🚥Galaxy's New Year Predictions: Bitcoin Slowly Approaching $250,000, Solana Inflation Reduction Plan to be Withdrawn
Galaxy released its 2026 crypto industry predictions, highlighting the following:
1️⃣ Bitcoin will reach $250,000 by 2027, with the price slowly approaching that level.
However, due to the wide range of implied options and unstable macroeconomic conditions in 2026, a clear prediction is difficult to make.
2️⃣ Solana's on-chain economy is shifting from meme cycles to revenue-generating businesses, driving the Internet Capital Market (ICM) market capitalization from approximately $750 million to $2 billion.
3️⃣ Solana's inflation reduction plan will fail to pass (SIMD-0411 withdrawn), and Solana's inflation reform will be stalled. Its priority is lower than market structure improvement, and no proposals are expected to pass in 2026.
4️⃣ The US SEC will pave the way for tokenized securities in the DeFi space, enabling legal tokenized securities to be integrated. Formal DeFi rule-making will begin later in 2026.
5️⃣ By the end of 2026, DEX trading volume will account for more than 25% of spot trading volume. More and more traders and market makers will shift to on-chain trading.
