I don't think the guys is 100% talking trash though.
At least in every nonsense, there is still sense in there. The main point is that the time frame he merged his prediction as to when Bitcoin will each the millions, is just too short or looks unrealistic.
The price of Bitcoin will one day reach millions but there will be many circumstances and controversy that will push it to it

it's not impossible, but the point is "when". One year, five years, ten years? I'd say 50k-100k in one or two years, but 1 million is too high. A quick run to 100k would lead to a correction, then another around 500k, that's why I don't see this happening so fast. Unless you are expecting a world war, earthquakes, meteors, locust clouds, a combination of apocalyptic events that could lead to a crazy quick rise.

After being in the crypto world or awhile now I do not think anything is crazy. Think about it. Crypto is still so new and many people have not heard of bitcoin never mind crypto. Bitcoin has not even begun being used the way it should. When shops start accepting it more and more and we get to the point it becomes an alternative and accepted way of payment that is when you will see the price really shoot up since it will enter mass adoption. We are all still incredibly early even though it has taken 10 years. Things take time to change and remember the bitcoins are almost all mined and that will have a huge impact on the price. In 10 years from now, who knows what will happen.

I am surprised that you of all people too could believe in this madness, and look at it yourself, how is it possible for bitcoin to reach such amount next year, what possibility do you see from these factors that you listed here, bitcoin scarcity fine will lead to price surge, but the only thing that can cause bitcoin scarcity is when there are no more miners of the coin which I don’t see that happening at any time.

Secondly if all the coins has been successfully mined, then this issue of scarcity can come in, and There is no institution that will pump such amount of money into the market, not even the combination of 10 institution together, so forget that aspect, and bitcoin halving can only surge the value of bitcoin to at least $50000 and not even $100k.

This is a ridiculous prediction thought by John Mcafe. I don't believe him because he said bitcoin would be $ 2 million in a year, in my personal opinion, that's impossible because we know the price of bitcoin now, with an average price of only $ 1k or more why does john Mcafe dare say bitcoin will have a price $ 2 million by 2020.

It is all about economic and mathematical laws. Supply and demand my friend.. Here is a statistic for you: there are over 36M millionaires in this world and Bitcoin only has 21M limited supply with 3-4M already considered lost. You remain with ~ 17M BTC supply that needs to be shared between these millionaires which we assume want to purchase at least 1 BTC. Now.. think about this.. where do you put the companies, the governments which maybe want to create reserves denominated in this cryptocurrency? I believe this coin has enough potential to achieve even $5-10M per unit in time - you can call me crazy but that's the truth.

If the global recession really happens in 2020, we might have more countries glance at bitcoin, but holding BTC like Venezuela requires parliamentary approval depend on the situation of the country obviously. Because the volatility of bitcoin unavoidable, the price could rise and fall in a relatively short time, in the last 24 hours bitcoin drop 9% from $8025 to$7293 as the bottom.

Bitcoin can never be the currency that can perfectly fit with all the countries in the world, hence it can never be the global currency that many are dreaming for it to become. There are so many insurmountable challenges that can take decades to topple, and that is if there is really an influential organization working and promoting for Bitcoin. Time is coming when people's interest with Bitcoin will drastically wane and that can be the crossroad for this cryptocurrency either it will continue its path to global dominance or will just be like a withering flower in the side of the road. Which future Bitcoin can take depends a lot on many factors happening today. I am still optimistic with Bitcoin but I also understand the market realities have to be factored in.

I am always amazed when people like John McAfee opened their big mouths and make outrageous, outlandish and laughable predictions on Bitcoin, with a threat that they will be doing something unbelievable if their predictions will not happen. However, please don't get me wrong, I would be one of the many first people to commend John in case the $2 million prophecy will one day be a big reality. I am just waiting for it, Johnny boy.

1. Bitcoin’s Scarcity Will Lead to a Price Surge

Dude ,

The bitcoin scarcity scam is a myth.

They say their are only 21 million bitcoin to be made.

But that is only true if the smallest denomination is 1 bitcoin.

