Bloomberg reported that the longstanding U.S. regulatory conflict over cryptocurrencies is now considered resolved, a claim amplified by the X account @BitcoinArchive. The SEC and CFTC have reached a point of mutual acceptance, effectively ending what the report calls the "crypto regulatory war."
The shift comes without new legislation. Instead, the two agencies have stepped up coordination in shaping crypto market rules: the SEC has been proactive with guidance, while the CFTC has proposed rules that are now under review at the White House.
Prediction markets moved to reflect the news. Support for Bitcoin reaching $200,000 by the end of 2026 saw a slight increase, a sign traders see a settled regulatory backdrop as supportive for prices.
The market prices a 1.3% to 11.5% chance of Bitcoin reaching various price milestones by December 31, 2026. It assigns a notable 37.5% chance of reaching $100,000 in the same window.
