#2026年比特币价格展望 A recent research report has dropped a bombshell: a regulatory draft from a leading Senate Banking Committee is brewing. If this draft passes, it could open the "back door" to monitoring the US financial system— the Treasury Department plans to gain the authority to "temporarily freeze digital asset transactions" without a court order, and also to include decentralized trading frontends under sanctions and anti-money laundering regulations. In plain terms, the liquidity of crypto assets is facing unprecedented national-level regulatory pressure.



Even more interesting is that the price trend of Bitcoin has strangely decoupled from the global M2 money supply starting mid-2025, and by early 2026, this divergence has become even more apparent—what signals does this send? Market factions are arguing fiercely: some institutional optimists believe that the global monetary easing cycle combined with the end of the Fed's QT is a huge positive for $BTC , with some analysts even predicting Bitcoin will catch up with M2 growth. But the bearish camp is panicking, pointing out that such decoupling often signals a market top, and a bear market may be turning at the door. There are even more extreme voices from the quantum computing perspective: once quantum computing power breaks through, existing cryptographic algorithms could face cracking risks, and at that point, the security assumptions of all digital assets will need to be re-evaluated.

Tokens like $ETH, $ZEC are also dancing along in this wave of regulatory storms and chaotic market signals—investors are biting their teeth, saying "Bitcoin is still a long-term store of value," while secretly checking counterparty risks at night. Should they hold tight or exit first? This question reveals the true thoughts of all parties more clearly in the comment sections than anywhere else.

Regulation will inevitably come down sooner or later; we've been mentally prepared for it. Once again, debating whether decoupling is a positive or a top; this storyline plays out every year. The rhetoric about quantum computing is really laughable; it's just scare tactics for something that hasn't even happened yet. Checking risks secretly at night haha, this is truly who we are. If this wave of BTC can really withstand the US Treasury Department's move, it will prove its value. Privacy coins like ZEC might be under even tighter scrutiny; think ahead, everyone.

Once regulation comes, I'll run, don't wait for a crash. The Ministry of Finance's move is really ruthless; since they can't control DEXs, it's better to go offshore directly. Decoupling from M2? I knew this wave would be bad, the signs of peaking are so obvious, and some people are still taking the bait. The rhetoric about quantum computing is too misleading, but wallet security is indeed something to think about. Hold or sell? I'll choose to cut half first to stop loss and sleep. The so-called "long-term value storage" is just a cover; everyone is betting that regulation won't be enforced. The counterparty risk in this wave of DEX trading is really high, everyone in the circle is panicking. Bitcoin chasing M2 growth? Just kidding, wait until it passes regulation before bragging. With regulation so strict, ETH and ZEC haven't even fallen yet, it's already a big deal, let's keep watching.

The Ministry of Finance's move directly sentenced DEX to death --- Decoupling is decoupling anyway, sooner or later it will return, so all this talk about topping out is too early --- That scary rhetoric about quantum computing comes around every year, just selling anxiety here --- Whenever regulation comes, they shout about store of value, but when it’s time to dump, they run faster than anyone else --- Is M2 decoupling possible, or is this time really different? --- Hold tight? I’ve already diversified my holdings, betting on uncertainty itself --- With the front end of DEX included under regulation, privacy coins are about to take off --- Some institutions say it’s bullish, bears say it’s the top, just listen, no one can predict the true direction --- Decentralized exchanges being sanctioned, it feels like the real DEX era is finally coming --- Talking about long-term investment while checking counterparty risks at night, this is the current crypto investor profile --- With such regulatory pressure, why do some still dare to hold heavy positions? I really don’t understand --- When quantum computing breaks through, Bitcoin needs to be worth millions of dollars to offset the risk --- Reading this article, it feels like a public opinion setup for a collective escape

Regulatory crackdown, the crypto world is once again filled with anxiety Unlicensed freezing by the Ministry of Finance? Isn't this treating us as terrorist financiers Bitcoin decoupling from M2 might actually be a bullish signal, the bears are too scary Hold tight or run away... this is the dilemma that keeps us awake at night Quantum computing threats are still too far off, let's focus on current regulations first Honestly, the M2 growth rate can't keep up with BTC, the market top signals are quite obvious Being sanctioned in the scope of DEX is the most painful part; true decentralization can't save it The bear market is here, perfect for bottom fishing; anyway, coins can't run away If $ETH also gets frozen... then it's really over Holding tight is right, but be prepared for the worst-case scenario

The Ministry of Finance directly freezing power? This time it's really going hard, DEXs might be about to collectively go into a cold war. While praising M2 as a good thing, they’re also worried about a top—this mindset is truly unbelievable. I believe in the quantum computing approach, but it's still too early to panic now. Let's wait until that day to see. Are you holding or not, everyone? Honestly, asking now is more exhausting than asking myself. As soon as regulation arrives, the coin price becomes strangely decoupled—what the hell is going on behind the scenes... Long-term value storage? The people saying that probably haven't slept well at night. Stop pretending. $ZEC and those privacy coins are really unlucky; who dares to touch them at this critical moment? If M2 growth can't keep up, does the meaning of BTC's existence need to be redefined... This round of regulation is a bit fierce; I've never seen the Ministry of Finance so direct before.
