Bernstein Analysts Say Bitcoin Price Has Bottomed, Here’s Where It’s Headed

Bernstein analysts remain bullish on Bitcoin’s price, maintaining their year-end optimistic outlook. The analysts have confirmed that Bitcoin has officially reached its market bottom , with its price at around $60,000, the lowest since its all-time high above $126,000 in October 2026. If this is true, it could mean the prolonged BTC bear market has ended, and the market is heading upwards from here. Bernstein Confirms Bitcoin Price Bottom And Next Target In a Tuesday note to clients, Bernstein analysts doubled down on their year-end price target of $150,000 for Bitcoin. Their reiteration of this bullish outlook comes as the world’s largest cryptocurrency faces major headwinds in its ongoing bear market. Recently, the Bitcoin price dropped below $70,000 once again amid increased geopolitical uncertainty and state-level selling pressure. Market volatility resurfaced after President Donald Trump pushed to end the US-Iran war within weeks, and the Bhutan government sold more than 519 BTC for approximately $36.7 million. Despite these bearish developments pushing the price lower, Bernstein analysts believe that Bitcoin’s move from here on out could be a slow but steady recovery, followed by a rebound toward a new all-time high. This isn’t the first time they have made such a prediction. Earlier in January, they stated that BTC had hit a price floor at $80,000 and might be on its way to a $150,000 target. Importantly, the analysts confirmed again in their recent note that the Bitcoin price has officially reached its market bottom this cycle. This comes after the cryptocurrency plunged from $90,000 to $60,000 in early February , marking its lowest level since its cycle top last year. This price floor is also approximately 47% below the cryptocurrency’s all-time high levels. Major factors had fueled this crash, including the hawkish FED Chair nomination of Kevin Warsh by Trump in January 2026, which triggered a risk-off sell-off in the crypto market. Moreover, at the time, the market had recorded massive outflows in Bitcoin Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs) worth billions of dollars. Heightened tensions in the Middle East, as well as the oil shock , had also fueled BTC’s decline to this claimed $60,000 price bottom. Why They Believe BTC Could Hit $150,000 This Year Three major bullish catalysts are driving Bernstein’s optimistic Bitcoin prediction this cycle. The first is the continuous corporate accumulation by the business intelligence company and BTC treasury Strategy (MSTR). Notably, Strategy has continued to buy Bitcoin despite its ongoing volatility and declining price action. The firm now holds 3.6% of Bitcoin’s total supply, valued at roughly $53.5 billion, after its latest purchase of 1,031 BTC for $76.6 million this March. Another major reason Bernstein believes BTC could hit a new ATH this year is attributed to its ETF. Analysts at the firm suggest that ETF inflows could remain strong despite market volatility, thereby continuing to increase demand for BTC. Over the past week, Bitcoin ETFs have already attracted significant inflows , driven largely by wealth managers, pension funds, sovereign entities, and other major institutional investors. The final reason mentioned is the strong conviction of long-term BTC holders. Notably, 60% of Bitcoin’s total supply has been held by inactive wallets for more than 1 year. This behavior reflects long-term holding as investors continue to see the cryptocurrency as a strategic allocation and a store of value.

Ripple set to unlock 1 billion XRP on April 1, 2026

Ripple Labs is scheduled to unlock 1 billion XRP on April 1, continuing its long-standing escrow release program that remains a focal point for market participants assessing potential supply pressure. At current prices, with XRP trading near $1.37, the upcoming unlock represents roughly $1.37 billion in value. The token has declined about 3.2% over the past 24 hours and nearly 5% over the past week, reflecting a period of short-term weakness ahead of the scheduled release. XRP 1-week price chart. Source: Finbold Ripple escrow unlock Ripple’s escrow system, however, is structured to prevent abrupt supply shocks. While 1 billion XRP is unlocked each month, a significant majority, typically between 70% and 80% is returned to escrow through new contracts. The remaining portion, generally in the range of 200 million to 300 million XRP, is deployed for operational purposes, including institutional sales and ecosystem development. As a result, the net increase in circulating supply is materially lower than the headline figure suggests. This controlled release mechanism has historically limited the direct market impact of these events, even as they continue to influence short-term sentiment. XRP Ledger The XRP Ledger has a total supply just under 100 billion tokens, with around 61.3 billion currently in circulation. That positions XRP among the largest digital assets, supported by an $84 billion market cap and steady trading volume. That scale is also why these monthly unlocks continue to draw attention. While they are routine, their impact tends to depend on broader market conditions. In periods of softer price action, even a controlled release can weigh on sentiment. So while the April 1 unlock represents roughly $1.37 billion at current prices, the actual impact is likely to be more limited. Much of the XRP will be re-locked, leaving the market to focus on how well demand can absorb the portion that does circulate.

‘Active Treasury’ is a dangerous misnomer that must not be ignored

The term "Active Treasury" misleads everyone. Digital asset treasuries chasing yield via staking and tokens become operators, not holders, demanding fund-grade governance or regulatory reclassification.
