price performance. Samson Mow, however, goes much further, stating: “A ten-year bull market lies ahead.”
If this scenario plays out, the Bitcoin price would rise almost every year through 2035. Earlier, in August, Mow drew attention with a provocative statement: “Against Bitcoin, all assets go to zero.” In his view, not only altcoins but also stocks, real estate, and even gold will lose value over the long term when measured in BTC.
Expectations for new price records in 2026 are also shared by CoinShares analyst Matthew Kimmell. In his conservative scenario, he points to a valuation floor for Bitcoin around $140,000, suggesting that the market could finally break out of its prolonged phase of uncertainty next year.
