Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse stated at Binance Blockchain Week that Bitcoin could reach $180,000 by the end of 2026.
He highlighted U.S. regulatory clarity as a key factor that could unlock institutional capital currently on the sidelines.
Garlinghouse also noted the entry of major financial institutions like BlackRock, Vanguard, and Fidelity into Bitcoin as a sign of long-term structural participation.
Additionally, he pointed to growth in tokenization, payments, and Web3 infrastructure as supporting factors for sustained Bitcoin adoption.
Other executives at the event expressed bullish views on Bitcoin, while cautioning that macro liquidity and global adoption will influence its short-term performance.
