Bitcoin might see fresh highs next year if dollar liquidity starts flowing back in. The catalyst? Fed balance sheet expansion, mortgage rate cuts, increased bank lending, and defense spending could all pump liquidity into the system. This year was brutal though—BTC dropped roughly 14% while gold surged 44%, a pretty stark divergence mainly due to tightened liquidity conditions in 2025. The contrast shows how sensitive Bitcoin is to broader money supply dynamics. If the liquidity picture shifts in 2026, we could see BTC rewarded for its patience.

Liquidity returning can drive a rally? I'm tired of hearing this explanation. Let's wait and see.

Interesting. Based on on-chain data and capital flow analysis, I had already guessed this set of logic. The tightening in 2025 indeed exposed many problems—BTC dropped 14% while gold rose 44%, a clear indication of capital correlation, directly pointing to liquidity exhaustion. Now, we need to see how the Federal Reserve's next move in 2026 unfolds. Once the Fed balance sheet expansion starts, the capital chain will be reactivated... After analysis and judgment, the probability of the next wave flowing into Bitcoin remains quite high.

Liquidity backflow is the key. The liquidity tightening in 2025 really hammered BTC to the floor. Gold rose by 44% while BTC only fell by 14%, which is quite good... Waiting for the Fed to loosen monetary policy, then we'll see who laughs last.
