Topic: John McAfee called BITCOIN as a Shitcoin! (Read 1109 times)

Lol, he was laid to rest in prison anyway.  I don't think we need to curse him any further to do something with a dead man.  John's life is shown only as a troll, with no views and stances in favor of bitcoin and cryptocurrencies.  To put it bluntly, he's more greedy for money, more profitable.
He certainly made a lot of money from that position after his statements.

RIP to John McAfee, it was been a good ride with this man on hating on bitcoin few years ago but he concede to it eventually and supported bitcoin then. Though he hyped too much that's why many hated him for that kind of act and predicting price over the edge of the cliff, people will certainly remembered from him. We all have our opinion on the market and I still respect him to that of whatever he had done.

Are you talking about Mcafeedex, the decentralized exchange that was setup by this scammer? I didn't even tried creating an account, as I am sure that this guy only care about making profits and nothing else. Anyway, it is a DEX exchange and he may not be able to steal anyone's tokens. But be careful about order book rigging. I know that the chances are very remote, but since we can't trust this guy I am looking at all the possibilities. For my part, I am keeping a comfortable distance from Mcafeedex.

It is just his assumptions and opinions and we should not believe to him. He is a ignorant person who doesn't fully understand the market. He said that bitcoin is a shitcoin because his prediction did not happen. It is better if we will not believe to what he keep saying because it is the best decision that we can do. For those people who keep believing on the opinions of John Mcafee are dumb so it is better if we will ignore him.

John McAfee is a trash! A person that are just being going with the flow without any proof that he must do such things because it is beneficial. Last time he is confidently announced that by the end of this year bitcoin will go high as thousand dollar or million dollar if Im not mistaken, he also says that he will eat his private part but then , now he is telling that bitcoin is shitcoin? I dont know what his basis but, he is really a fool influencial person.

This could be another ploy from him and there's something that's happening positively to the market. As we know, the most popular people in this circle when they want it to become cheaper, they'll make a ploy and say that it's useless, nothing, scam or what.
It's their tactic to drive the prices down and this could be like that but it's not that effective anymore. And that means that if there are still remaining people that listens to what he say, it's now very few.

CSW and McAfee? I think that's the worst combination ever ))

Seriously talking now, I think he is paid to say such things. I recently saw an IG profile (satoshianalysis), which used to behave "normally", starting to be bullish about BSV and saying often that CSW is the real Satoshi. Maybe a coincidence. Or not...

The same goes with his McAfee exchange too, it is shit from the very beginning.
Look like he has missed the bitcoin bull run and getting very salty.

CSW is claiming that he is Satoshi
Now this stupid idiot tells that Bitcoin is a shitcoin.

If CSW really is Satoshi, he and ShitAfee must make a debate regarding this since he is saying that "HIS CREATION" which is Bitcoin is a shitcoin.

What stupid dumbasses we have right now but at least it adds entertainment in the crypto world right?? Lets not be serious always. Its fine that there are shitclowns that making us funny anytime they want . Those who will believe in McAfee are idiots and stupids (and maybe leave here). If you believe in what he is saying then go trust him. Him that promotes different ICO's in the past years but none of them gave profits to the investors. A shitclown (CSW) followed by another shitclown (McAfee). I can't wait to have another one and they must debate to each other in the future .

He is just crypto clown. This tweet worth nothing

he is paid to do those things, imagine how much he has earn from promoting , the real shitcoins , not new the person loss his credibility when the price of bitcoin goes down , and also bets his gun, then in the end take back what he has say, no wonder the people no longer believes him, so the next time you saw the guy post something just scroll down and look for better post, and something useful for the community

A lot of people trusted him during the 2017-18 period, and invested in the ICOs that were promoted by him. Not a single one of those ICOs gave positive returns and many of them turned out to be outright scams. He never apologized to anyone for promoting those scams. When the ICO market died down, he shifted his attention elsewhere. For some time, he was trying to get the Libertarian nomination for the POTUS 2020 elections. But now it looks as if he has cancelled his plans for doing the same.

Why do we pay so much attention to his prediction? He isn't Wolf Messing for crypto space.
I won't change my mind about Bitcoin.

