According to Novogratz, the prevailing negative sentiment in the crypto market and the decline in retail investor interest should not be misleading.
"I'm closely monitoring the situation. Being pessimistic at current levels is irrational. It's enough to see real momentum and a confident breakout above $100,000—and that will be a call to action and a reason for confidence for me personally. I believe 2026 could be a very successful year for the crypto market," the businessman declared.
In 2026, the crypto market's dynamics will be determined by the economic situation in the US and the actions of the Federal Reserve. If lending rates fall, this will lead to a weakening of the dollar and create a favorable environment for cryptocurrencies, Novogratz believes.
When the market "gets going," the leading cryptocurrency could move sharply and quickly. Bitcoin is still undervalued and is sure to set a new all-time high, the CEO of Galaxy Digital is convinced.
Earlier, Haseeb Quresh, a top manager at venture capital firm Dragonfly Capital, stated that by the end of 2026, the Bitcoin exchange rate could exceed $150,000, but the growth rate of the first cryptocurrency will be lower than that of altcoins.
