Resolution criteria

This market resolves YES if Bitcoin's price closes at or above $79,000 USD on March 31, 2026. Resolution will be determined using the closing price from major cryptocurrency exchanges (CoinMarketCap, CoinGecko, or Coinbase) at 11:59 PM UTC on March 31, 2026. If multiple sources show conflicting prices, the volume-weighted average across major exchanges will be used.

Background

As of March 27, 2026, Bitcoin is trading at $66,587.39, requiring a roughly 19% gain to reach $79,000 by month-end. Bitcoin is trading roughly 43% below its all-time high of $126,080, which was reached in October 2025. Bitcoin recovered 5% from Monday's dip below $68,000 after reports of a pause in military escalation between the US and Iran eased geopolitical anxiety. Elevated oil prices and revised inflation forecasts for 2026 have led some investors to scale back expectations for imminent interest rate cuts by the US Federal Reserve.

Considerations

The timeframe is extremely tight—only four trading days remain in March. Historically, Bitcoin has reached its cycle peak 12–18 months after each halving, which places the theoretical window between April and October 2026, suggesting the current period may not align with typical bull-run timing. Bitcoin faces immediate resistance at the USD 71,500 and USD 72,000 levels, with a decisive break above these points signaling a move toward the March high of USD 74,000—still $5,000 short of the $79,000 target.