I do not care about the statement from that person. Either he said BTC as shitcoin, of course, it was up to him, he had his own judgment, so did I and you. So do not be bothered, let what people say, as long as I do this happy and do the best I can to take profit. Everyone also has a favorite token or coin so it's up to you. Moreover, MacAfee is paid promoters, right? so every statement he issued must have a certain purpose. So we need to be more selective.

Guy can't even spell DAP right.

If we're still following him and still listening to him and still wondering if there's any worth in it other than for pure entertainment (and even that's starting to lose its shine honestly) then we're probably fully deserving if we get scammed by him.

But sure, go ahead and hug the altcoins. It's "the future".

John McAfee is angry with bitcoin because he realized his prediction was far away from reality...

But while more he talks about bitcoin more people get involved, that's some good quality spam. 

John McAfee is one of the few people I want to ignore in my life, I was so obsessed with this man back in the days because he fully supported the blockchain technology but unfortunately he his behaving like an idiot, I already unfriend him on my twitter account, he doesn't even know what he his saying anymore, what a shame

I know what his last prediction. Now he is saying such things because he did not go to that target. He repeatedly made such comments to get the attention of the crypto community. He is a attention seeker. So we should ignore him. As soon as he gets the attention, he will make such Bs comments again and again.

He is now thinking about the his 2020's prediction. Bitcoin price prediction he gave is absolutely unrealistic. Such a price change in the sort term cannot be realistic in any way.

I wonder what level of sophistication a person must have to actually take his words with all seriousness and make judgements based on his opinion

He is exactly a madman.  What he cares about is money and he has received money to advertise for projects running an ICO as well as projects that have gone into operation.  Consequently, investors lost a lot of money because of Mc Afee's ads.
Bitcoin has the old technology but the way Bitcoin operates ensures that Bitcoin is always decentralized.  The liquidity of Bitcoin is quite good and we can convert Bitcoin to other currencies easily.

This guy John Mcafee is a crazy person we don't need his opinion and obviously he just gain interest in bitcoin and then already predicted it to that it will be at this price.
He's post are obviously useless don't listen to this guy he's crazy he was just a typical investors that become hype and then lose money and then turn to a hater at the end of the day.

He's a person without a word, it implies that he is just trying to manipulate people by promises and since he's famous enough to catch people's attention they get easily tricked that McAfee will definitely do it in national television if bitcoin hits the price of 1 million. However, he alters his own mind as well as his perspective perhaps he's afraid that it may ruin his reputation and dignity. It's the reason why I don't accept anyone's expectation not even from notable individuals because the the price is unpredictable that is why I'll just wait patiently and look for potential opportunities.

So I guess he’s pissed because his prediction wasn’t accurate?  Maybe if his prediction was accurate he would have been the happiest man in earth lol .

Seriously, it’s quite annoying when you make such a prediction and at the end you’re disappointed that your prediction isn’t accurate. That’s why he has made up his mind that Bitcoin is a shit coin. That’s the problem with most of these so called influencers, they feel they can just say whatever they want to say, he feels like he can predict the future of Bitcoin and unfortunately for him it didn’t work. I wonder how much he might have stored in his wallet and waiting for when the price would reach $1 million dollars lmao, he wants to be multimillionaire overnight.

He is just a common cryptocurrency users, just to divert people towards him quite often he comes with price predictions. Earlier if he was left without consideration now he couldn't have come up with this statement. His mentality is to seek attention and show him an expert among the cryptocurrency users. By the time he promote few ICO getting paid. This will easily make people who aren't much aware about his activities. This way he has promoted several ICO and made investors loss their funds.

He maybe a great paid advertiser but every time we bashed him with his useless shilling. He just only gain attention on the mass media whether the publicity is bad or good it still benefit those who viewed his profile for whatever trending it is on social media.

I think many people who doing these stuff are also being criticize but still take a look on their wallet they keeping some huge profits from these word of mouth powers. The prediction he made and dare are obviously an acting so people can get insight on which is to follow but only those who blindly believe him will be affected. But who knows, right? I think everyone here would wanted too to see bitcoin reaches $1million value even its still a non sense dream yet.

