The latest annual report from South Korea's Korbit Research Center predicts that Bitcoin will reach the $140,000 to $170,000 range in 2026. It highlights that the core drivers behind the price increase are US fiscal reforms, structural institutional demand, and a strong US dollar environment, rather than the traditional four-year halving cycle. The research team proposes a new macro-driven theory, emphasizing that improvements in US productivity and an expansion in capital expenditure have significantly enhanced Bitcoin’s impact. The report identifies “a strengthening US dollar, a potential gold pullback, and increased institutional allocation to Bitcoin” as the three key driving factors. ETFs and Digital Asset Treasuries (DATs) are rapidly absorbing market liquidity, and as of November 2025, the two combined will hold 11.7% of Bitcoin’s supply. The “One Big Bill” (OB3), expected to take effect in July 2025, will restore 100% bonus depreciation and immediate deduction of R&D expenses, potentially lowering the effective corporate tax rate to 10%-12%. Korbit believes this will attract overseas capital to the US and sustain the US dollar’s long-term strength.

Odaily News DAT provides investors with exposure to underlying digital assets by packaging crypto assets in securities regulated by the SEC, aiming to outperform the performance of the underlying assets through a strategy that maximizes returns. A key metric for measuring the performance of DATs is the market net asset value (mNAV), which compares the company's enterprise value to its digital asset holdings. Investment bank Macquarie points out that the viability of DAT is closely related to the equity premium relative to net asset value. If this premium erodes or turns into a discount, the model will face significant challenges. When the crypto market experiences a pullback, mNAV may fall below 1, indicating that the company's trading price is below the value of its crypto asset holdings, which may force DATs to sell some tokens to obtain liquidity.
