What if McAfee miss his prediction by one year, and bitcoin reaches 1 million at the end of this cycle?

What would you do? Would you sell all your stash? Would you sell in the way to one million, or only when it reaches that price? 

It's tough to answer right now. There are so many variables that might come into play that we don't think about right now, but will affect our long term game plan.

If Bitcoin ends up reaching prices near the $1 million level, it has probably shown enough strength and demand that I can't see it go back down much lower. I expect similar market behavior as what we see Gold go through. Just for diversification purposes, I will probably cash out 15% to fiat, and convert 25% to Gold. This leaves me with 60% Bitcoin which is perfectly fine with me.  Smiley

I will never sell my entire stash. That's pretty pointless at a stage where it has become a serious enough asset being worth $1 million.

And McAfee? Would he castrate himself? Or would he delay it one year so that, when bitcoin reaches one million, he finds a relief from his own bet? Or would he cook british food in the television and say it was all a joke?

Mcafee has been positive on bitcoin and that means he is holding large units of it. Bitcoin bullish means increase in his assets and whenever is dumping he might be afraid of losing. Most of all this predictions from popular personalities do came from personal interests and the aim is to infect change in bitcoin price through those comments and not allowed healthy corrections or rally to take place.

I think i've seen that prediction somewhere here. Undecided Who was it that predicted 1M in X year that will gonna eat his own dick in public television. I don't know if this was their plan for making such funny prediction just to gain popularity of their name that will be the headlines in any newspaper. For people who do have witnessed the hardship of how Bitcoin struggling for the price that keeps dropping overtime after the bull run.

McAfee said it to be heard all over the news first so that he could find followers which then he used to advertise shitcoins and scam ICOs that paid him a lot of money. so ultimately that statement was made to make him money!
he mainly abused the desperation in some people for wanting to see a ton of profit in unreasonably short time.

Hahaha.Don't post BS here OP. Grin
John McAfee isn't a "popular cryptocurrency expert".
He was a programmer(creating the infamous McAfee anti-virus program,which was more like a virus,instead of an anti-virus,and actually,it was created by his employees,not by him).
He is a really bullish crypto enthusiast and people always keep an eye on his opinions just because he's famous and not because he's an "expert"(he isn't). Grin

LOL! You actually got it right but sadly there are people who do believe blindly with these perma bull shills towards bitcoin which this mccafee speculating things up without any realistic considerations.$1M for 2020? We wont able to reach that point.We even hardly pass 15k this year and next year is already 2020.This do only proves out on how dumb he is.

Although I have never believed in him, I think he is a person who is impulsive in his tweets, personally I do not believe anything, but in this case, he is saying something very true, it is clear that the volatility is enormous but that the trend is bullish, That is very true, in fact with Wyckoff's theory you can check.In this case I support what he says, because I prefer that he instills confidence and security in the movements that come from bitcoin and not be like some bitcoin enemies, which infuse FUD everywhere, in this case I do agree with him.

He is one among the popular personality who often comes up with more price predictions. We don't know what method is being used to predict the market changes. From my view people like John McAfee is required for the market. Whether his predictions come to reality or not, but his statements possibly give a positive thinking about the growth of bitcoin.

and you can't, no matter what, deny his contribution to the space (however bad or good it may be). Wish I had a bit more of that kind of sass.
How exactly did he contribute to this space? Is scamming people a contribution? If that's a yes in your book, then his contribution as con made a lot of people consider crypto a scam and therefore not touch it again.

What bothers me more is that even the more prominent Bitcoiners seem to be cool with this retard. Probably a sign that these Bitcoiners aren't entirely sober or trustworthy either. Cons like to hang out with other cons after all.

His predictions are meaningless too with how he has denied having made certain ridiculously high price calls in the past. He keeps denying having made specific price calls until he is right one day.
One thing that I have learnt from my mentors is t always hold on to a positive aspect of an issue rather than the negative side of it. Mcaffee involvement in cryptocurrency has a negative side and it also has a positive side.

