For those noobs who don't know who John McAfee is:

1. John McAfee is the person who promoted scam projects such as SimmitriToken and Zombie Coin
2. He charged ~20% of the total supply of the ICO, in exchange for the promotion
3. In other cases, he charged $105,000 for each tweet he made to promote the scam ICOs
4. He is suspected of involvement of the murder of Gregory Faull in Belize
5. McAfee fled to Guatemala, in order to avoid arrest by Belizean authorities

^ I'd forgotten about this self-imposed challenge Grin

We know that he backtracked but I just want to remind everyone that even crypto personalities can't predict the market and they get it wrong most of the time. Do not fall for their "expert" opinions. Some of them are paid reviews/opinions anyway.

I really forgot, this is one of the reasons why he is called a clown. He posted the tweet to spread FUD, because as we all know, he has been paid several times to praise a project regardless of the conditions that occur. Although honestly I hope that prediction will come true because I have converted most of my portfolio to bitcoin at that time.

You bring up a great point here and I'm glad you brought it up because there area a lot of people out there who believe anything a famous personality says. As a financial advisor I've come to learn no one has any guaranteed certainty when it comes to price predictions, whether for traditional markets or cryptocurrency.

hahaha.

I can't stop laughing, how stupid the man is! it's so funny. I think now Bitcoin is just unpredictable. no one can say when the price goes up or down. he is not only the renowned person in crypto market. even experts can't accurately predict about crypto market. because anything can be happened on this market. anyone can predict but no one can't guarantee…

Did John McAfee eat his dick? Lol, if his prediction was true, then it would be a big opportunity for all the people who are using bitcoin. We would earn a lot of money once it happened but sadly it doesn't happen, it means that even those people with a big personality cannot predict the price of the bitcoin. No one knows what will be the price of every cryptocurrency in the future. So you shouldn't rely on their prediction for you investment.

McAfee became the laughing stock in crypto a long time ago. But guess what, a lot of projects are still using him as a front, or endorser or whatever they need to boost their sales. But for those who are long timers in crypto, they know better how to treat crypto personalities that have high regards with themselves. They are just saying things but they really don't mean it.

What ever the reason of that man that he think it will turn bitcoin to $500k for sure 100 percent it will happen even in the future.
So what he gonna do now as he promised I hope it he will show us 😹.

The highest price of the bitcoin is $20,000 and that is happen 2017 but sadly it will continue down and Im happy when 2020 arrived we saw now the good value of the bitcoin and that is increasing and hoping it will ,hut again for the second time around the ATH.

What a bold statement by guys like him. haha

Actually, we already saw Bitcoin reaching $10k or even $15k in the Middle year of 2018 BUT that was then and I guess if ever Bitcoin had another surge in value, it would at least not be multiplied by x100. We just know that Bitcoin's value will still fluctuate but no idea whatsoever in reaching $500k.

Well we could agree that we all hope that it would really happen back then and I think he just burst it out because of the hype that is going on back in those days.
If the hype didn't really stop or the price didn't crash down there could be a possibility that his prediction could reach it but he didn't anticipated the crash and took the price jump for granted.

He's just trying to hype bitcoin.
I bet this guy invested a lot.
He won't do such a thing without his own reasons.
But he went too far. I don't know if he really made a good market for bitcoin or he just made it worse.
Well, he is not really that popular. He just thinks so. Grin

Bon Appetit, Mr. McAfee! It´s actually just as much of an uneducated guess as many others, he just made the mistake to put his dick in the equation. He really should get rid of that habit! Did he already responded to the tweets deadline?

I think he did it on purpose just to be the person on the main light, McAfee loves attention and that stunt sure gives him one of the main focus during those times. And he has no intention to fulfill it as proven after the due came to gather another kind of exposure and be the talks of the town. He sure is one of those who does not care about his reputation as long as he get the attention and be the talk of the town.

Do you think that he will do it like for real and in national television ?? Cheesy

At that time, I'm still not into crypto space but when I'm learning I've heard of this tweet and I say "WTF" and didn't believe on what he said. If I'm not mistaken, he said already that he will pass to what he said 3 years ago that he will not do what he said Cheesy

. Fooking stupid person. There was a time where he was so popular that all of the coin he endorsed pump in an instant but that popularity goes down gradually as he fails to his prediction. Well at least he made some money out of the investors at that time Cheesy

McAfee's prediction to me is not a big deal from the start. I'm not even taking it seriously. Just can't believe there are really people who expect that $500,000 BTC in 3 yrs. I mean, I admire the optimism but I always stick to the most realistic thing to happen. Obviously, no one can predict.

On the bright side, Bitcoin got real attention that year because of McAfee's troll, at least. It's Bitcoin after all so even how risky it is, it's worth putting a shot here. I just don't like that he involved in some ICO projects as a supposed advisor that creates hypes at those investors. Those projects aren't even active in development today.

I think no one take McAfee very seriously anymore in this space, everyone who has been in this space since 2017 should have had enough of shilling and unrealistic predictions. He's known for making baseless predictions such as this, no doubt there's a huge potential waiting for bitcoin and it is a sure fact that it will grow in price but no one can actually predict it's price as it is being driven by law of demand and other factors too

I admitted that McAfee is a smart guy who can attract many attention people to read what he says. Although he doesn't know if bitcoin will increase to his prediction price, he still makes the prediction. I guess that he will not admit that he said that, and if the time comes, he will delete his tweet from his page. This year will be the final year for him to see if his prediction will become true or not, and we will see what he will do if his prediction does not happen.

There are more celebrities who have been brand ambassador to different projects. Some has termed to be successful, upon the same those people's names were much used on different projects. Some are even paid, one such person is McAfee. He made good earning out of the cryptocurrencies, and the same made him reveal such a statement. Crypto market isn't perfect as the stock market. So even the experts predictions go away from the reality.

McAfee is known with that 1M btc price challenge for this year but now he had multiple alibis and other words that do redirect the attention of the public and would completely forget on what he had said back in the past.

Of course, no experts nor popular personalities would have precise predictions towards price no matter how well known they are and known in traditional investment and stuffs, it doesnt change up the fact that everything can happen on least expectation.

He might just been dragged in the hype on that time and tell to the public that the price might shoot up for this year but look at on where we know.? We didnt even break the previous ATH.

Or his just to arrogant that he thinks if he says something to the internet everyone will follow him. What he did is just embarrassed himself to the whole world.
Also a correction he's not an expert in Crypto analysis because spouting nonsense to public without any kind of logic is just full of bull.

John McAfee? Well, personally I don't consider that he is an expert. We all know what kind of characteristics he has. He always wants to be famous and he always wants what he said always been heard and also followed by the people in the crypto world. So many booming words or statements from him in this world so far and I think this makes him so proud of it. About this kind of prediction, from what I read, I also don't believe that BTC can reach $500k in 3 years, it is like dreaming and his challenge is really high. Well, don't think too much of him.

In one side, it might a reasonable prediction when we see the price movement at 2017 ago when bitcoin price touched an all time high, I don't at that time I was someone who believe that prediction.

But now, after now his behavior and his activity I might be a someone who hated him in all his word. Telling bitcoin is shitcoin before he reveals that bitcoin will have a high price has pointed out that he just someone who do everything with the ultimate goal is money.
