With the final month of the year reaching its close, analysts, traders, and crypto experts are slowly shifting sights for the New Year. What will 2026 bring for the crypto community and market? Will it be new ATH prices for the pioneer crypto asset Bitcoin (BTC), or will it be the long-awaited altseason that will send altcoin prices to new ATHs? Financial and crypto expert Raoul Pal issues warnings for 2026 and advices steady minds for altseason.
Financial and Crypto Expert Raoul Pal Issues Warnings for 2026
Raoul Pal, the popular and globally recognized financial and crypto expert caught the attention of the masses early this month. This attention came for his latest prediction concerning the current state of the crypto market. In detail, Raoul Pal claimed that the BTC bull market is not over and debunks all the rising bear market calls coming from other popular crypto analysts.
In detail, Pal’s prediction was that the previously used 4-year bull cycle structure is no longer in play. Like many other proclaimed the 4-year cycle to be dead and that BTC would shift into year-long cycles like stocks, Pal proclaimed that this current bull cycle alone has shifted into a 5-year supercycle caused by the extension of the business cycle and the delay in overall global liquidity flow.
What’s more, Pal claims that the 5-year supercycle will lead to BTC setting much higher new ATH prices in the year of 2026. This goes directly against the many reputed crypto analysts who have declared 2026 to see BTC print bear market lows in the $40,000 – $60,000 price range. In addition, Pal mentioned that this 5-year stretch could lead to the next bull cycle being reduced to a 3-year cycle to maintain equilibrium.
Pal’s Advice for Surviving 2026 Altseason
When asked what the hardest thing will be for traders in 2026, Pal says it will be the peak of the altseason if not the entire altseason alone. This is because altseason will, like always, see many post about 20x or 5x gains on various altcoins. During this time it will be very difficult for new retail traders to avoid FOMO and choose promising crypto assets over chasing gains.
As we can see from the post above, Pal says that it is nearly impossible to survive from short tradesalone and encourages retail traders to position themselves now by holding promising long-term tokens like Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Solana (SOL), or other similar tokens, because at teh end of the run, the gains made from simply holding will outperform the gains made by most short-term traders.
