Foresight News message: Strive chairman Matt Cole said his confidence in Bitcoin’s future over the next 12 to 18 months has been further strengthened. He believes the current bear market has ended, and that the next Bitcoin cycle may become the strongest one in history. The BTC-to-gold ratio bottomed out in February 2026, about five months ahead of the BTC/USD price bottom in July. Bitcoin has now broken through against both the U.S. dollar and gold. The U.S. dollar entering a long-term weakening cycle, along with growing demand for "scarce assets" driven by AI, will bring Bitcoin structural tailwinds it has never experienced before.
