2026

Hope

Bitcoin

<p style="text-align: justify">Bitcoin (BTC) did not experience a decline on the first day of the year, and <a href="https://en.coin-turk.com/trump-and-melania-coin-create-waves-in-crypto-market/" data-wpel-link="internal">cryptocurrency</a> investors welcomed 2026 calmly. After enduring months of selling, the markets acknowledging Bitcoin’s stability hints at impending market movements. Darkfost analyzed this detail and suggested that the time for <a href="https://en.coin-turk.com/crypto-expert-highlights-stellars-growth-and-bitcoins-recovery-signals/" data-wpel-link="internal">cryptocurrencies</a> is approaching.</p>
<h2 id="cryptocurrency-s-moment-has-arrived">Cryptocurrency’s Moment Has Arrived</h2>
<p style="text-align: justify">Today, CryptoQuant analyst Darkfost focused on changes in the Sharpe ratio. This ratio is used to evaluate the risk of BTC or other assets based on their volatility and returns. It aims to compare the two variables to identify periods with higher or lower risks.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="size-full wp-image-513707 aligncenter" src="https://coin-turk.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/bitcoin-sharpe-ratio.webp" alt="" width="2048" height="1152"></p>
<p style="text-align: justify">Normally, a low Sharpe ratio is associated with high-risk periods. For Bitcoin, it is different. Due to its volatile nature, a low Sharpe ratio means high volatility persists while returns are low, which translates to losses for investors. The analyst commented on this, stating that the best opportunities in Bitcoin arise when losses have already occurred, and volatility has led to significant declines and negative returns. Therefore, a negative Sharpe ratio today at (-0.5) could present a good opportunity for Bitcoin, as historically, the best buying opportunities have occurred when this ratio reaches extremely low-risk areas highlighted on the chart.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify">Hopes for BTC closing below $80,000 have faded for some time, which has exhausted the bears. While bulls expect more increases and don’t get what they foresee, bears are uncomfortable with higher closing levels. This indicates a potential bottom level being reached. The Sharpe ratio confirming this suggests another sign of the bottom being identified.</p>
<h2 id="hope-for-2026">Hope for 2026</h2>
<p style="text-align: justify">Cryptocurrencies saw all kinds of battles in 2025. Trump clashed with China at least four times and with the EU three times, each time affecting cryptocurrencies negatively. Adding AI bubbles and other controversies, external factors impacted cryptocurrencies nearly every month. Despite this, BTC reached an all-time high level.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify">With many negatives now overcome, there is hope for 2026. Furthermore, with the U.S. debt continuing to grow in the new year while interest rates fall as Trump desires, Bitcoin, according to BlackRock’s CEO, remains the asset with the best risk pricing. If risks remain limited in the US midterm election year as expected, cryptocurrencies could experience positive moments this year.</p>
