Bitcoin To Be Less Volatile Than Nvidia In 2026: Bitwise
Bitcoin’s price volatility has declined, becoming lower than Nvidia’s in 2025, suggesting a diversification of its investor base, particularly due to the rise of institutional investment products like ETFs. Bitwise predicts this trend will continue, with Bitcoin remaining less volatile than Nvidia shares in 2026, reflecting a fundamental reduction in risk for Bitcoin as an asset. In 2025, Bitcoin experienced a 68% price swing, while Nvidia shares saw a 120% swing. Nvidia has outperformed Bitcoin year-to-date, gaining 27% while Bitcoin has declined 8%, reflecting a decoupling of crypto from traditional stocks. Bitwise forecasts a new all-time high for Bitcoin in the coming year and the possible end of the four-year cycle, suggesting factors like the halving, rate cycles, and leveraged booms are less influential than before. Institutional adoption and investment in crypto are expected to accelerate in 2026, with major financial firms increasing involvement. Bitwise also anticipates crypto equities will continue to outperform tech equities amid a favorable regulatory environment.
