Crypto Prices Reach Multi-Month Peaks but Traders Remain Skeptical of 2026 Records

Bitcoin surged 4.62% in 24 hours to $80,861, while Ethereum gained 4.85% to $2,501, both reaching multi-month highs. Despite the rally, prediction market participants assign low probabilities to either asset hitting all-time highs this year. This suggests traders are capping expectations for further upside in 2026.
