Prediction markets betting that Bitcoin won’t touch $100,000 before year-end

At present, Bitcoin (BTC) is at 90,120 USD, with prediction markets like Polymarket and Kalshi estimating a mere 30% likelihood of surpassing 100,000 USD by the start of 2026.

Recent macroeconomic challenges and reduced Bitcoin purchases from companies hinder the cryptocurrency’s recovery, with resistance observed at 94,000 USD, and a notable breakout target set around 98,000 USD.
