Looking back at Bitcoin's Christmas market history, you'll find a steep upward curve. In 2016, during that Christmas, Bitcoin was still hovering around $899, but by 2024, this number has skyrocketed to $94,120. This is not just a numerical increase but also reflects the ten-year journey of the entire crypto asset market from the fringe to the mainstream.



The reason Bitcoin has achieved such success lies in its inherent scarcity. As digital gold, Bitcoin's total supply is fixed at 21 million coins, with no further issuance. Over time, more Bitcoins are permanently lost due to private key loss, the death of holders, and other reasons, which further reduces the circulating supply and makes the scarcity effect more pronounced.

Looking ahead to 2026, as the global macro environment evolves—gold reaching new all-time highs, and US stocks also hitting record levels—traditional funds are likely to reassess the allocation value of alternative assets like Bitcoin. Against this backdrop, whether Christmas 2026 can break through the $100,000 mark is indeed something market participants should closely watch.

899 to 94120, a hundredfold increase over ten years. This data is truly unmatched.

$94,120? I’ve always said that scarcity is the core logic. Those who only realize it now are just bagholders. I dare to go all-in if it breaks $100,000 in 2026.
