A well-known Bitcoin analyst is charting a path that most traders don’t expect. According to reports, the pseudonymous quant strategist PlanB told his 216,000 YouTube subscribers he believes Bitcoin will climb to at least $300,000 by the end of 2026. Related Reading: Crash Incoming? Kiyosaki Warns Of ‘August Curse’ And Reveals His Bitcoin Buy Zone That’s a bold call, given that 60% of market participants think the world’s largest cryptocurrency won’t hit that mark in just one and a half years. Contrarian Price View Based on his stock-to-flow model, PlanB says Bitcoin’s built-in scarcity drives long-term value. He argues the model points toward an average of $500,000 per coin after the next halving. The stock-to-flow setup gives a wide range—from $250,000 at the low end to $1 million at the high end—but PlanB believes the center of that range is where Bitcoin is headed. His view flips the script on most forecasts today. The analyst is also keeping an eye on Bitcoin’s realized price. This metric looks at the price at which recent cohorts of coins last moved on-chain, then divides by the total supply. Since the current market price of $114,150—up 1% on the day—sits above every major cohort band, PlanB sees a classic bull-market pattern with no bear-market warning signs in sight. Market Forecasts Show Wide Range Based on data from price-forecast services, Bitcoin may average $112,000 this month of August, peaking near $114,800 and dipping to around $109,000. For September 2025, forecasts narrow to a band between $111,000 and $112,400, with an average close to $111,7002. Into 2026, some models see steady gains toward $194,000 by December, with highs above $225,000. Big Names Offer Mixed Views According to market watchers, Anthony Scaramucci expects Bitcoin to top $170,000 within the next year. US President Donald Trump has not weighed in on crypto recently. Cathie Wood has her sights on $1 million per coin over the next five years. Digital Coin Price forecasts a swing to about $119,860 by mid-August 2025, then longer-term gains into the $210,000–$230,000 range during 2025. Meanwhile, Michael Saylor, Strategy Chairman, says Bitcoin’s limited supply and growing institutional interest could push it to $10 million, sparking fresh debate over its long-term role as a global asset. Related Reading: Bitcoin Finds Support At $114K, But Rally May Stall Without New Drivers What It Means For Investors Based on analysis, investors should remember that models are tools, not guarantees. PlanB’s $300,000 call sits at the optimistic end of the spectrum. Others see more modest moves, while some have even larger long-term hopes. Whether Bitcoin follows its past cycles or breaks new ground, it’s clear the debate over its next big run is only getting started. Featured image from Meta, chart from TradingView

Crypto analyst Ripple Queen has made a bold prediction that the XRP price can reach $10,000 at some point. The analyst also highlighted factors that make this price target achievable despite how ambitious it is. XRP Price To $10,000 Is Already On The Horizon In an X post, Ripple Queen declared that an XRP price tag of $10,000 is already “locked in.” She claimed that the math proves that the altcoin can reach this target and then alluded to how its supply is limited and its utility is unmatched. The analyst added that the world is catching up fast, indicating that more people are adopting XRP. Related Reading: Market Cap Not A Hindrance To XRP Price Reaching $1,000, Expert Explains Why Ripple Queen further stated that regulatory clarity is falling into place for the crypto industry, which is bullish for the XRP price. Thanks to this regulatory clarity, with laws like the GENIUS Act, Ripple is set to expand its operations, which will boost XRP’s adoption. The altcoin is known to be at the centre of the crypto firm’s operations. Ripple CTO David Schwartz also recently indicated that it will continue to be the bridge currency for their payment services. In line with this, Ripple Queen remarked that mass adoption is no longer a dream but a countdown, which is why she believes that the XRP price will reach $10,000. The analyst also stated that banks and institutional investors are quietly accumulating, a move that she is confident will soon lead to a massive supply shock for the altcoin. These institutional investors will also have an avenue to accumulate more XRP once the SEC approves the spot ETFs. Bloomberg analysts Eric Balchunas and James Seyffart have already predicted a 95% chance of approval for the XRP ETFs. The launch of these funds will drive more capital into the altcoin’s ecosystem, which is bullish for the XRP price. Current Price Action On Journey To $10,000 Crypto analyst CasiTrades has provided insights into the current XRP price action, even as it eyes this projected rally to $10,000. In an X post, she stated that the price action isn’t bearish yet from a technical standpoint despite the recent correction. The analyst noted that the low at $2.75 remains above the wave 1 high around $2.65, which keeps the larger uptrend intact. Related Reading: Analyst Says XRP Price Is Now In Wave 4 — What To Expect CasiTrades further revealed that bullish divergences are showing up on the 15-minute chart up to the 4-hour chart. She claimed that this supports the case that $2.75 could be the bottom of this corrective wave. Moving forward, the analyst stated that a proper reclaim of $3.21 and a strong break above this level would begin to confirm that the correction is over and that the next leg up is underway. If that happens, the next target zone will be between $4.60 and $4.80. At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $3.05, up over 2% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap. Featured image from Getty Images, chart from Tradingview.com