It is not , the current smallest denomination is .00000001 ,

which means the bitcoin supply is not 21000000 as they told you,

the actual bitcoin supply is 2100000000000000, comes out to 2.1 QUADRILLION.
Not a limited supply at all.

The real scam is they can inflate the supply by going to the right side of the decimal instead of the left.
* The Scam network LN, already goes to 12 places below zero, so they are even worse.*

FYI:
McAfee is a NutJob.

It depends, if you're going off the lowest denomination (satoshis), it's a bit flawed since people don't calculate things via the lowest cent, and with transaction fees being a thing with bitcoin, sending a single satoshi or 2 is impossible to do with how much fees there are for even small transactions.

Honestly, it's looking very dire for crypto-currencies in the future and with there being such a huge focus placed on stablecoins over bitcoin, I don't think we are going to see a lot of adoption in the future and not a lot of growth.

BTC is at $7500 as I write and it seems we are going to end up in a BEAR market. so to think BTC price will go from $7500 to $1Mil , some one will need hell lot more strong weed than that of what John Mcafee is smoking!.

BTC price going to $1k is more realistic than it to be $1Mil in just 1 year time!

You sound like the people in July 2010 who were saying it was worthless and would never hit $1, and then 6 months later saying it would drop under $1 and never come back. The FUD was wrong then and is now.

Will it go that high? No one knows, but placing bets against it has been a losing proposition for more than a decade.

Halvings have led to orders of magnitude growth in fiat price each time so far. Much decreased new supply (halved), increased demand follows the supply-demand curve.

Still not enough to prove that kind of huge amount.

C'mon, be real. This aint just a small number considering how strong the US dollar is up to now.
He might be saying this because of the value of USD going down. Yes, that might go to that kind of number if that is the case.
But do you really think that could just happen? They wont let it.

It might not as strong as you think. For the whole year it was losing value to some currencies like the Canadian Dollar. Many people see the recession coming and the signs of it are visible if you look closely. The FED printing like crazy, The US putting pressure on the EU to print as well to keep the balance between USD and EUR...
German banks aren't doing well. Commerzbank was recently trying to sell its branch in Poland but nobody wanted to buy it. I haven't checked if they actually managed to sell it. They are also letting go lot of employees. If they shut down completely it's going to be another bank run and panic that may turn into protests similar to the ones in China and France.

I believe that it would be enough just for the EU to go into recession for Bitcoin to explode.

Well you demonstrated that you have no clue about anything at all. You as well are a nutter for this utter nonsense. BTC Supply is in fact limited, the miners will have to use the same energy for produce less and less coins. If I remember correctly the time b4 the absolute max supply reached is not the post important time because even b4 that the production will be so expensive at some point that the price will go up. You little childish BS "myth because it can be divided" is really the stupidest thing I heard in a long time.

BTC as opposed to any FIAT is actually limited. The Banks can just print and print more and more money and hyper-inflate to completely make money worthless. This can NOT happen with BTC. In FIAT the supply is unlimited because all the money that exists is nothing more then DEPT! Look at the national dept counters of countries, they race up every milliseconds for unthinkable amounts. FIAT is backed by absolutely nothing. Long term BTC will go up, because if the actual factual scarcity it has and because adoption will rise. But it will not be short term and not as extreme as McAffee claims.

Not your Keys, Not your Bitcoins

I noticed that many people are skeptic about Bitcoin reaching 7 digits numbers, but as said in the article posted by the OP there are some pretty strong fundamentals that back McAfee's prediction. I think that $2 million is too exaggerated for Bitcoin to achieve in only 1 year from now so I'd go for a safer choice: $100k by the middle-end of 2020. In the long term if nothing major happens, Bitcoin is bound to reach millions per unit. Adoption is slowly increasing with the retail public as well, not just in the institutions' space. Wink

But this can be done to any currency. What's there to even call a scam? A dollar can be broken into cents and a piece of gold can be divided into grains of dust weighing micrograms. Only a total lunatic would call divisibility a scam.
There are 21 million mined bitcoins out of which at least 10% is lost. A bitcoin can be divided into satoshis and the number of zeroes helps in microtransactions. If Bitcoin ever goes to 100 thousand dollars it will be impossible to pay without using this feature.

