Every Bitcoin "Guru" To Be Exposed - You're Invited!
Added:Hello everybody. I think it's time that we really start to talk about price predictions, what's going on in the background, and just the outrageousness of it. And I personally believe that the people that are watching this video and a whole host of people, they can actually beat the pros and the gurus for all these different ramifications and and uh price predictions. But we'll see how it goes. And we'll talk about the website that actually do that. Well, before we get into it, Jerry from Costa Rica, how you doing today, buddy?
>> I'm having a great day, Rob. I hope everybody else is, too. Boy, the weather is incredible. The view out my window is so spiritually uplifting that this is perfect. We're doing a podcast. We're going to share. We're going to interact.
And I get to look out at paradise. It's a great day.
>> It's a great day. Yeah. Here in Texas right now, it's a it's a nice balmy 76 degrees. Beautiful outside. that little overcast. I you you really can't beat it. Health is wealth. And I got to tell you, if you're stressing out too much, I don't think you're really should. And we'll talk about the wise. But before we get into talk about price profits and the things that I added, which is going to allow every single person to put in their price prediction, I just wanted to go over some things, which is this video.
So, this was when the heck was this?
November November 19th, 2025.
And when we talked about this, there was there there was two things. First, I I wish I would have done better with with driving this point home. And the second thing was, why didn't anybody tell me I needed a haircut? Look at me. Look at that. That head enormous. Looks like a uh anorexic Johnny Bravo or something.
So, I'm going to play the first minute and a half of this and uh then we're going to start to talk about price profits and how the individual person is going to be able to put in their own price prediction. So, take a listen to this real quick. Hello everybody.
Welcome to the Wednesday live stream and I have to tell you what an awful day it is. The sentiment is probably probably the lowest I've ever seen it. And that is with FTX, Voyager, Celsius, BlockFi, and everything collapsing around us where we have massive uh depreciation of valuation of of markets all across the board. It just seems like today is one of those days where everything comes to a crux and uh if you have to say it, it's all over. So, it was a good time.
know any I'm not here to give anybody hope or do anything that uh is outside the ordinary. It's looking pretty bad and that's pretty much how it is. So I just going to ask you if uh if you're here to complain that's fine. We'll have the Q&A section later and I'll listen to all those complaints. But uh just remember that for this time that uh it'll probably get much worse than what it is right now. And uh you have to make that decision for yourself. We've been talking about this the last couple of year couple of weeks which is do you need to sell and get out because I think most not most I'd say a good amount of you do because you you're over your skis especially the ones that are are here new ones that have been here for a long time two three cycles or so maybe not. I can't tell you what to do. I'm not your dad. But I'm just telling you if you need to sell I need you to sell and get out and get out now. I want you to sell.
I want you to sell everything. I want you to sell all your Bitcoin. I want you to sell all your altcoins. I don't want you to come back because the only time this gets better is when everybody just starts selling. And I'm tired of waiting. So, what are you waiting for?
Sell and get out. I don't want you here.
Yeah, what a jerk. But uh I mean uh again I wish I would have done this you know weeks ago. Again this was on November what the heck was this? November 19th which historically speaking November 16th wasn't a bad time. Roughly the price was 94,000. Ethereum was 3,000.
XRP was 221. BNB was almost a grand.
Tron was 29 cents. It wasn't so. And Cardano 48 and so on and so forth. So again, I I I can't preface it enough that uh I think I missed some things. I didn't hit the top. I really wish I would have and uh we didn't, but I mean, you know, it wasn't too bad. So, what I want to do is I want to bring in I want to lift up the ones that are right and expose the ones that are wrong. And because of that, I made this website called Price Profits. Actually, I didn't do it. It was Claude. Claude does everything for me now pretty much as far as like taxes and then you know if I happen to go through an audit find all the different information creating websites breaking down websites showing me the the different ways and and what I did was I said let's just do this there was in the beginning I just said let's just track the quote unquote gurus who are making these price predictions because they're some somewhat outrageous and uh I I think Peter Brandt's going to be right look at this 40 to 60k September October 26, Crypto Rover, Dr. Protet, who I Dr. Provit, who I had no idea this was. Claude pulled together and I think he's going to be right too.
