2026 Cryptocurrency Market Forecast: Bitcoin Surges to $150,000, DeFi Perpetual Contracts Dominating the Market

【Crypto World】Many professional institutions within the industry are optimistic about the future 18 months of the cryptocurrency market. Although Bitcoin's market share is gradually declining, its price is expected to break through the $150,000 mark by the end of 2026. In comparison, Ethereum and Solana may have greater growth potential.

What’s more noteworthy is the entry actions of traditional giants. Large tech companies are expected to gradually launch or acquire their own crypto wallet products, and the top Fortune 100 companies are showing a clear increase in willingness to adopt blockchain technology. This indicates that the infrastructure for on-chain applications is accelerating its development.

The stablecoin market remains hot. It is expected that the supply of stablecoins will grow by approximately 60% in the future, but USDT’s dominant position as a leading stablecoin may weaken, leading to a more dispersed market landscape.

Interesting changes have also emerged in the DeFi sector. The market share of equity-based perpetual contracts has exceeded 20%, and this sector is attracting increasing traffic. It is expected that three mainstream perpetual DEX platforms will dominate the market this year, forming a relatively stable competitive landscape.