I don't like McAfee but when Bitcoin went from 1 dollar to 8 dollars people were dreaming of it being worth 100 dollars one day and when it reached 100 they started dreaming about 1000. It's normal to think big but for me big is 50 thousand. For him it can be a million or two.

Just look at how much Bitcoin has grown from the past 10 years do you think that it could really go and jump insanely from $7,500 into a Million Dollar ?
Even in the past the highest price jump only made it x20 from $1K-20k and it took a lot of time and you think that from $7,500 it would go insane to 1M .

It's not crazy but it's extreme, Bitcoin hardly climb in the $20k level and $1 million is so far out, all your point is good but not too good enough to even reach $50k I don't want to rule out $1 million I'm also dreaming of that, but we have to take the reality of all the predictions, I don't know what Mcafee saw that we did not saw and what are the factors that he sees that makes him says that, but so far Bitcoin in million is not reasonable.

You bet against someone to gain something from him when you win and pay when you lose. Mcafee made a bet to mutilate himself if some prediction of his doesn't occur, against nobody.
So this kind of bet can either be lost or end in a tie, with Mcaffee gaining nothing from it.

Terrible bet imo.

I was on hype when he said that before because during those days the market was so high and on hype. But I've found no hope with his words when he started to advertise pump and dump scheme on his twitter account.

It's true that there will be a halving by next year and it can potentially move the market up. But up to the point of $1M-$2M, give it up. I don't think that we will be coming up to that point too early. Maybe we can reach hundreds of thousands in the future but not with millions.

They are very good arguments in favor of Bitcoin and if the last fact of a global recession is presented in 2020, many investors will abandon traditional projects and will opt for Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, how much can the price go up? No one knows, but there can be accelerated growth and best of all stay on a high stand.

For me, it just a daydream, I don't have much expectation from Bitcoin, I think it's not an only factor of cryptocurrency that should be focused and another cryptocurrency will not get any highlight, so if you want to see the development of cryptocurrency then you must consider most of all potential cryptocurrency, I think Bitcoin is in a good shape, it's true that we are losing Bitcoin day by day but it's also true that the Bitcoin mining rate is also increasing that's why I have a doubt of scarcity, He wanted to predict another Bitcoin Halving in May 2020 but it's a totally vague prediction because no logic behind this statement so far, And I completely disagree with another reason which is Global Recession in 2020, if it will happen then Bitcoin and cryptocurrency platform get also highly affected so it's out of question.

In my opinion, John McAfee has already overshadowed his previous forecast for the price of bitcoin at one million dollars. Now is he talking about two million? It is safe to say that bitcoin will never cost either two million or one million dollars. It will be a very big event if he ever can briefly rise to $ 50,000. And then this is not very believed. However, the coming years will show where cryptocurrency is going in relation to its prices.

Run the f***ing numbers. If Bitcoin is less than $2 million by the end of 2020, then mathematics itself is a flawed disappointment.

Yeah, I believe there is a big chance that Bitcoin can be reaching a new high at $2 Million before December 31, 2020 and I am staking my own head for this very simple prediction. Just kidding. I am sure that John McAfee is just having a great time in his life whenever the media and some people are listening to his superbly outlandish prediction. Look, there is nothing wrong with being optimistic because if one is a pessimist then he has no place hodling on to Bitcoin. Pessimists can short Bitcoin though, and make big money while doing it. John McAfee is just a good and big joker and should not be taken seriously. But then again, if his prediction is coming true then I am willing to change my views on him, anytime.

At least more sensible and practical post , $1,000,000 dollar to a bitcoin next year I think not happen. Too bold prediction but with our situation right now, seems its difficult to surpass that number.

In the long run hold, possible but for a year which happen next year, not possible.Though there are investors joining in but it may happen in staggered bases slowly, not abruptly as this will aother pump and dump. It must be organic growth.

