Jan3 CEO Bets on Musk Pivot; Predicts Tesla to ‘Go Hard’ Into Bitcoin in 2026
Jan3’s Samson Mow predicts Elon Musk will aggressively buy Bitcoin in 2026, targeting a $1.33M price point driven by corporate and nation-state FOMO.
Jan3 CEO Samson Mow has staked his 2026 outlook on a massive corporate reversal: Elon Musk aggressively re-entering the Bitcoin market. In a Saturday post on X, the Bitcoin maximalist stated simply, "@elonmusk goes hard into BTC," signaling a potential U-turn for the Tesla chief who offloaded 75% of the company’s holdings in July 2022.

The $1.33 Million Thesis
Mow’s prediction anchors a broader, hyper-bullish thesis that sees Bitcoin (BTC) reaching $1.33 million this year. A staggering 1,367% premium over the current price of $90,596. While the Jan3 founder is known for his "Omega Candle" theory, this specific target relies on a convergence of corporate FOMO and nation-state adoption, creating a supply shock that liquidity simply cannot absorb.
The market reaction remains muted, with BTC trading flat at $90,596 as volume consolidates over the weekend. Traders appear hesitant to price in the "Musk Factor" without concrete on-chain evidence of Tesla or SpaceX wallet activity.
Institutional Context: The Tesla Overhang
Musk’s relationship with Bitcoin has been a source of volatility since 2021. After initially accepting BTC for payments, Tesla suspended the option in May 2021 citing environmental concerns, a narrative Mow suggests is obsolete. A re-entry by Musk would likely force other corporate treasuries to re-evaluate their risk-off stance, validating the "nation-state adoption" model Mow has aggressively lobbied for in Latin America.
While Bitwise CIO Matt Hougan forecasts a "10-year grind" rather than a vertical ascent, Mow’s call bets on a sudden psychological shift in the boardroom rather than gradual accumulation.