He is no longer on the bitcoin bandwagon so no eating dick on TV  .

Seriously, as you have pointed out he is delusional to begin with, I can' recall how John started his career in crypto though, he just suddenly burst into the scene thru his twitter paid altcoin shilling and then his outlandish 1$ million predictions. So we wait for the next personality who can match or even outgunned him as far as shilling cryptos.

Who cares anymore about what McAffee says? The guy is delusional or paid for stating absurd things...

OK, he created an antivirus program, but what did he do in crypto to care about his opinions? He shilled altcoins or ICOs at some point and he created a BTC faucet which never paid (I tested it personally; after delaying the payments they also stopped answering emails) which was also removed from Google Play.

So why care so much about his statements? All that I find interesting about him is what he will say at the end of the year, when he is supposed to eat his own dick

He was just bragging, and indeed that was the tactic he used to influence the price of Crypto in the market by giving enthusiasm and and now he gives us fear by saying that Bitcoin is shitcoin. I won't hear anything he says right now, because for me he is just a brag in the world of Crypto.

from a person like him?it is normal to have a sugar quoted tongue so what he say at first will be bitter sooner.like what you've said at first the coin reached hardcap but now it is dead?obviously it was manipulated and just took money from investors who once trusted them and in the end become a victim of their strategy.

let's just give the man what he wanted to have and that is attention,it seems that John did not get everything from His family so what we are doing here is Favoring him mate.but what comes from His mouth must not treat serious because none of them will be a truthful and usable in our investing career.

and also CSW is at least from the very beginning we already knew that nothing he says is true while McAfee pleasing everybody at first but now taking all from them,what will happen to those who first believe him being a Bullish on Bitcoin?when he predicted a Million dollar value and now claiming this to be a shitcoin?now who will believe him?in the end they were both same person,a Liar at the same thing lol.

After all the pumps he generated through his Twitter account, his motives are obvious. He's becoming irrelevant and he needs to get to the news headlines again so people won't forget him.

This is a man nobody should trust. If he says Bitcoin a shitcoin after literally pumping shitcoins, he's probably not even noticing his contradictory words.

It looks like a final attempt of him to become relevant and a huge manipulator of the markets. He most likely earned a lot by promoting shitcoins.

I don't really care what John McAfee says about Bitcoin because I think maybe he is depressed after losing a lot of money from Bitcoin because before he was very optimistic about Bitcoin and now he starts creating dramas say Bitcoin is shitcoin. this man's words cannot be trusted and we should not make the topic as an important matter because it does not will provide benefits.

TBH I admire McCafé, he's kinda brilliant. He knows exactly what he wants (attention=>money) and gets it. Bitcoin might not go to the moon this year, but that I can't say about McAfee's private savings

Majority of us do knows on how this man talks and advertise coins for his own benefit.He do talks positively towards BTC
but now he's turning his back on it and telling that this one is a shitcoin? For sure he would say such thing because his prediction
didnt happen as he anticipated or does simply shows that he's trying to divert us to the issue or the deal about eating his d*ck
if this price prediction didnt happen and now he praises up other coins? What a pathetic man.

This guy is seeking so much attention and we keep giving it to him. John McAfee is two sided and we won't know which side he's on. Today may be his day to support ABC coin and when tomorrow comes, you see him supporting another coin.
This guy has made so many people lose money through hype & manipulation. He isn't the one that's gonna decide BTC movement, we are the market force that's going to drive price either sideways.

His motives are plain enough - make a lot of money saying whatever people want to hear or what they pay him to say. Bitcoin pays him nothing. Shitcoiners certainly do and they'll love to hear this.

It's hard to see where the subterfuge is. It's all out in the open.

The difference is that CSW is a delusional man while mcafee is acting like this to get all the attention and possibly manipulative to his audiences. Atleast with CSW you can see that he's outright lying once he couldn't prove what he stated while McAfee is kinda hard to know and always full of motive.

