Will CRCL Stock Recover by the End of Jan 2026?

Circle Internet Group’s stock has slipped back near the $83 area after losing much of its post-IPO momentum. The focus now sits on whether CRCL stock can regain strength before January ends.

CRCL Stock Stays in $79–$84 Range

The shares were last trading around $82.90. The range of the price action indicated the range of prices was between $79 and $84.33 and the trading volume remained lower as compared to the three months average. The weekly performance has become modestly positive although the monthly trend still indicates weakness.

The 52-week range of the stock is however between about 64 and slightly less than 299. The existing levels put CRCL stock over 70% below its previous peak, and more in the range than its previous highs.

Bernstein has repeated an optimistic view of CRCL stock and other crypto-related stock in 2026, citing expansion in tokenization, the usage of more stablecoins, and an increase in the activity of prediction markets as structural catalysts. The perspective of the firm resembles the anticipation of a larger adoption of digital asset infrastructure.

Circle Grows Non-Reserve Revenue

The focus has shifted to revenue diversification, which has become a key concern. Other revenues of Circle increased to $29 million in the third quarter of 2025, compared with a year before being under 1 million. Subscriptions, services, and transaction-based fees resulted in growth and suggested minimized dependence on interest revenue pegged on reserves.

The subscription and services revenue were at $23.6 million in the quarter. This component is also tied primarily to blockchain network partnership and infrastructure solutions, which analysts consider to be more recurrent. The transaction revenue reached an amount of $4.7 million which is an early monetization of payment flows as more people use the network.

Management has increased other revenue full-year 2025 guidance to a range of $90 to $100 million. Analysts noted the revision has made visibility of non-reservation sources of income better. Recurrent fee generation should be supported by platform initiatives, including the Arc blockchain network and the Circle Payments Network. 

The expectations in the market are broad. Monthly price target data indicate a consensus price target of about 12 months of approximately $139 with a range of estimates ranging between $64 and $299.

However, JPMorgan has given a double upgrade and raised its target to $100 and Mizuho and Goldman Sachs are keeping more reserved opinions in the $80. However, prediction platform CoinCodex predicts that CRCL stock would hit $147.40 on Jan. 31,
