Some onchain analysts allege tenuous links between the whale’s wallet and Garrett Jin, former CEO of defunct exchange BitForex, though no connection has been proven and the link has been disputed by other analysts.

Fundstrat analyst: The crypto market may experience a significant decline in the first half of next year, with bitcoin possibly falling to $60,000–$65,000
According to Odaily, Sean Farrell, Head of Crypto Strategy at Tom Lee’s Fundstrat, stated in the “2026 Crypto Outlook” report: “Although I believe that bitcoin and the entire crypto market still have strong long-term bullish factors, and liquidity-driven support is likely to emerge in 2026, there may still be several risks to digest in the first and second quarters of 2026, which could provide more attractive entry points. My base case is: a relatively significant decline in the first half of 2026, with bitcoin possibly dropping to $60,000–$65,000, ethereum possibly dropping to $1,800–$2,000, and SOL possibly dropping to $50–$75. These price levels will offer good opportunities for positioning before the end of the year. If this judgment proves to be wrong, I would still prefer to maintain a defensive stance and wait for confirmation signals of a strengthening trend. The year-end target for bitcoin is around $115,000, and ethereum’s year-end target could reach $4,500. Within this framework, ETH’s relative strength will become even more prominent. I think this is reasonable, as ethereum has more favorable structural capital flow characteristics, including: no miner selling pressure, not being affected by MSTR-related factors, and relatively lower concerns about quantum risks.”

Analyst: Bitcoin may rise to $170,000 within three months
Jinse Finance reported that as 2025 draws to a close, the outlook for bitcoin and the entire crypto market remains at best cautiously optimistic. However, some analysts predict that investors may see a bullish turn in 2026. After bitcoin hit a high of $126,080 on October 6 and underwent a period of sustained sell-off, it stabilized around $84,000 on November 22, indicating that the persistent selling pressure may have ended. The Relative Strength Index (RSI), which measures asset momentum, had previously fallen below the oversold level of 30. Since 2023, this situation has occurred five times, and each time, bitcoin subsequently showed a bullish trend. According to Julien Bittel, Head of Macro Research at Global Macro Investor, if history repeats itself, this pattern suggests that bitcoin could rise to $170,000 in less than three months. Matt Hougan, Chief Investment Officer at Bitwise, stated that the development trajectory of crypto ETFs is "extremely optimistic," with some major brokerages starting to enter the market. He expects 2026 to be a record year for crypto ETF inflows.