Many crypto users hated how McAfee manipulates the market before with his own hype, Market go crazy before and make the hyped people angry today because of the loss they got before and the cause of that is McAfee and then now he's telling a bad statement about bitcoin. This proves that we still don't need a hype man like him, We can't trust liars.

I'm sure his tweet is redirecting on a certain altcoin that contradicts his statement about bitcoin.

Some people will call this man a liar, but I think it would still be wiser to use the term manipulator. He has made a lot of money because it has attracted the attention of a lot of people who have no idea what Bitcoin is, pumping their dreams to unprecedented heights without any real basis. Then he started a costly charged announcement on his Twiter because it literally became popular overnight. On his statement of $1 million per BTC, he actually promoted a whole bunch of shitcoins - why are you wondering now that he turned the saw upside down.

While some wonder why he calls Bitcoin shitcoin, the reason is that he wants to get as much attention as possible again, this time with a completely reverse tactic.

There is a very similar thread The next action of Old man McAfee.

He is owner of McAfee company. He must have taken care of his repute. First he says he will eat his D*ck and now the same coin is shit coin, nothing but a hypocrisy.

Is he drunk or what, after shilling coin and singing hallelujah now he is calling it a shitcoin, this guy made millions at the expense of Bitcoin than he did in anti-virus, now he is making a big turn around, worst time to pick the time when Bitcoin is gaining a huge momentum on the price, it's understandable if Bitcoin is going down, he is insane.

It seems he is going to reveal a new coin's name to promote that hard, that's why he is trying to manipulate people by telling Bitcoin is shit. I stopped following him years ago because he is not good for crypto in any way, he just takes payment to promote ICO coins and predicts shit things.

In a nutshell, John McAfee is the new CSW of 2020. Both of them just want us to get angry and negative about them so they can get on the news. I couldn't care less If all bitcointalk threads about them (including one of my own I admit) were nuked out of orbit tomorrow.

Probably he wants to involved in another project that will be more shitter than the ones he has already created. One thing I know about John is that; whenever he wants to embark on a new project, he always create notice me before proceeding to that shitcoin project. Let be careful about his coming project. Maybe at this time he needs more attentions from cryptocurrency enthusiasts.

This proves how untrustworthy this man is?that no words coming from His mouth must be believe in?just few months ago he predict bitcoin will Hit a million Bucks and will eat his p*nis if he fails,but recently late last year he also retract His prediction and posted this in twitter ,and now here we go again,Bitcoin is a Shitcoin?now for sure those who once Believe in him are now backing off and forgetting that once they believe what this stupid person says.

Do we really need to give some attention this stupid shit? I don't think so.

He has many followers yes but what he is saying right now is just pure stupidity. He can just say things like this and things like that just like he is saying one two three to his friend. He can say anything about Bitcoin but the final decision will be on the followers and the investor who read his tweet. I don't want to spend any second reading his tweets too. I will just waste my time if I will do that.

On the other hand, for some experts it can consider a bullish move because if you are a contrarian.

This just shows that he is a man without a word. After giving prediction about the price of bitcoin, even making a promise but now his eating his own words instead of preparing how to eat his own dick, by saying Bitcoin is a shitcoin. He is just like any other people who likes getting attention. Though I don't really want to give my attention to John McAfee because it's obviously a waste of time. He's no worthy of our time.

John seems to have lost it this time around because i remember him sharing some anticipation towards the bull run of bitcoin and now he is saying the opposite. Anyway, people are free to share their opinions just let them not get to you, brush it off and move on. This should not be given the attention that  we are giving it, let's focus much more on the developments of Lightning network and how it would improve upon the scalability of bitcoin.

McAfee is an absolute tool.

Anybody who believes anything he says, or considers him to be some kind of industry expert should think again, because he's so out of touch with things it's insane.

Sure, smart contracts are ideal, but BTC is designed to be a transactional unit, not god damn gas for a smart contract platform—it's not ether!

With that said, there are plans to expand its smart contract functionality, and various side chains add smart contract functionality to BTC. Also, how on earth is he saying is has no security? it has the most proof-of-work of any blockchain in existence and is practically unhackable now.

