【Chain Wen】Recently, industry institutions have released a series of predictions for the future of the crypto market, and the outlook is quite interesting.
Bitcoin’s bullish momentum has not yet been fully unleashed. According to the forecast logic, by the end of 2027, Bitcoin is expected to reach $250,000—this number sounds a bit outrageous, but if you look at historical cycles, it doesn’t seem entirely impossible. 2026 itself will be very crazy, with price fluctuations so large that they are hard to predict, but this also means that new all-time highs are not just a dream.
The Solana ecosystem is also expanding rapidly. Its total market value in the internet capital market could soar from the current $750 million to $2 billion—almost a threefold increase. This growth rate indicates that the Solana ecosystem is not crawling slowly but is accelerating rapidly.
Another trend worth noting is that at least one operational general-purpose Layer-1 blockchain is about to integrate revenue-generating applications. What does this mean? Value is no longer just flowing to the platform but is directly flowing back into the native tokens. This design logic changes the tokenomics model and will cause a fundamental shift in the incentive structure for holders.
