KEY POINTS [/i]
1> Draper previously predicted that bitcoin would top $250,000 by the end of 2022.
2> He told CNBC that $250,000 “is still my number” despite the digital coin’s more than 60% drop this year.
3>The venture capitalist is extending his prediction by six months.
There has been series of speculations from different angles throughout this year about the price of bitcoin rising. As we were approaching the year 2022 many persons speculated february as the period from when the boom rise in price will take place, others claimed middle of the year while some speculated it to take place around the end of the year but from all indications bitcoin price at different intervals defeated these speculations with a different outcome.
And now here, we have a veteran capitalist Tim Draper who strongly believe bitcoin will hit $250,000 by the middle of 2023 despite how wounded the industry has been for many persons recently with it falling price. What really caught my attention about Draper prediction is that he ones made such kind of prediction in 2014 about bitcoin rising to $10,000 in the next three years of which bitcoin took flight to about $20,000 in 2017, and now same man has come up with another prediction just like in 2014. But contrary to Draper's prediction, another renowned investor in the industry, Mark Mobius in an interview with CNBC he claimed bitcoin could crash to $10,000 next year. And this was same man that well speculated the drop of bitcoin to $20,000 this year, of which we saw how bitcoin price did turned out.
After going through the article I got perplexed at a point on which side of the divide to pair my thought with, could it be that this is just another mind game these men are pulling for the approaching year. Cause for me I think both predictions could affect and drive confusion into the minds of other average traders/investors based on the underlying fact that this two men have made predictions in the past about bitcoin price and the results of their prediction's we're in line as given.
