Brock Pierce and Tom Lee forecast BTC price of $ 200,000 for 2022

 


Although they were wrong in their prediction that Bitcoin ( BTC ) would rise to $ 100,000 in 2021, former Block One chief strategist Brock Pierce and Fundstrat Global Advisors co-founder Tom Lee predict that Bitcoin will rise in 2022 Could go up to $ 200,000.


This doubles their forecast for 2022, even though Bitcoin hit its last all-time high of $ 69,000 on November 10 and BTC is currently at $ 46,270.


Lee predicted a rate of $ 200,000 for BTC in a panel discussion on December 23. He explained:


"So, maybe Bitcoin is in the $ 200,000 range. I mean, I think this is doable, and I know it sounds awesome, but it's very useful."

Lee stuck to his BTC price forecast of $ 100,000 for 2021 in October after ProShares launched the first exchange-traded Bitcoin fund (ETF) in the United States.


At the time, he also predicted Bitcoin ETFs would attract at least $ 50 billion over the next 12 months. American Bitcoin ETFs currently hold approximately $ 1.5 billion in assets in the offerings of Valkyrie, VanEck and ProShares.


Pierce told Fox Business on Wednesday that it is "conceivable that the price climbs to over $ 200,000 for a short time and then falls back again."


In a Jan. 22 article , Pierce cited $ 100,000 as the high end of the range for 2021:


"There really aren't many levels at which I expect Bitcoin to resist. We could hit between $ 70,000 and $ 100,000 by the end of the year. But not without fluctuations, of course."

In fairness to Pierce, the lower end of the range was actually hit on November 10th.


The popular Bitcoin analyst PlanB has made a name for itself with its price predictions and its stock-to-flow model. On June 20, PlanB correctly predicted that BTC would hit $ 63,000 in October. However, he was wrong with his forecasts for November and December, which were $ 98,000 and $ 135,000, respectively.


PlanB has defended its predictions, claiming that its statistical models are accurate to within one standard deviation. Although he was wrong with his price predictions, he said in a tweet on Saturday:


"A standard deviation between $ 50,000 and $ 200,000 looks very broad. So some people think that this makes the S2F model invalid and not useful. But is it?"

Ballet Crypto founder and CEO Bobby Lee predicted on CNBC's Squawk Box March 22nd that BTC would soar to $ 300,000 this year. That was one of the most ambitious forecasts that did not materialize this year.



All of these unrealized forecasts from public figures show that one should do their own research when it comes to cryptocurrency investments and view price forecasts as a fun city rather than a safe forecast.

From offchain to offchain: Statechains meets Lightning

  Without a doubt, the most significant off-chain Bitcoin solution is the Lightning network. But in its wake, the statechain has emerged as an intriguing replacement. There is currently a proposal to link the two offchain networks. From an ocean, for example, you can see sunbeams glistening in the water, waves rippling, and possibly a jellyfish drifting toward the light. But you only see a small portion of it. The distance from the sea's surface to its bottom is hundreds of meters. It has dozens of different fish species swimming in it, crabs and starfish crawling on the bottom, shells clinging to rocks, and sea plants climbing up. A completely new world starts where your gaze diverges. You can picture a blockchain like Bitcoin, just like the sea. What you see on the outside is only a small portion of what is actually there; the set of UTXOs (coins) and transaction history that full nodes store are just the beginning of a much larger world. It's the plan, at least. With Bitcoin...

Phishing attack on popular crypto sites tries to empty wallets

  Several major crypto sites such as Etherscan, CoinGecko, DeFi Pulse, and others report malicious pop-ups scammers use to try to trick users into connecting their MetaMask wallets. The phishing attack came from a domain displaying the Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC) logo. "We are investigating the root cause of this attack to fix the threat as soon as possible," CoinGecko founder Bobby Ong tweeted. The phishing attack appears to have been triggered by a malicious ad script from Coinzilla, a crypto ad network, according to CoinGecko. Etherscan also advises its users not to confirm any transactions that may appear on the website. The attackers attempted to use the hype around the “bored monkeys” non-fungible tokens (NFT) to gain access to the cryptocurrencies of unsuspecting website visitors. Although the websites affected by the scam attempt have reacted in the last few hours and deactivated the advertising pop-up, it is still recommended not to connect your MetaMask wallet to ne...

Bored Ape Yacht Club NFTs stolen through phishing on Instagram

  Bored Ape Yacht Club ( BAYC ) developers announced on Monday that hackers have hijacked the official Instagram page of the popular NFT collection and posted links to a fake airdrop. Crypto enthusiasts who connected their MetaMask wallet to the rogue website subsequently had their Ape NFTs stolen. Apparently, the attack was planned to coincide with the one-year anniversary of the BAYC collection. This increased the "perceived credibility" of the phishing link. About 100 NFTs are said to have been stolen in the phishing attack . According to CoinGecko data , the minimum price for a BAYC NFT is 139 Ether ( ETH ) or $400,726. So if reports are correct, over $40 million worth of NFTs were stolen in the attack. These numbers are only the lowest estimate, however, as they are based on the lowest price.  At the time of writing, it was still unclear how the hackers gained access to BAYC's official Instagram account. Social media users have pointed out the importance of two-fact...