Uh, Peter Schiff, probably not. But then you get, you know, the crazies with their price predictions. Bernsteeen 150 to at the end of year 2026. Time's ticking. Uh, Samson Mau 1 million 2026.
So on and so forth. But this is all great, but a lot of these guys are going to be wrong again. And uh there's a link in the description where I take a look at the top price predictions in 2021 and 2025 and everybody was wrong. I think the majority this is where things should go to which is pros vers as I call it.
Let me see if I can bring this up.
So, the pros versus Joe's is where I'm going to allow you, everybody who's watching, everybody who's on Twitter, everybody who can find this website, and I want you just to go here and put in your prediction. And I don't with the with the professionals, with the pros, the gurus, I have to verify everything.
But with you, just throw it in there and we'll graph everything. So, your name or handle. And you don't even have to leave your name. I don't care. What the price is and by when and where did you make this call. You can put it on your if you put it on an X account or on here on the live stream or you can just leave it blank. I just want to be able to graph this out and see what people's consensus are because if you're here now, you're in the bare market, you're smart enough to realize that this is where all the money's made. And if you're smart enough to realize this is where all the money's made, you probably done a heck of a lot of research. And maybe you're in a TA, maybe you're not. But I think that you probably can do a pretty darn good job, more so than the gurus, and put it on here and let's graph it. I don't want to use Kiy. I don't want to use Poly Market because that those sites are manipulated as well because all those people are just trying to move their their different price predictions and whatever predictions that they are so they can make a ton of money. I don't want to deal with that. I want to deal with you.
So for you to put that in there, it'd be great. But then also, we have to think about this. What about if these things get taken down? So, like we talked about before, let me go back here. But the website itself, let's take a look at uh let's see Arthur Hayes.
Arthur Hayes saying it's 125K.
And when you click on see the call, it'll take you to I believe it's the website of where he made that call. And then it links to his ex account. But then also over here the archive this goes to like we said before the way back time machine and it takes a snapshot so you can't delete it. So, that's for the pros. And right now, I have to tell you, there's a lot of uh some good some good suggestions for the pros. And I need to to vet all this stuff out, but these are price predictions moving from January 1st, 2026 forward.
There are some people that made some pretty good calls that I had no idea they did that, like Blockchain Backer.
And there is a link to his to multiple uh YouTube videos that he did and his X account. Actually, no, I take that back.
I think it's just X. Excuse me. And this is where he called the top and the bottom and so on and so forth. Adam Livingston, 750,000 by July. I'll take a look at that. Michael retirement. Okay.
Crypto snuck one in. And then also through James and Invest Answers. And then of course here's mine.
End of year 55,000. We'll see if that's correct. I don't think that's going to work out, but we'll see. So anyhow, let me know what you think about that in the comments section. Jerry, what do you think about all this stuff?
>> Love it. I love it. I can't tell you how many experts I've listened to give rational explanations for their predictions.
And I was always curious if there was a way to easily get the receipts, right? Because they speak with such confidence and and assurityity that they seem to understand the fundamentals that they're basing their prediction on only to never know were they right or wrong. Yeah.
>> How do you know? Right. I mean, it it's it's one of those one of those type of deals. And that little widget that you made, that tool is a way to do that.
>> I think so. And and I want to reiterate or make something very clear. This isn't a gotcha website. That person's wrong.
