Okay, so you’ve got these Bitcoin DATCOs-digital asset treasuries, you know the type. They either sit on BTC like a stubborn roommate or pretend they’re day traders. In 2026 they’re all watching the price like a weather forecast, trying to figure out if they’ll still turn a profit. Base-case: BTC around $150k in 2026, flirting with $200k in 2027. Then, because life loves a dramatic plot twist, a perfect storm-massive ETF inflows, friendlier macro vibes, and regulators actually making sense-could push BTC past $200k by 2026.
“We see the rise of cost-basis return cycles…bitcoin…pulls back to its cost basis and then rebounds by around 70%. With bitcoin now trading near its $87,000 cost basis, that pattern points to a move north of $140,000 in the next 180 days.”
A price rise in 2026 is the only way for mNAV to climb above 1 for DATCOs. Buy-and-hold shareholders live or die by the token’s price; they’re waiting for the moon.
But DATCOs with an active, operations-driven treasury strategy make their assets work for shareholders. Instead of a simple BTC grab, active DATs might run validator nodes, secure networks, validate transactions, and stake treasury assets to generate yield.
DATs with dynamic treasuries are better at compounding returns than mere bets on BTC prices. These active-treasury models are the engines turning DATs into productivity machines, with better ROIs, stronger balance sheets, and bigger investor returns.
Unlike prior bull markets, where BTC climbed 1,000% in a year, this time the YoY rise is around 240%. That steadier pace suggests institutional buying rather than retail frenzy, so the chances of a cyclical BTC drawdown are pretty slim.
So, you can expect a steady climb in Bitcoin prices, with BTC hitting $150K in 2026 and likely surpassing $200K by 2027, if not sooner. And those with active treasuries won’t need to wait for $200K to see outsized returns.
With a revenue-generating treasury strategy, active DATs will keep creating value for investors across all price vectors. These active-treasury DATCOs will push crypto growth in 2026 and beyond.
