John McAfee, the founder of the software company, McAfee Associates, stipulated the exact day, a day he calls the ‘hard date,’ when he believes that Bitcoin will achieve the $1,000,000 feat. This was in response to Jesse Lund’s recent statement on the future of Bitcoin.
John McAfee’s present prediction comes a few years after made a similar prediction for the same cryptocurrency a few years ago. Back in July 2017, McAfee predicted that the price of the cryptocurrency would reach $500,000 in three years. The present prediction suggests that McAfee believes BTC to grow in value at two times the speed as it did back in 2017.
Further, McAfee also exuded confidence in his price prediction, promising to do anything requested of him on Twitter.
This isn’t the first time John McAfee is in the news this year. Since declaring his candidacy for the US Presidency, McAfee has been in the news for his controversial statements and escapades.
