Dragonfly partner Haseeb Qureshi has released his 2026 predictions for cryptocurrency and AI trends. He forecasts Bitcoin could surpass $150,000 by year-end, though its dominance may decline. Ethereum and Solana are expected to maintain strong performance, while several 'Fintech public chains' may underperform. At least one major tech company is anticipated to launch or acquire a crypto wallet, and more Fortune 100 companies are likely to adopt blockchain, potentially benefiting Avalanche and OP ecosystems.
In the DeFi sector, Qureshi predicts consolidation around three leading perpetual DEX platforms, with stock perpetual trading possibly exceeding 20% of the market. He also warns of potential insider trading scandals within DeFi. For stablecoins, total supply might grow by 60%, with USDT's share dropping to about 55%, and stablecoin card services could see a 1000% increase.
On the regulatory front, the Clarity Act is expected to pass in 2026. Prediction markets are set to expand robustly, and AI will be increasingly applied in development and security, potentially leading to more security incidents but with reduced individual losses.
