Bitcoin closed at $63,367, down 0.28% after trading between $63,240 and $64,411, leaving a $60,000-$68,000 base. Meta AI's end-2026 scenario puts BTC at $95,000-$115,000, centered on $105,000, or roughly a 66% recovery from $63,367. The thesis pairs H.R. 8957, the ARMA bill, with corporate buying, including Metaplanet's 18,991 BTC treasury and planned $837 million deployment in September and October.
Why it matters
The policy angle could turn a technical rebound into a supply story. If advanced, ARMA would codify a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve inside the Treasury, lock federal holdings for 20 years and authorize budget-neutral purchases of up to 200,000 BTC annually for five years. That could put up to 1 million BTC against a fixed-supply market, but the demand remains conditional on the bill advancing.
Metaplanet's planned share-issuance-funded purchases add a corporate-demand leg. Bitcoin's 7-day average hash rate reached roughly 724 EH/s in early July, signaling continued miner commitment to network security without confirming a price breakout.
Market impact
After peaking above $120,000, BTC formed lower highs before settling into the $60,000-$68,000 base. Holding $60,000 keeps the recovery setup alive; reclaiming $68,000 would open a path toward $72,000-$80,000. RSI at 45.25 versus a 49.57 signal line leaves momentum tilted toward sellers, though Bitcoin is not oversold.
If ARMA stalls and corporate accumulation slows, Meta AI sees Bitcoin revisiting $52,000-$56,000. Policy progress, Metaplanet's purchases and a decisive move above $68,000 are the key tests for the $105,000 scenario.