That person sucks. This is awful. What it is is to take a look at who gets it right moving forward. So then you can say, okay, well, you know, confidence-wise, this person made a pretty good call here and I can extrapolate that and maybe I can follow a little bit more. So anybody who, you know, if if you follow a particular, you know, public figure, put them in there because I'd like to see who gets it right, who gets it wrong, because at the end of the day, really it comes down to this dollars and cents. Who here gives us the best info that we possibly can and then we can move from there. We'll see. Anyhow, uh let me know what you think about that everybody. And then just to before we get in the Q&A, just real quick, I wanted to uh go over right now as it as it compares to gold and this ETF. Stick with me in this one. Stick with me. Stick with me. This is Ted Pillows. He reminds us that the midterm years, these are when they are at two, 2002, 2006, 2010, 14, 18, 22, and now 26. We're in the midterm year.
The whole thesis is midterms. This is when usually we don't have a great return on investment S&P 500 as well as the crypto market. And what I want to show you though is this affects everything. You know, this stable store of value known as gold.
And I own gold. I have no problems with the gold bugs. I don't know why Peter Schiff hates us, but whatever. Well, he just says that there's no there's no intrinsic value. I get it. I get it. I get it. But what I want to show you is that the spot market or the spot ETF for gold was started in November 2004.
When was it? I got to see it again. Hold on real quick. Whole thesis goes out the window.
>> Gold ETF start date.
>> Yeah. 203 >> 203 March 20th, 2003 and then launched on the New York Stock Exchange November 18, 2004.
Okay, good enough. Just want to make sure. So, if we can take a look here, 2003, 2004. What I want to show you is that, you know, the price of gold because we just had an ETF for Bitcoin in January 2024, and we did pretty good.
But even as well as we did, and you can see here with gold how it went up. You know, we went from 426 and ' 04 in the midterm years in ' 06.
You can see how the price did really well again store of value, hedge against inflation, so on and so forth, but can only do so much in these markets as it starts to take a pullback. So in 11th of May, look at that. $7 or $19 and then of course little drop more of a drop and then in October 2006 midterm year it went from five it went to 566 it had a marvelous run but there's always these pullbacks and the reason why I talk about this is just to bring people into a little bit of a enlightenment because I know people say like especially if you're new like well this is it this is it's all going to go downhill not so much we take a look here if If we zoom out, which is what we should be doing going back to 2004, we actually had a nice run even though we had this big huge pullback and people were afraid all the way to 20101.
So let me do some quick math. 4 11 10 Jerry 7 years, right?
>> Okay.
>> Okay. So we had seven years except for this little big pullback and the great recession of just going bonkers. Look at that. the price was 2,000. So, unfortunately, after this, we can see gold how it didn't really hit back to its almost 1,900 for like almost a decade.
That's a long time. So, I know people will say, well, if Bitcoin's a store of value, then why is it going down so much? Hey, gold which is the ultimate store of value as part according to the the gold bugs did the same thing for roughly a decade as far as like a price down for now if you had bought at the absolute tippy top this these things happen as I think we've all gone through it but as we take a look at Bitcoin 2024 January look at this nice run and then we have like a little pullback as we say again if we zoom out we can see it it's the same thing looking at Wh zooming out and zooming out again. So I just want to bring that to everybody's attention as we think of well you know how does Bitcoin compared to gold and is this store of value narrative? Should we just be going into it? I have no problems doing both. I have actually have a gold in my Roth IRA. But just as a quick reminder these things happen. Jerry, that was a lot to to me to ramble through. Any thoughts on this one before we get into like a Q&A? I think I here's the thing. There's this underlying current and it's kind of the foundation in which everything that you just discussed is built upon and that is the value of the dollar. Right? So when you make an investment in a stock or a commodity, it doesn't matter if it's an Nvidia share or an ounce of gold, you're doing it in a currency that the value of the currency is fluctuating.
The currency denomination never changes.
