Senior investor Dan Tapiero: Bitcoin will rise to $180,000 in this cycle

BlockBeats News, January 18 — According to CoinDesk, seasoned crypto investor Dan Tapiero stated: “If you invest $10,000 in crypto assets by 2026, I think you can directly allocate the funds to Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana. As for the specific allocation, it depends on your preferences.” Dan Tapiero believes that the biggest opportunity in the cryptocurrency space in 2026 lies in the widespread adoption of infrastructure and stablecoins.

Tapiero said he expects Bitcoin to rise to $180,000 in this cycle, citing the combined effects of increasing demand and global monetary policy shifts. Falling interest rates and large-scale government investments in artificial intelligence infrastructure will bring strong positive factors. This global push is causing all fiat currencies, including the US dollar, to depreciate. This is very favorable for Bitcoin.

Tapiero believes that tokenization, the integration of blockchain and artificial intelligence, and on-chain prediction markets all have good growth prospects. However, he remains cautious about crypto treasury companies, believing that these trends have not brought much real innovation.
