Analyst Alex Mason Says Bitcoin May Miss $100,000 Again in 2026 as $80,000 Weakens

Bitcoin has yet to trade above $100,000 in 2026, and an analyst argues a return to six figures is becoming less likely as price weakens below $80,000. The view frames the recent climb as a potentially controlled move within an ascending channel, with a key rejection after filling the $82,000 CME gap in early May.
