My Bitcoin Outlook for January 2026:
At the start of the month, BTC is trading in the US$ 88k–90k range, following a recovery toward the end of 2025.
Historically, January has been bullish for Bitcoin, posting gains in 69% of years with an average return of +10.9%.
Key positive factors:
• Institutional adoption via spot ETFs
• Expectations of Federal Reserve rate cuts
• A more supportive regulatory environment in the U.S.
• Continuation of the post-halving cycle / supercycle thesis
Estimated price for end of January:
🎯 US$ 95,000 ± US$ 10,000 (range: US$ 85k–105k)
There is potential for a breakout above US$ 100k if momentum strengthens, although volatility is expected to remain elevated.
📊 January Scenario Probabilities
🔵 Base case (50–55%)
Stabilization above US$ 85k, with a reclaim of the US$ 92k–95k zone by mid-January.
🟢 Bull case (25–30%)
Tighter liquidity combined with institutional buying drives BTC rapidly toward US$ 100k.
🔴 Bear case (15–20%)
A corrective move toward US$ 78k–82k, with a meaningful rally delayed until February.
⚠️ Risks & Catalysts
• Negative ETF flows → short-term downside pressure
• Adverse macro conditions or geopolitical events → increased volatility
• Strong momentum and spot volume → a decisive breakout above US$ 100k
👉 Conclusion: the bias remains bullish, but disciplined risk management is essential. January is likely to set the tone for the first quarter.
