CF Benchmarks has released a report predicting Bitcoin will reach $148,500 by the end of 2026, marking a 20% increase from current levels. The report also anticipates the number of crypto exchange-traded funds (ETFs) will double to 80 by year-end, driven by regulatory clarity and increased institutional demand. Additionally, stablecoins are projected to circulate $500 billion, bolstered by the Genius Act, which has already led to $30 billion in inflows. The report highlights macroeconomic uncertainty and pro-crypto policies under President Donald Trump's administration as significant growth drivers. CF Benchmarks also expects the value of tokenized assets to double within the next 12 months, reflecting a broader trend of increasing adoption and innovation in the crypto sector.