I do agree it's clunky, but with the advent of lightning and other off-chain scaling solutions, Bitcoin will fullfill its purpose just fine.

Cash money has no functionality other than a store of value and a unit of transaction—and look how well that did!

Why would we even entertain his tweets or prediction?
It is clear that he is just asking for it he just need to move on people doesn't really give a crap about his opinion nowadays.
Or it is just his way for people to forget his big statement about Bitcoin price reaching Million $ or he would eat his own d*ck.

He had quite an impact on the alts in the good old days. Just a tweet and coin got pumped or dumped. That was back in the day when alts were used to make a quick buck. He use to be much more entertaining before, now it's just a politics - running for president just to get away with all the avoiding taxes thing.
It's just another pathetic way of seeking attention.

Ah well, at least the useful purpose he is serving right now is as counter indicator. Him being bullish on Bitcoin yielded absolutely nothing, so him turning bearish is what I consider bullish.

In the end, it shouldn't come as a surprise that when people become broke or make some poor investment decisions where they have few Bitcoins left, they become a shitcoiner hoping that their bags will pump hard and make up for the losses suffered. You can't go back in time to buy Bitcoin at $500-$1000 but you can hope that your cheap shitcoins pump to the moon.

McAfee is criminal on the run. A drug addict. A compulsive liar. Can't think of anything good that he did for the space in general.

Its better if we start ignoring people like McAfee, whose sole intention is stay in limelight, by any means possible,
as it helps in keeping his reputation, and which he uses to cash it to money. Crypto don't need people like McAfee, we are better off without him.

It's the same guy as wants to run for president of the USA

People should stop giving him attention. This is the same guy who got a Skycoin tattoo to shill it. Let's not forget about the dozens of shitcoins he shilled, how are all those coins doing?

This guy is paid to shill shitcoins, of course he'll do what he can to make Bitcoin look bad. Just ignore him and remind him of his tweet a year from now.

Probably, he's being payed by an altcoin sponsor or altcoin supporter just to discredit bitcoin and put it down. But intelligent and wise minds will never believe without proof and ignore those negativity about a certain thing. Bitcoin is the most used cryptocurrency in the world, with that, there's no way bitcoin is a shitcoin. Altcoins are the real shitcoin because it is just an alternative and temporary coin for bitcoin. Its price are very low compared to BTC. Someday, I know that he will understand what we're saying when bitcoin will be pumped again 3 to 5 years from now.

ikt is OK because we are also calling him "Sh*t McAfee" he contributes nothing in this forum but stupid predictions and all His worthless promises.
he Should named that for Himself because after claiming Bitcoin will reached 1 million and now here he is?calling bitcoin as Shitcoin?
if not escaped then better to be Put inside mental institution lol,he has no place here in outside world because he speaks more  falls than truth.

That is why we need to understand the essence of not speaking in final. Most of the time, we predict and speculate about things that we are proud and sure of, but it not always turns to be true since many outside factors could affect the market. I my self is with John McAfee when he claims about these speculation before, the reason is because the hypes he's creating do really affects somehow to the demand of people to bitcoin, though, the negative effects is when his speculation proved to not be true, people might lose interest to bitcoin.

This guy first ruins his reputation by making outlandish claims about Bitcoin prices, and then suddenly starts bashing bitcoins to appear as a sane person who can lead America, but in my opinion he’s a joke and we all should avoid listening to what he has to say. Furthermore I’m worried about his state of mind, as he has labelled Bitcoin as a shit coin and we all know that Alts are the real shit coin.

Who care John FakeAfee? He doesn't respect himself, so why should we respect or care about his shit comment? Just remember, if you do not respect yourself then no one else will respect you. He is a proven shit coin paid promoters. Most of his predictions become wrong. Now again he want make drama about bitcoin. Because no one paying him for promote bitcoin, and that's the matter. I can't see any effect on bitcoin price trend due his shit comment. He is the real asshole. Just ignore any predictions and comment came out from John FakeAfee. I always avoid his predictions & comments, because he don't know what he is saying. Its look like a mad.