We can run the numbers but we cannot predict the future. There are more factors that may affect the price. Ome of them is the counterpart of supply, which is demand. Even if supply slows down in the market, if demand does not catch up with the supply growth, minimal changes will only occur. People would still trade bitcoin, buying and selling depending on personal factors. However, if hype comes up too much to bitcoin, and digital currencies gain market attention, it may be possible. But there's still a lot of factors to consider, from government policies to market trust.

I don't think using logic is possible for Bitcoin to reach a price of $ 2 million, despite the 5 reasons stated on the OP. Especially those
who give the opinion of Mr. McAfee increasingly convinced this was madness. Only lies coming out of her mouth, I'd better not respond
too much to what he's talking about. Bitcoin makes more sense at $ 10,000 moreover market conditions are now more alarming.
Sometimes I'm confused with people who can trust John McAfee, what's wrong with them. Maybe they are frustrated with the bearish market,
so it's a bit of a hallucination.

Basically the reasom on bitcoin halving isn't enough to say bitcoin can surge up to 2million. Right at the moment the market is already sufferring in a huge decline. In order to have 2 million dollar price, bitcoin should be adopted worldwide that its supply was already consumed and all of the transactions uses bitcoin cryptocurrency. In this case, demand is so high that it cannot be sold in a very low pice.

You desperate people are so CONSUMED by your hope that you loose every clear thought. His prediction is total and utter BS. He thinks he can attract a few people people to buy into BTC so his own stock goes up. Turns out one little bullshit man is doing shit for the BTC price.

I actually like his mindset and his libertarian-ism. At the same time I get why the libertarian party hates him. He spouts to much BS! He is also super crazy, it would not surprise me if he actually did kill his neibour in Belize. He faked a heart attack to get out of there ... .

Remember him selling his "unhackable" wallet? Shortly after some hackers got DOOM running on that thing. Bahahaha. He tells so much bullshit. Why would you buy into his utterly stupid predictions?

BTC is at $7500 as I write and it seems we are going to end up in a BEAR market.

It is true. Instead, it dropped more. The current price is only about $7,477 and potentially to fall more.
OP must consider this situation and not only view on positive factors. The fact, we are getting away from bullish.

BTC price going to $1k is more realistic than it to be $1Mil in just 1 year time!

I agree with you. How could bitcoin be worth million of dollars with current price only around $7,477.
McAfee never learns the fact and current issues on Bitcoin + crypto space. He only wants to make a HYPE.
So, don't believe in McAfee’s $2 Million Bitcoin Prediction.

1. Bitcoin’s Scarcity Will Lead to a Price Surge

That's fair - the halving event will definitely be impactful for the price and future of bitcoin and I can definitely see it going up after it.

2. $2 Trillion+ Institutional Investment Dollars

Companies/investments coming into the crypto-space is good, and means more adoption which could mean better prices.

Doesn't really affect the price?

5. A Global Recession in 2020

I am under the impression bitcoin will also drop during that time period.

Some decent reasons, but not enough to think BTC will basically go 200x.

The reasons are true for Bitcoin but the prediction price by McAfee is too extreme as usual. I think there needs to be a miracle to see the price as 2 million dollars in such a short time. Cheesy

If the global recession really happens in 2020, we might have more countries glance at bitcoin, but holding BTC like Venezuela requires parliamentary approval depend on the situation of the country obviously. Because the volatility of bitcoin unavoidable, the price could rise and fall in a relatively short time, in the last 24 hours bitcoin drop 9% from $8025 to$7293 as the bottom.

McAfee is known by this kind of statements of his. I don't think that his ideas are valuable enough to consider. The reasons that are given for this claim are sensible but I don't give a chance for Bitcoin to be 2 million dollars in just 1 year while the price is walking around 8k dollars.

BTC is at $7500 as I write and it seems we are going to end up in a BEAR market. so to think BTC price will go from $7500 to $1Mil , some one will need hell lot more strong weed than that of what John Mcafee is smoking!.

BTC price going to $1k is more realistic than it to be $1Mil in just 1 year time!
