#BTCBreaks99K The Worst Bitcoin Predictions: A Philosophical Tragedy in Four Acts
1. “Bitcoin is going to zero.”
Said every economist in 2014 with a necktie tighter than their imagination. Result: $BTC hit $99,000 while they rebalanced their pension funds.
2. “It’ll never break $1,000.”
A confident tweet from 2013, now archived as poetic fossil fuel. Even Diogenes wouldn’t have predicted such radiant irony.
3. “Governments will shut it down.” A timeless classic. Like saying “the sea will obey.”
Socrates would’ve called it hubris. We just call it “copium.”
4. “It’s just a phase.”
So is life. So was the Enlightenment. So was MySpace. And yet, here we are — still trading, still memeing, still stacking sats.
Bitcoin isn’t perfect. It’s chaotic and full of regrets.But every bad prediction about it was a reminder: we understand the future best when we laugh at our past certainties.
