The ongoing miner capitulation suggests Bitcoin is in the process of forming a durable bottom.
“Bitcoin and energy are inextricably linked. The ongoing miner capitulation suggests Bitcoin is in the process of forming a durable bottom. I like the energy money 🟠.”
'Durable bottom forming' claimed 2026-06-16 at $65,617, but price promptly fell to $58,000 and sits at $58,161 — the supposed bottom did not hold.

Bitcoin will be above $99,000 in 2031.
“Even if Bitcoin only appreciates to $99,000 by 2031, the resulting capital appreciation would offset more than 100% of the current dividend obligations of both Strategy and Strive. Personally, I think BTC will be above $99,000 in 2031.”
BTC fell to $57,718 in [2026-06-03..2026-07-01], below the $99,000 floor.

I definitely would not be surprised at all to see $200,000 Bitcoin or $250,000 Bitcoin this year (2025).
“I definitely would not be surprised at all to see $200,000 Bitcoin or $250,000 Bitcoin this year”

Bitcoin needs to be at least in the low $50,000s post-halving for the mining industry to avoid widespread failures.
“What would be, like, a bottom-end but healthy price for the mining industry? I'll put it at the low side of it, low 50s. Okay. If we're in the low 50s, I don't think we'll have too many dead bodies.”
BTC fell to $38,501 in [2023-12-08..2024-12-08], below the $50,000 floor.

Older, less efficient Bitcoin miners (110 TH/s or lower) will not survive post-halving unless BTC reaches $100,000.
“Those aren't going to make it. Like, I can tell you, short of, let's say, $100,000 Bitcoin, none of that's going to make it. So, just in crude terms, like, for the audience out there, like, if you have something 110 terahash per second or lower, that's pretty suspect on the back half of the halving, short of some price explosion.”
BTC fell to $38,501 in [2023-12-08..2025-12-08], below the $100,000 floor.

Bitcoin will soon begin another slow upward ascent after the bear market bottom.
“Everyone is bearish, yet Bitcoin is still trading around the same price it was in June ($17.5k). The mining industry has been decimated, and many of the weak hands (BTC and ASICs) have been purged. Soon we will begin another slow ascent.”
'Slow ascent after the bottom' claimed 2022-12-29 at $16,628; low since $16,326 (bottom held) and BTC ascended to $126,296.

Fairly convinced that a fed pause will mark the Bitcoin bottom and ignite the early stages of the next bull run. We are close.
“Fairly convinced that a fed pause will mark the Bitcoin bottom and ignite the early stages of the next bull run. Exciting times. We are close.”

Bitcoin is at $77,000, but I believe it is going to $7,700,000. Your wealth is melting. Buy Bitcoin.

Bitcoin has three plausible long-run price scenarios: digital gold ($500k–$1m), reserve asset ($5m–$10m), or world currency ($23m+).
“I think there are 3 reasonable outcomes for Bitcoin. 1. 🐻 Digital gold ($500k - $1m) 2. 🔒 Reserve asset ($5m - $10m) 3. 🥇 World currency ($23m+)”
Long-run scenario ranges starting at $500k (digital gold) up to $23m+; multi-decade horizon not elapsed and high since is only $126,296.

The next Bitcoin bull market is on deck and BTC will rise from current levels.
