Bloomberg strategist Mike McGlone warns of 2026 crisis, Bitcoin downside to $50,000
On January 1, 2026, Bloomberg Senior Commodity Strategist Mike McGlone outlined a base-case scenario of heightened market stress, comparing Donald Trump’s presidential timing to Herbert Hoover’s and calling for a third down year for U.S. stocks since 2008. He argued that Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies likely topped out, seeing a move to $50,000 as more probable than a surge above $100,000, while also expecting gold’s 2025 outperformance to fade and U.S. T-bonds to take over as the main source of alpha.

Crypto tokens face identity crisis as 2026 opens with $2.2B in BTC and ETH options expiries
As 2026 trading begins, Delphi Digital reports that crypto investors are grappling with a "token identity crisis" as assets increasingly resemble equity, governance tools, or customer acquisition incentives. Securitize's IPO plans, MetaDAO's ownership tokens, Uniswap's fee switch, and CAC-style distribution models such as Worldcoin illustrate this shift, while regulatory moves in the US and Europe aim to clarify rules for institutions. Around $2.2 billion in Bitcoin and Ethereum options are set to expire, with Bitcoin trading near $88,970 and option positioning suggesting expectations for a possible move back above $90,000.