A dollar is a dollar. A dollar was a dollar in 1920. A dollar is a dollar today. It's what that dollar can do, right? It's purchasing power, so to speak. And so once you start to get a kind of a sense of how people are allocating that dollar, whether it be in a 12% return asset like the S&P versus a 3 or 4% like gold, okay, you start getting some field of reference, but as the denomin the the value of that currency starts to diminish and more noticeably over the last 10 years more people have become hip to understanding that dynamic. You are seeing why gold had broken that 10year we'll call it stagnation period. It's because the kind of the world woke up and went whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa wait a second >> wait a second >> scarcity scarcity does matter right the the number of something in a system >> when it's related to value does in it by itself have a value so hence bitcoin hence gold uh gold getting that rally that was welld deserved and probably should have been much earlier than it actually happened based off of the fundamentals of purchasing power versus the the dollar. So, I'm just kind of giving a little undertone context to the rambling that you just had and I hope that it makes sense.
>> Makes sense. Makes sense to me. I think it during that time frame, I can't remember when this actually was, but wasn't JP Morgan indicted for precious metal spoofing in the markets?
>> A lot of silver. Matter of fact, actual judgments were were levied and they paid actual real punitive well, not punitive.
Uh they they paid settlements that were dictated by courts.
>> I got to tell you, that's not a bad and and I'm I'm just going to guess it was probably way less than their profits that they made. So that's just called the cost of doing business. Oh yeah.
Good for them. Good for them. All right.
To finish up, here's some also just a little bit of good news as we move into the Q&A session. Coin Bureau had a nice little post. Project 11 built a zero knowledge proof that lets wallet owners recover quantum vulnerable coins in 240 milliseconds on a laptop. It only works for wallets created after 2012.
So that does not exempt the Satoshi wallets which were pre20. But it looks like as I can take a look at this, this is from project11.com.
Futurep proof security leaders in postquantum cryptography for digital assets. I'm guessing from what I am reading here is that this is quantum resistance for Bitcoin. That'd be pretty big. Jerry, thoughts on this one?
I will never forget and and I'm I'm sorry I forget the gentleman's name, but he was an executive with Ripple and it was a relatively well publicized thing that he had on a wallet a security mechanism that if you got the password wrong x amount of times, >> yeah, >> wallet locked forever, you'll never get in there again. and he had somewhere in the tune of a relatively large amount of Bitcoin that he had gotten in that 2010 112 period when he was able to hit faucets and mine it from his his home computer. Right.
>> Right.
>> The tool you just mentioned sounds like it will give him the opportunity to go recover his Bitcoin.
How many people lost Bitcoin on a disc or a drive that's in a landfill somewhere?
>> Yeah, >> I'm wondering I'm wondering how much Bitcoin will actually get recovered.
That would be a kind of an interesting thing. I'm sure somebody will develop some online some onchain tool to to do the forensic on that. But uh I think that's kind of cool. If I lost Bitcoin in the past, I would love something like that.
Exactly. This is why I think there's such a race for quantum computing also because of domination. It's AI quantum computing. Whoever makes those those two first superpower. So we'll see if we can actually get into there. And then lastly, lastly before we uh get into it, this is uh been quite a interesting discussion about BIP 110 and Michael Sailor put out 110 reasons BIP 110 is a bad idea. I happen to disagree with this this argument. I think the problem with BIP 110 is all the the spam and the large bloated blocks. I think Bitcoin is should be as it was made in the white paper peer-to-peer transactions. If you want to do some other stuff like ordinals and other smart contracts, there's another layer you can do the second, you know, layer two, layer three. I don't care what you do. Just make it a base layer. Let Bitcoin use what it is because the more that we bloat it, the bigger it actually it becomes. Then also we have to pay more fees and people don't want to keep doing that unless we just throw hands in the air and go forget it. It's not going to be store it's not going to be a peerto-peer. It's just going to be whatever this is a store of value. So I don't know Jerry, have you been following this one?
>> You know what? I haven't.
>> Yeah, >> I haven't. This this has gone under my radar. Um is there an easy place to go get a dissertation or should I just uh consult Grock? consult Grock for sure.
