Asset Management CEO Matt Cole said at BTC Prague that Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) is likely bottoming around the 200-week moving average and projects a base case of $80,000 to $120,000 by year-end.\nCole said it was partially deliberate, with Bitcoin down significantly that week and 32 coins matching what Strive planned to buy anyway. He publicly told Saylor those Bitcoin will be more expensive to repurchase.\nCole also pushed back on the narrative that Strategy’s small Bitcoin sale was a bearish signal. \nHe pointed out Strategy still bought a net 20,000-plus Bitcoin that same month, meaning it has never been a net seller in any single month. “Those fears are going to age really poorly,” Cole said.\nCole laid out his price framework clearly. The bear case puts Bitcoin between current levels and $40,000 by year-end, which he called low probability but not zero. \nThe positive scenario targets $100,000 to all-time highs. His base case sits between $80,000 and $120,000.\n“I think there’s a decent chance the bottom’s in,” Cole said, adding that anytime Bitcoin trades near its 200-week moving average, that’s the historically optimal window for Bitcoin bulls to take maximum risk. \nStrive holds nearly 20,000 Bitcoin and has 18 months of cash and marketable securities, enough to survive even a drop to $40,000 through the end of 2027 without selling a single coin.\nHe argued the staking yield thesis breaks down mathematically because Ethereum has underperformed Bitcoin by 15% annually on average since staking launched in 2020.\n“If I give you a 3% staking yield but the total return is minus 15% on price, your net return is minus 13% a year,” Cole said. \nHe called Ethereum, Solana (CRYPTO: SOL), and other altcoins insanely overvalued and said companies building leveraged treasury vehicles on top of those assets are amplifying exposure to something he views as likely to underperform.\nStrive’s preferred equity SATA pays daily dividends and has driven the company’s Bitcoin accumulation pace, with strong demand allowing Strive to climb to the seventh-largest public Bitcoin treasury with nearly 20,000 coins. \nCole said the average SATA buyer is around 60 years old, holds a net worth in the low millions, and wants income rather than direct Bitcoin exposure.\nCole sees digital credit, Bitcoin-backed yield instruments like SATA and STRC, growing into a multi-trillion dollar asset class by 2030 as trust in fiat currencies continues eroding and institutions seek something that bridges traditional finance and Bitcoin exposure without requiring self-custody.\nImage: Shutterstock\nTo add Benzinga News as your preferred source on Google, click here.","kind":"news","is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":false,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":false,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"isVideo":false,"video":null,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":0,"need_auth":false,"need_login_tip":false,"code":"91000000","status":"200"},"commentList":[],"isCommentEnd":true,"newsSizeData":{"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"favoriteSize":0,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false},"APP":{"userAgent":"Mozilla/5.0 AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko; compatible; ClaudeBot/1.0; +claudebot@anthropic.com)","isDev":false,"isTTM":true,"isLaohu8Offline":false,"tenantId":"TBGLOBAL","deviceId":"web-server-community-laohu8-v3","version":"4.45.2","shortVersion":"4.45.2","platform":"web","vendor":"web","appName":"ttm","isIOS":false,"isAndroid":false,"isTiger":false,"isTHS":false,"isWeiXin":false,"isWeiXinMini":false,"isWeiBo":false,"isQQ":false,"isBaiduSwan":false,"isBaiduBox":false,"isDingTalk":false,"isToutiao":false,"isOnePlus":false,"isHuaWei":false,"isXiaomi":false,"isXiaomiWebView":false,"isOppo":false,"isVivo":false,"isSamsung":false,"isMobile":false},"href":"/m/news/2649695892","isCrawlerRequest":true}