Yes, I agree with you that the thing you said is the bad side of him, which I totally don’t support the way he has been acting, but at the same time, we have to see him as a great influencing factor, who has really influence the crypto industry through his positive predictions about bitcoin, because of his speculation, so many of his believer have all taken step also to at least make effort to have an investment in cryptocurrency, even if I know that some of his predictions are just a way to manipulate the market to his favor, but there is no favor that will come out of his manipulation that we will not also enjoy if we are smart enough.

I would like to ask him the following:

What kind of method does it use to predict bitcoin pricing?

and I hope he doesn't talk about the time traveler again, because would be the biggest craziness of all time. and let's not forget that in a little while we'll laugh a lot when his prediction fails

Wasn't he even taking money for advertising certain tokens/coins on his twitter?

I thought he didn't do that anymore

When it comes to John McAfee and his predictions, first thing on my mind is that old saying, even a broken clock is right twice per day. So same goes for me, he is calling these kind of things all the time, and of course sometime he will be right.
It would be like me calling for snow in the middle of November.sooner or later it will fall Cheesy

He will say like that over and over, especially if bitcoin grow again after it's down. I am not too surprised about that because if bitcoin is down, there will be a time for bitcoin to go up back. But this time, we see bitcoin is down again so we can hope that in the next days, the price will be going up back.

That is what happens in the market, and it always like that. We should prepare for the worst thing that might happen in anytime so we can prevent the big losses. If the bitcoin price is down, we will have a good time to buy more bitcoin so we can get more profit later.

why do people pay so much attention to what this guy says? I do respect him for his style and ability to stay unperturbed, while he does what he used to, but why should i care about his predictions? John simply expresses his opinion, nothing else.. just an opinion based on his vision on how the whole industry will be developing in the near future. All this buzz is coming from the community that craves sensations and always looking for the reason to hype.

I think the reason why many people pay attentioned to him and its also the same reason why I read his tweets and posts from time to time is because of the name "McAfee". Basically for most people who were involved with computers in the last 20 years, know exactly what "McAfee Virus scanner" is.

Its a very popular software and people have used it in the past or they have heard about it in the past. So when the owner of the company is telling people to invest in Cryptos people seems to want to listen to him because they assume that if he was smart enough to start McAfee virus scanner software then they assume he is a very smart and wise man.

What I wanna know is how did he got so much attention from all around the world? I mean newspapers and to or just simply all media gives him way too much credit, I know he is a attention liking guy but nobody in their right mind should give this guy a mic to talk, how does he get all that attention?

He suddenly burst into the scene, I read somewhere that he became interested in crypto or bitcoin in general when he left MGT Technologies. Shift his attention to bitcoin and then make an unusual and out of this world predictions. And suddenly people started to follow him and buying his craft, then became this so called crypto influencer which doesn't make any sense at all.

I get that he once built one of the best anti-virus companies and if I am not wrong he sold it for a lot of money but right now he is literally nobody, he has absolutely no say in bitcoin and he doesn't even seem like a bitcoin expert in the crypto world, we only see him as an idiot. So if these media people just want to get clicks and what not then why are they spending time with him? We don't care and people who are not in crypto don't care neither, so it makes no sense.

He is no bitcoin or even blockchain expert, he just ride the popularity and people started to think that just because he build one of the successful anti-virus in the world and is a (borderline) genius he could probably do good with his predictions in crypto sphere as well. But we all know it won't happen.

I guess it's more so that he's banking on the assumption of the mainstream media that he is a billionaire tycoon. In reality, this dude might still have a couple of million, but he's also an addicted lunatic. If it was just that he wouldn't be as heavily disliked, but this dude is also a fraudster that made millions of dollars with his ICO scam promotions.

People trusted that this 'security expert' "billionaire" wouldn't pull off a scam on them, but he ended doing exactly that. Just think about it, why would a self-proclaimed billionaire tarnish his reputation to make a few million left and right? This dude is toasted. No one takes him serious anymore. He once threatened himself and pretended that people are looking for him.  Cheesy
