What was the worst Bitcoin price prediction for 2020?
# Now that the year is coming to a close, it's time to revisit the worst prediction for Bitcoin in 2020

Bitcoin is currently trading over $29k, but few predicted that would happen at the start of this year.

I did actually, but that is besides the point.

I long ago said bitcoin would make new highs by the end of 2020, though technically I didn't predict it would get to $29k, so technically I am not a Nostradamus.

Anyways, there were many price predictions this year, from some thinking bitcoin would end the year around $7k (I'm looking at you Gavin Smith), to others thinking it might end the year around $50k (I'm looking at you Antoni Trenchev).

There was even a pretty decent call by Fundstrat calling for $20k-$25k.

Like me I'd say they nailed their call pretty well!

But none of the predictions were more outlandish than this one:

Bitcoin to a million dollars or he would eat his junk on TV.

He made this prediction several years ago and has since walked it back saying it was a ruse to get people to talk about bitcoin, but it really wasn't.

A bet's a bet.

I fully expect a video uploaded to Steemit showing Mr. McAfee eating his junk.

Sure he's in prison, but weirder things have happened in prison I am sure.

What's your price prediction for end of 2021?

I am going to say $115k.

$2.20
Exactly. I thought we would top around $10k last time and we went to $20k. Same line of thinking this time around gets us to $200k.

Based on both previous post halving bull market rallies, bitcoin will hit $100k by the end of 2021. In reality, if it follows those previous trends, it will actually get close to $200k by then. I am being conservative with my $100k forecast.

This guy should have just given himself one more year and he might have been right.

Bitcoin will probably hit $1 million at some point, but he was just too aggressive.
