Anthropic’s Claude AI predicts that if the US announced a strategic Bitcoin reserve and begin buying BTC on the open market, it could spike to $250,000 by January 1, 2027. Bitcoin is currently around $82,000–$83,000, roughly -34% below its ~$126,000 all-time high. Reaching $250,000 by January 1, 2027 would require about a 3x move in less than three months, an enormous ask, but not mathematically impossible given Bitcoin’s historical volatility.

Imagine that before the end of 2026, the U.S. announces a strategic Bitcoin reserve, directly buying BTC and providing clearer regulatory treatment. Following this, major economies and sovereign wealth funds commit to allocating 1–2% of their reserves to Bitcoin.
