China's DeepSeek AI has published end-of-2026 price targets for the three largest crypto assets — and each call comes with a clearly mapped bull and bear scenario. On Bitcoin, the model targets $85,000–$92,000, citing post-halving supply compression colliding with sustained ETF inflows as the core driver, while keeping $72,000 as the base case if a hawkish Fed or profit-taking wave interrupts the thesis.
For Ethereum, DeepSeek eyes $4,500–$5,000, pointing to the Dencun upgrade, rising staking yields, and growing institutional appetite for ETH-based income streams. The base case sits at $3,800, with $3,100 flagged as the downside if Layer 2 competition accelerates or gas fees spike.