The Tokyo-based company added 463 more Bitcoins to its treasury, investing approximately $52 million and bringing its total holdings near the $2 billion mark.

But while the corporate giant stacks coins like a vault on steroids, retail investors are focusing their attention elsewhere. But while the corporate giant stacks coins like a vault on steroids, retail investors are turning their attention elsewhere. A new crypto project is catching fire – one with memes, momentum, and a whole lot of buzz – called Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER). Let’s examine Metaplanet’s latest move more closely and why savvy investors might be watching $HYPER next. Metaplanet Buys $52M Worth of Bitcoin, Nears $2B in Holdings Metaplanet has doubled down on its Bitcoin strategy by purchasing 463 more $BTC at an average price of $119,5K per coin. That brings its total holdings to 17,595 $BTC, valued at roughly $1.8B. The Tokyo-based firm now ranks among the top corporate Bitcoin holders globally, sitting just behind giants like Strategy. This move is a strategic effort to safeguard shareholder value amid rising inflation and a weakening yen. Metaplanet uses a metric called ‘$BTC Yield,’ which monitors the growth of its Bitcoin holdings relative to share dilution to evaluate its performance. Between July 1 and August 4, the company posted a $BTC Yield of 24.6%. In Q2 alone, it recorded an impressive 129.4% $BTC Yield with 5,237 $BTC gained – worth about $604M at that time. It’s a bold, crypto-forward strategy that’s paying off and transforming how corporate treasuries are managed. Bitcoin Hyper: The Layer 2 That’s Supercharging Bitcoin Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) is the fastest Layer 2 ever built for Bitcoin. It uses the Solana Virtual Machine (SVM) to deliver sub-second transactions and near-zero gas fees. This high-performance infrastructure brings smart contracts, meme coins, dApps, and DeFi directly into the Bitcoin ecosystem. Bitcoin Hyper functions as Bitcoin’s execution layer, where all activity – payments, trading, on-chain governance, and development – occurs. Bitcoin provides the foundation. $HYPER adds the speed and flexibility needed to support real-world use cases. Since the beginning, Bitcoin Hyper has enabled the smooth transfer of assets across Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, and other networks. Cross-chain functionality isn’t just an add-on – it’s integral to the system. Developers can access comprehensive tools, support, and incentives to build within the ecosystem. $HYPER powers everything. It’s used for transactions, staking, governance, and token launches. The network is designed to scale, grow, and support the next generation of Bitcoin-native apps and communities. Whether you’re launching a DAO or trading a meme coin, this is where it all happens. It’s fast, it’s meme-ready, and it’s finally making Bitcoin feel modern. Why $HYPER Is Getting So Much Attention The crypto presale has already passed $7M, and right now you can still buy $HYPER for just $0.012525. Investors are getting in early to earn staking rewards, airdrops, governance rights, and priority access to new launches within the Bitcoin Hyper ecosystem. Bitcoin Hyper combines strong fundamentals with high-speed infrastructure and a cross-chain design that links Bitcoin with Ethereum, Solana, and more. The project supports fast growth, active development, and participation from both users and builders. The timing is also increasing interest. Metaplanet’s recent $52M Bitcoin purchase demonstrates rising institutional demand for $BTC exposure. As focus shifts toward Bitcoin’s potential, many seek ways to get involved beyond just holding coins. Bitcoin Hyper offers a Layer 2 solution that brings speed, smart contracts, and culture into the mix, making it a compelling option for today’s crypto users. The Bigger Bitcoin Picture Metaplanet continues to expand its position in Bitcoin, treating it as a long-term part of its corporate direction. The recent $52M buy shows growing confidence in $BTC as a core asset, not just a temporary solution. Meanwhile, Bitcoin Hyper is attracting retail investors with a fresh approach – speed, usability, and real cross-chain functionality. It brings Bitcoin into the world of smart contracts, meme coins, and on-chain communities. Together, both moves highlight how interest in Bitcoin is evolving at every level of the market.
