In this brief podcast excerpt, two speakers discuss speculative forecasts for Bitcoin's price by the end of 2026. Speaker B humorously offers a "coward's answer" by suggesting a wild estimate of $1 million per Bitcoin, acknowledging the guess is likely nonsense and that no one will hold them accountable. Speaker A counters that such a dramatic price surge could be driven not by Bitcoin's intrinsic value but by a catastrophic failure of the U.S. dollar, implying that a collapse in fiat currency and high inflation could be the real catalyst behind any massive Bitcoin rally. The exchange is informal, speculative, and highlights the uncertainty surrounding cryptocurrency price predictions and macro‑economic instability.

Where are we going and what's going to happen?
Hmm. Ah, I can give you the coward's answer or maybe just make a wild estimate and see if I land it. Let's just say, I don't know, just something silly. Maybe 1 million by the end of 2026. That's the dumb answer, let's say. Maybe I make it, maybe I don't. No one will punish me, let's say.
That could just be a catastrophic fail of the dollar as well. It's not anything to do with Bitcoin going up. Yeah. The dollar is worth little. It suddenly shot up.
