Lin Olden: Bitcoin’s increase may commence following the peak of AI company stocks., 2026/02/21 09:41:36
Economist and investment analyst Lyn Alden stated in the Coin Stories podcast that one of the factors contributing to Bitcoin’s growth could be the overheating of stocks from companies involved in artificial intelligence.
According to Alden, the next significant surge in Bitcoin may hinge on how overvalued AI company stocks become in the eyes of investors.
“It is possible that stocks of AI firms will reach a peak. Their valuations may rise to a point where further increases are difficult to justify,” the expert remarked.

When an asset’s price reaches levels where further appreciation seems questionable, capital often begins to flow into other sectors with greater growth potential.
Alden believes that Bitcoin will not require a substantial influx of funds for continued growth. Even a moderate increase in new demand could significantly impact the price, as long-term holders effectively reduce the supply in the market, while short-term traders exit their positions.
The analyst does not anticipate a sharp price increase in the near future. She estimates that the market is in a consolidation phase, and Bitcoin’s value could decline by approximately $10,000 more.
Previously, Matt Hougan, the investment director of the crypto asset management firm Bitwise, indicated that the crypto market could emerge from the bear cycle, potentially benefiting the decentralized finance (DeFi) sector.
