Ex-Binance Executive Says Liquidity Will Drive Bitcoin ATH in 2026

Chase Guo, a former business development executive at Binance, predicts Bitcoin will reach a new all-time high in 2026, but not for the usual reasons. He says the next major breakout will stem from liquidity positioning and structural market dynamics rather than the halving cycle, retail euphoria or macroeconomic tailwinds.

He warned the reason "will shock people." Guo outlined three forces that govern crypto pricing: liquidity, attention and token-holder structure (often called "chip structure"). He argued these elements shape short- to medium-term cycles — roughly seven days to three months — as capital flows, social momentum and token distribution drive volatility and trend direction.

Even Bitcoin, commonly framed as a long-term store of value, remains heavily influenced by short-term liquidity and leveraged positioning. A central part of his thesis is consensus positioning.
