Bitcoin price prediction 2026/2027 - 2030

How much will Bitcoin be worth? The talk of the town when the price is on the rise. In this article, we'll walk you through the predictions of various analysts. Just a quick disclaimer: no one has a crystal ball, and there's no guarantee that these predictions will come true. Only invest what you can afford to lose.

Bitcoin price prediction for the short-term

Updated on: July 3, 2026

Bitcoin has just closed its weakest June since 2022. The price dropped by more than 20 percent and ended the month around 58,500 dollars. That means BTC closed below the important 200 week moving average, which sits near 62,000 dollars.

According to analysts, that is a warning sign. Bitcoin is still trading above the realized price of roughly 52,000 dollars, but based on previous cycles, that level could still be tested again before a real bottom is formed.

Bitcoin may not have found its bottom yet

Crypto analyst PlanB warns that previous bear market bottoms have usually taken place below the realized price. This metric represents the average purchase price of all Bitcoin currently in circulation.

In his view, Bitcoin may already be undervalued at current levels, but that does not mean the market cannot move lower. A drop toward 52,000 dollars therefore remains a possibility.

Benjamin Cowen is also watching the midterm year pattern. According to him, the second half of these years has historically often acted as an accumulation phase or bottoming zone for Bitcoin. The fact that BTC made a new low on July 1 fits that pattern, he says.

Whales sell while retail buys the dip

On chain data shows a clear difference between large and small investors. According to Santiment, wallets holding between 10 and 10,000 BTC have reduced their positions since mid June. That suggests whales are still taking a cautious approach.

Smaller investors are doing the opposite. Wallets holding less than 0.01 BTC have increased their balances. Retail investors appear to view the decline mainly as a buying opportunity. That difference makes the market fragile. A stronger bottom often forms only when large investors also start accumulating again.

Rare bottom signal appears

Still, there are also signs that Bitcoin may be moving closer to a bottom. According to analyst Ali Martinez, more BTC is currently being held at a loss than at a profit.

Around 10.45 million BTC is now held at a loss, compared with 9.60 million BTC held in profit. Similar situations have appeared in the past around major bottoms, including in 2011, 2018 and during the March 2020 crash.

However, this does not mean the bottom is immediately in. In previous cycles, this phase sometimes lasted for weeks, but in other cases it continued for months.

Market waits for a new catalyst

For a real recovery, Bitcoin likely needs a clear new catalyst. This could come from better inflation data, renewed inflows into Bitcoin ETFs or a decrease in geopolitical tensions. The next US inflation figures are especially important, as they could influence expectations around Federal Reserve interest rate policy.

As long as investors remain uncertain about rate cuts and major Bitcoin holders are not clearly accumulating again, the market remains vulnerable. A move toward 55,000 dollars or even 52,000 dollars therefore remains realistic, especially if positive news stays absent for now.

What are the expectations for Bitcoin in 2026?

Bitcoin seems to be gaining momentum in 2026. In a neutral scenario, BTC could trade around €58,846.42 by the end of 2026, although this heavily depends on market sentiment.

What are the predictions for Bitcoin in 2027?

In a neutral scenario, the price could move toward €55,421.91 by July 2027. Whether this trend will continue remains the big question. If it does, the price could reach around €65,622.52 by December 2027.

How much will Bitcoin be worth in 2028?

In a neutral scenario, Bitcoin could theoretically reach a price of €108,692.34 by the end of 2028. By July 2029, the price could move toward €147,594.44, ending 2029 near €121,577.33.

What are the predictions for Bitcoin in 2030?

Now for the true long-term view. By mid-July 2031, the price of Bitcoin could move toward €145,256.33 in a neutral scenario. If this scenario continues, we could theoretically see a price of around €132,220.35 by December 2031.

PlanB: Bitcoin to average $500,000 in 2026 to 2028

But what if it happens even faster? Analyst PlanB is not short on optimism. Anonymity is more common in the world of Bitcoin. The only thing we know about PlanB? He is Dutch and has developed a unique price model for Bitcoin.

He calls this the stock-to-flow model of Bitcoin. The essence? Bitcoin is scarce, and that scarcity makes Bitcoin valuable. If you want the detailed explanation, you can read it below. But beware, we're delving deep into the world of Bitcoin!

So, Bitcoin is scarce. There will only be 21 million coins in the future. A fixed number of BTC enters the market every ten minutes. And that influx is roughly halved every four years. This is known as the Bitcoin halving.

Now, your economics lesson from the past comes back. What happens when demand remains the same but supply decreases? Prices rise. The stock-to-flow model is built on this principle.

Below, you can see PlanB's model along with the Bitcoin price. The dark blue band represents one standard deviation, and the light blue band represents two standard deviations. As you can see, the price has been moving within the model's range for years.

Will it continue like this? Then Bitcoin could reach 500.000 US dollars on average between 2025 and 2028. This may seem like an unthinkable scenario for some. But imagine this: ten years ago, no one expected Bitcoin to ever be worth 50,000 euros.