Apparently he is a funny fella  for me everyone who does stuff like that are people who apparently escaped from the mental institution and failed to find a hope or new way..
They don't even know how they are contradicting their own statements and how people notice that..
They just want to be on the news since it's been a while that their life gave them any fruitful success .

Some people can do anything for money, it is good to laugh for a minute but never retweet or share such messages because this is what they want.

"You can kill a book quicker by your silence than by a bad review.”
― E.A. Bucchianeri

they want "publicity" no matter if it's cheap. some say "there's no such thing as bad publicity"

this person is so funny. when I see the screenshot above, it makes me smile. when he was so sure that the price of bitcoin would reach $ 1 million by the end of this year, he said that it was shitcoin, did he want to eat the d*ck? LOL, this is very funny. it's just that I believe that there are a few problems that befell him. despite saying that, it seems like he really invested heavily in bitcoin in 2017, and got into trouble until he wrote like that

so this is His revenge from being trolled as he break his own prediction so safer from eating His Private part?
this is what happen if people talk too much and not anticipating what will be the truth to happen.
actually i am not angry with John instead i feel sad for him being like this,i know he is much smarter than what he portraying to be one.

Its look like Mcafee sold all his bitcoin after creating hype last time
This is one of the reasons why we need to stay away from those people who make speculation without basis
Some of them is just using their follower and take advantage of those people to make a better profit
and now he is giving a negative statement it looks like he wants to buy some cheap bitcoin again.

Doesn't really matter what John McAfee said or will going to say at this point because he is being paid to shill other altcoins. As for his exorbitant Bitcoin prediction, LOL, we all know that it ain't gonna happen, only those who are blindly follow him really thinks that it can reach $1 million.

No sane people are willing to eat his manhood in front of the public, that alone doesn't make sense for not so 'dumb' crypto enthusiast. He just gain more haters now, by making a sudden U-turn.

Just by turning around on his challenge that he will eat his dick if Bitcoin did not reach $1 million this 2020 is enough to ruin his reputation, and the worst thing is calling Bitcoin a shitcoin this cut the line on his sanity, I don't think people should be posting here what this guy is saying, from shill he is now a fuders and he is good at being a fudder.

It's pretty clear, old johnny boy is having substance abuse issues.
He was comparing btc with hotmail.
Next he will be talking to beanie-babies in his next life...

The guy is being hyped because of his shills of altcoins and being a "con" artist. Convicted artist?  
And we are biting it?
Look how deep is the digging we had to make just to know him better.
I don't really like it but he is good at making people angry and that what makes him more viral.

I guess it ain't about being bad or good anymore in social media.
They can take anything and be interested even with statements that are bullshits.

His prediction is quite a bubble. Reason why you shouldn't believe this guy about his prediction.


This is a nice meme, be careful you might pull the trigger dude if btc doesnt reach your target price!

• No balls, changing statement, no prolific answer to simple question to him.
• Created his own dex and making lots of projects listed there and can't comprehend breached when he got criticized.
• Continue to proclaimed his self as a great advisor to those new projects. Yeah how much money did they promised? you geek rat!
• Finally, he is somehow like CW who is only goal is to shill and shill until the news about it become a trend. Maybe we can change his alias to Trend Warrior.

Mr. John McAfee is now showing his true colors. And I am not any more wondering why there are many people in the world of cryptocurrency who are not taking him seriously as an influencer. He seems to be suffering from some form of dementia. The best reason why he is now bashing Bitcoin can be because all of his price predictions may not be coming true. Well, in the first place, who in his own right mind would even "joke" that he will eat his own stick bread in front of live audience in case his prediction will fail? That is an utter nonsense, in the first place. The man is just really an attention seeker, and he is attacking Bitcoin this time to once again stir the nest and get the focus of us. No, John we have other things to do, sorry.

John McAfee word should not be taken that so important. he is the one that says bitcoin will attain 100k in year 2019 and all failed. he is the a man that always eats his own word. This will not be the end, more will still come in form of a drama as always

From the beginning, I've suspected this man was a bit strange and seemed hard to trust. I still remembered once he stated, "Bitcoin will reach $1 million at the end of 2020". It was nice news for Bitcoin holders but no sense at all, likely to make a sensation only. If today he said that Bitcoin is a shitcoin, I'm not surprised. I doubt that he never made a statement based on his real own research. He seems to say anything in order to make people uproar. So, just enjoy it but never think about it too much!      

