The big players are speaking out again, and this time it’s worth paying attention.

CZ recently said Bitcoin is about to hit new highs, and Musk suddenly started talking about Bitcoin as well. These top figures in the tech world generally don’t make statements lightly. They usually only speak up when the trend is clear—because they don’t need to buy the dip, just riding the momentum and shaping public opinion is enough. Mainstream funds fear this kind of hype from big names the most, as it can alter the original trend and extend the cycle. From this perspective, their statements really are a barometer for major capital flows.

CZ’s statement yesterday, "I predict many more ATHs coming soon," isn’t the first time he’s made such a prediction. Looking back at the records, the four previous times he publicly forecasted new highs, Bitcoin subsequently entered a major upward phase: December 2020, December 2024, June 2025, and yesterday, December 2025.

Interestingly, Bitcoin’s most explosive gains often don’t happen at the start or in the middle of a bull run, but rather near the very end. Some have calculated that after breaking $80,000, there have been historical surges of 150%-200%. While the previous two times weren’t quite as wild, they still saw increases of 120% and 70%.

What about altcoins? You don’t actually have to wait for Bitcoin to hit $120,000 to find opportunities. Every time Bitcoin pulls back, the market reallocates funds, and that’s often when altcoins break out. Last cycle, Ethereum surged from $1,400 to $5,000 during a period when Bitcoin was dropping, making an impressive comeback. So don’t just keep your eyes on #数字货币市场洞察 —in a rotation market, altcoins can deliver even more explosive gains.