>> You can do that. We can do uh >> you can take a listen to this gentleman here >> Bitcoin University. He's always got good stuff. Uh so if you want a a different view, I linked Michael Sailor's response in the description of this video. You can also search out Bitcoin University and Matthew Crowder's been really on this one. But that's it for today. So, look, if you like today's video, give it a thumbs up. Consider subscribing, timesensitive, all that good stuff. Now, let's get into uh some Q&A and we will go from there. So, let's see.
Ah, Leisure wants to tell us that this is what he's investing into. Jerry, you got any of this? Tesla.
>> Tesla 100%. Bitcoin 100%.
Obviously, I own some Saul Solano, >> MU, Marvel, >> the other ones I don't. And and I'll be and I'll just quickly end with the reason why I didn't put any money into SpaceX is I am operating under the premise that every share I buy of Tesla will become part of SpaceX when SpaceX buys Tesla.
So therefore there's no need.
>> Yeah. Well, you know, if you had bought SpaceX when it was 180 190, you would been pretty hurting right now. I don't know what it I think it went below its preipo it preo price at 150. I know that for a fact. I think it actually fell below 130. I can't remember if that's what it was but it's dropping. Uh I think it's going to be a great company.
It's just that right now remember you have un unlocks on August. I think it's the first or second week. So why wouldn't people dump on you? So that's it. They want to take some profits.
Nothing wrong with that. Uh, Captain Kurt, Captain Kurt, I think the powers of be are squeezing Iran because they use Bitcoin and also to stay afloat and that's hurting the market more than it should. Also, I remember, wasn't Iran getting away with like mining Bitcoin at a massively discounted price because electricity was subsidized and they were just selling it off?
>> Yes.
>> You would think if well that was the case, they were selling off that sell pressure, you know, you would think that this is actually pretty good. But Bitcoin has been Where are we at today, Jerry? 63 64 >> something like that. And the thing that we have to remember is that the predictable new flow of Bitcoin. In other words, the Bitcoin that's being mined very predictable, right? And we know each block is going to produce X and there's X amount of blocks per day. That means boom. So Iran's whether they sell it or not doesn't matter. it it >> it's not having an effect on the price is what I'm trying to say.
>> Gotcha. Gotcha.
Uh let's see.
>> Can I pop up one?
>> Jade, >> there was a a question to me specifically from Jade about going to Miami >> uh in November. I will I have no plans to do so. Um, but Jade, if you wanted to sponsor me, I'd go on your behalf.
>> There you go, Jerry. Alls you need is that that little QR code that just says, "Hey, you know, come on and just scan this right here. Give me some Bitcoin.
Give me one Bitcoin. I'll send you two back." That's what I always do.
Yeah. Iran for free.
Uh, Bison says, "Didn't the US seize wallets?" That's where all its Bitcoin reserve comes from. seized wallets and uh for all the illegal transactions and spam and scamming that was going on. They just uh seized those wallets and they were supposed to not sell it. Uh we'll see if it's going to keep happening. I don't know. Bitcoin 64,000. That's a pretty good.
And I think that's it. Unlocks incoming.
Very true. I'll be on a cruise.
>> Good for you. Enjoy the quality of your life.
>> Yeah, just don't eat any lettuce.
Let's see. I think most of the US Bitcoin is from Silk Road, probably. So, and I think that should do it for today.
So, everybody, that was a nice quick quick one. 26 minutes. Let's get out of here on a Sunday. That's it for today.
So, again, if you want to put in there, do a price prediction, the website's there for you. And again, you don't have to put your name. Just give me a price prediction. We'll see where it goes through. I want to see what the wisdom of the crowd can actually do and where we're actually going to go. And again, you can do that for end of year for 2026. You can do it for next year. You can do it for end of cycle. Depends on what you want to do. It's Bitcoin and Bitcoin only. And u look looking forward to see what you guys put on there. And that's it for today. Jerry, I'll see you next week everybody. Thank you. And that is it for today. Adios. carried a