This man might be going through something, he doesn't have an stable mind due to his high intelligence, the fact that he predicted bitcoin to reach $1 million in just a short term, we shouldn't be surprise him calling bitcoin as Shitcoin because nobody believes him anymore, .. except the morons.

I don't really know what's got into this man. All what he's saying doesn't make any sense. Previously, he was so bullish into Bitcoin and now, he's having a complete turnover.

Less security isn't really a fact. Bitcoin has been up for a significant decade, and just proves that it has been resilient to attempts to its network. Unlike other shitcoins that are only living through hype, with no utter sense.

He likes publicity stunts and media attention and that is how he makes his money, selling advertisement space for saying non sense through his social media pages and promoting scam projects, guess how many scam shitty projects John McAfee advertised through his social media pages promising his fans that he had first hand knowledge about the legitimacy of the project and then they vanish, there were many projects where John McAfee promoted through his social media pages. He is a scammers and cannot be trusted and he should be avoided.

The word Trust is not there is his dictionary and how can he fulfill anything.

Just another ploy on his side to get the needed attention, sort of to boost his name into the discussions again. For sure once he exposed himself and tell everyone that his predictions are not going to happened, perhaps his bitcoin maximalist supporters abandon him.

So needed another sort of news, now contradicting himself, but it doesn't matter. We crypto enthusiast knows that people like him are not to be trusted anyways.

That's what happens when someone isn't getting anything from something that used to make hin money just a few years ago. I'm pretty sure McAfee is paid to say these things on twitter knowing the dude's dealings with other shady coins back then to make a quick buck. He used to be one of bitcoin's greatest defender (and a maximalist too) but then everything shifted when bitcoin's price fell a ton on 2018.

Also, knowing how hurt his ego was when bitcoin never reached his model's projection, John was the laughing stock of the crypto community. Of course, what better ways are there to retaliate than fo defame something that brought you shame right? Just don't bother the man. He's too old for all these things and not making money off of bitcoin anymore.

This old fart again.What he's spouting in twitter is all for his self-benefit, this one tweet clearly is an attempt of him to lure people into using alts therefore stimulating the influx of capital to the alts specifically that he's shilling for knowing that at the moment alts is being supressed by bitcoin dominance, unfortunately some people out there are still believing what this old delusional man is saying.
If what determines a good coins are those gimmicky features like dapps, smart contract or whatever which actually has no real use case in real life, every newborn altcoins would dominate the market but no, that's not how it works.

He doesn't need to be heard. He don't have his words with him, remember about the promise about eating his tool but what now? after realizing that the price is too far from his prediction and now, he states that it's not going to happen anymore. I agree that we should stop paying attention to him anymore. Before, I'm giving him my attention because I've seen him as a bitcoin supporter and enthusiasts but from time to time, it had changed and things are getting worse for every statement that he gives.

Is he someone important for cryptocurrencies? I don't think so.

To me John is not even an Internet celebrity. He has some money but he's not a millionaire. He's also not someone whose advice you'd follow or tell your friends to follow. He's a businessman but there are millions of people like him around the world. Would you care if the owner of your local pub told you that Bitcoin is worthless? I wouldn't and I don't care about McAfee's opinion.

There should be nothing to worry about here. John would say whatever he likes to say though and as a matter of fact, he seemed to be sincere about all of the negativity that he spreads about bitcoin. I've been hodling bitcoin since early 2017 and had already profited a lot from it, even so, I am still open about the idea of something else that will take over it. In my honest opinion, BCH, XRP, and LTC serve the purpose better than BTC. Be that as it may, BTC might not be a shit coin after all.

I really don’t want to hear news about those guys and ever since I came into this market, they all have their own claims about bitcoin but of course I don’t listen to them. Bitcoin is not a shitcoin, it is already proven by the supporters  and its good to share this one to tell people that John is lying and trying to mess with us, bitcoin is the best and for sure John will regret what he said to bitcoin.

