About this listen
Hey folks, Crypto Willy here, your best buddy diving deep into the blockchain buzz for the week leading up to January 13, 2026. Bitcoin's on fire, kicking off the year strong after smashing past $92,500, thanks to December's CPI data hitting 2.7% year-over-year—right on Bureau of Labor Statistics forecasts—and core inflation at 2.6%, per Bitcoin Magazine. That soft-landing vibe has traders eyeing Fed rate cuts, with Matt Mena from 21shares calling it a green light amid DOJ drama around Chair Powell.
Right now, BTC's hovering around $92,037, according to Changelly's real-time feed, with their forecast eyeing $99,758 by January 14 and a peak of $104,947 this month—averaging $97,995. GOBankingRates agrees, highlighting why Bitcoin's surging: institutional hunger and cycle-breaking momentum. Fear & Greed's at 27 (Fear), but 47% green days last month scream upside, even as it consolidates between $88K and $94K.
Big-picture strategies? Bitwise Investments drops 10 killer 2026 predictions: Bitcoin shattering all-time highs, out-volatility-ing Nvidia, ETFs gobbling over 100% of new BTC, ETH, and Solana supply. They see crypto equities crushing tech stocks, Polymarket open interest exploding past 2024 elections, and over 100 U.S. crypto ETFs launching. Bonus: BTC's stock correlation dropping. VanEck's Matthew Sigel pushes a 15% CAGR base case to $2.9M by 2050, urging 1-3% portfolio allocations—or up to 20% for risk-takers—as a sovereign debt hedge. Watch Relative Unrealized Profit (RUP) for entry signals; over 0.70 means tops.
Silicon Valley Bank forecasts institutional floods, record M&A, stablecoin booms, RWA tokenization via Coinbase and Circle's USDC plays, plus AI shaking things up. World Economic Forum spots tokenization exploding after a decade of tests. Nasdaq's latest? Someone just hiked their 2026 BTC target to $150K.
For trading wins: Dollar-cost average on dips, stack sats amid easing selling pressure toward $95K, per BeInCrypto. Diversify with onchain vaults doubling AUM, as Bitwise says—ETFs 2.0, baby!
Thanks for tuning in, crypto crew—catch you next week for more. This has been a Quiet Please production; for me, check out Quiet Please Dot A I. Stay stacked!