And so what? I don't understand why people get upset because of some silly statement of some so called Bitcoin expert. That what McAfee thinks about Bitcoin doesn't influence it in any way and it isn't important for community. So just stop following such news and such people, they are not important in Bitcoin world.

CWS, Ver, McAfee - can we just stop making news out of these people's tweets and statements? Who cares what they think, they don't decide anything in Bitcoin's ecosystem, they can only influence their shitcoins, because they have created them as a tool for their pump and dump schemes. You only help them maintain their popularity even if you report only negative news about them.

This is a man who didn't even know BTC has had a previous halving.

His living has been accepting large amounts of money to talk about whatever shitcoin paid him that week. He has achieved literally nothing in cryptoland. My bum has more credibility. And better hair.

What an idiot. I guess we can guess who is paying him to make those lies. The nerve to say Bitcoin has no security, heh. I hope he moves all his fortune to the altcoin foundation or group that is probably paying him to make those lies, but knowing him, he probably doesn't even own any crypto anyway.

It seems you can pay him to make it say literally anything. It is a mystery why people keep paying attention to him.

I don't care what this guy thinks in the best of times and I certainly am not paying him any mind with this statement.

I would also point out that the market disagrees with McAfee, as it's giving a very high valuation to bitcoin and a much lesser one to coins like ETH that do have the smart contract capability and so forth. 

"Shitcoin" is a very subjective term, and I'm sure if you asked 100 crypto geeks what one is you'd get 101 different answers--but I don't think bitcoin or ETH are shitcoins, and they can coexist very peacefully.  There are so many coins out there, and there's no need to be militantly opposed to any of them.  Everybody has got their favorites, and personally I'm fine with that.  Just tune out comments like McAfee's and you'll sleep better at night.

We should stop giving stage to paid promoters like John. He used to get paid to pump shitcoins and made a lot of money on other people's gullibility and misfortune.
Is he really a face of crypto? Should he be?

What did he do since he joined the scene? Started as a Bitcoin believer, made some predictions that did not come true, gave some strange interviews while drinking and smoking, looking stoned and having boduguards with him. Got famous in the internet when he promised to eat his dick, then started selling himself to any shitcoin dev that was ready to throw serious money at him. Had to run and hide from the government because he doesn't like paying taxes. Probably liked Bitcoin so much because it allowed him to launder his money, avoid taxes and buy coke on deep web, but then he found even more anonymous altcoins, so now Bitcoin is bad and altcoins are good...

And let's not forget about his dick. He's not going to eat it because it was all a lie to pump Bitcoin - that's what he said! If he starts talking about some great altcoin projects in future you'll know what to stay away from.

John McAfee, who once anticipated that bitcoin would reach $1 million before the current year's over, has been bashing the main digital money. As per McAfee, bitcoin is a shitcoin.
Based on the progression of his tweets, John bashed bitcoin as he tweeted " “Bitcoin – Old, clunky, no security, no smart contracts, no Dapps – is the true shitcoin.” Although John compliments altcoin and said that we all realize that the fate of crypto rests with the altcoins.



It looks like McAfee contradicts his own statements which prove that he can't even stand for his own words and that makes him a liar. He keeps on insisting that his prediction is going to happen and he even claimed that he's going to eat his own dick on national television if bitcoin won't hit 1 million USD by the end of the year 2020.

John McAfee's prediction isn't deserving of trust since it's clear that he can't even fulfill his promise. It just makes me wonder why he concludes that bitcoin is a shitcoin in spite of it being beneficial and profitable for the past few years. It has given us opportunities to improve our lives that's why it is unreasonably difficult for me to analyze his statements. I mean it's a top one cryptocurrency, it had gain so much trust and reputation. It even overcomes various challenges and problems then now bitcoin is now accepted and adopted by different countries, it was also supported by some government. In the current status of the market, bitcoin is slowly increasing and it might even end up on another bull run. Personally, I think bitcoin isn't a shitcoin, it's one of the most valuable assets that we can have.
