It's true. He posted to his followers on Telegram a few days ago that he was going to buy 50 BTC to buy the dip. Today he acquired them.

What do you guys think about this? Obviously don't just stand there and talk about it - hopefully you are buying some too.

From what I'm aware of he's a trader and as long as he didn't go leverage
Then there's nothing he should be scared about.
The last time I saw his post was some weeks ago when he stated Bitcoin going to $27K
But I think something made him change his mind.
We still have a possibility in creating another ATH this year.

Fingers crossed.

When the world seems to have forgotten about Tate, he do something to crave for attention, he may have bought that amount of Bitcoin but he is a liar and deciet that follows anything for money and attention.

Don't take influencers too serious.

I heard this news, but it seems the source I read seems fake because it's said that Andrew will buy 150 BTC at a dip price.
The weird part is he said last October that BTC will drop to $26k (source below).

That's why I don't trust big influencers and news or anything they say.
I don't think there's a huge impact of telling people that you are going to buy 50 BTC. It won't cover how huge the outflow from the past few weeks was.

Bald Guy, Top G shit and Matrix, once he was all over my feed and some of his statements made sense too but he is just another one trying to monetize his fame so he does anything to make money so no need to fall for his choices, we should make our own even if it's about bitcoin, don't let anyone to influence you which shows that you are weak and incapable person. :)

From a guy who once shilled shitcoins to his followers, that would later dump or rug pull like crazy, I won't be surprised if he used those profits to now buy Bitcoins. Ain't no way that is top G shit  ;D Just another shark in the sea that took advantage of some of his gullible following and cashed out.

Sometimes big social influencers say things that are so irrelevant that it's hard to believe. If such popular celebrities like them say such irrelevant things about Bitcoin, how can we, who are Bitcoin fanatics, give importance to their words?
Andrew Tate, why did he buy 50 Bitcoins? He could have waited until Bitcoin reached $26,000. He didn't have time for 50 Bitcoins, so why did he buy Bitcoin when the market was above $100,000?

Top G? Meh. Who cares what this guy does? He's not even the top figure/celebrity/influencer/bald-guy (yes, I know another popular bald-guy too  ;) ) that comes to mind when talking about Bitcoin.
If it were Saylor, Gates, Musk, or Bezos, any of these guys would surely cause a wave, but him, more like a drop in an ocean.
He's just doing what these "influencers" have always been trying to do: use their fame to earn more fortune, all while trying to stay relevant.

If he bought, then that's good. That's good for the market. That's good for him. But I don't see any reason why this man is relevant. If he walks the talk, that's expected from everybody. It's not special. He didn't do anything special. It's not like he sold half of his properties to buy Bitcoin.

Hell, we don't even know if it's true. But it seems he's a fan, so it won't be surprising for him to buy the dip. But there's nothing special, no big deal whatsoever. It's not even a huge amount for him. He said he has lots and lots of money, losing millions and millions in casino. 

He kinda trade a lot in hyperliquid even everybody knows his wallet and long many coins. Wouldn't be surprised if he bought the dip but honestly as long as there's no proof I'm doubtful.

Regardless if he bought the dip then good for him, long term holding is the way.

I think Andrew Tate is really expecting this recent dip, as when Bitcoin was around $120,000+ level, he kept shorting it. So now he really bought the dip.

I'm curious how people knew this. Is there any public address of Andrew Tate available? I'm more convinced if all the proof is on-chain.

I don't know about him till today. Who is Andrew Tate?

He can be like other Bitcoin investors, bought bitcoins and wanted to become famous, but I am skeptical about his action and motivations from his post. The answer from Cookdata cleans this doubt for me.

If Andrew Tate only invested his money in Bitcoin, I perhaps have good impression about him but it does not mean I trust him. Unfortunately, his past actions archived in his posts on X, show that he interacted with shit meme tokens too. So with these proofs of his past actions in cryptocurrency market, I have zero reasons to trust any opinion from Andrew Tate.

Congratulations on his 50 bitcoin recently purchased, but I've wanted to ask concerning how individuals especially the whalers speculates that they buys specific amount of bitcoins, is it really true? Do they also discloses their wallet addresses to the public? I used to be skeptic when some of these whalers rumours about their bitcoin portfolios.

Giving benefit of doubts that he did actually bought the bitcoin, I'm definitely getting convinced that more institutions and whalers will also be in alignment to buy too and with a strong buying power, bitcoin price could recover and the bearish speculations in the current time may turn out bullish again. Hopefully even we the ordinary investors who're skeptic to buy the Dip may also want to buy.

Tate has many accusations related to assaulting and trafficking women, not to mention all the rug pulls he’s been involved with. I guess this highlights how permissionless Bitcoin is if even horrible people can’t be prevented from using it.

We don’t have any actual proof he kept his word. Some Twitter accounts made the claim based on the target price he said he would buy at being reached. That is called engagement farming. Without evidence, it is just noise.

It's just a cry for attention in my opinion. Some of the things he says are ok with me but I don't care what he buys with his money. I know him to be a shitcoins shill as well, so that tells me that he will do and say whatever he needs to fill his pockets. If it's true that he bought, good for him. If not, then it doesn't change my perspective and opinion of Bitcoin whatsoever.

That we should stop making criminals famous.

The guy is a misogynistic piss of shit wanted everywhere for human trafficking, he is involved in everything shady and has bribed Romanian authorities probably millions to keep the lid on everything he has done in that country. Seriously, we're making a hero out of a guy who has bought Bitcoin with the money he has made by enslaving girls and having them earn money 12 hours a day in front of a webcam?


Have a read:
https://www.theguardian.com/news/2025/may/28/influencers-andrew-tate-tristan-to-face-charges-in-uk-cps-confirms

I don't really care either way. And I wouldn't care either way if, instead of buying, I had sold 50.


I feel exactly the same way. I have a clear understanding of Bitcoin and a long-term plan that won't change based on what a famous person buys or doesn't buy.

Some are buying while some are discussing it, you can even get the worst of them all, those that attack against bitcoin, we have to identify where we belong to, investing into bitcoin comes with the best strategy which we can use to secure our financial future, because we can come in at any time we finds it more suitable for an entry just as Andrew Tate did, so we can have something to be proud of in the future, it's never too late, now or never.

They got amazed on the 50 BTC accumulation done by that guy, but forget about his past harmful actions done to several or maybe lots of people.

So better not to get surprised on what he did since for sure that he's not for long term on Bitcoin and eventually would dump that once he see a opportunity to sell what he bought.

So I really agree that we should top taking those action he done as a big deal since for sure that this is just part of the hype he usually created same with those shitcoins he promoted before.

Really? Making the wallet public is not smart at all. Why would anybody want to trade with a public wallet on Hyperliquid or anywhere else? That's just an arena for phishers and kidnappers.

He's a weird piece of shit. Nothing he does inspires me. He's also a lying piece of shit who created about two meme tokens so he can exploit his followers. Also, wasn't he the one a few months ago who said bitcoin was going to crash to $26k? I don't care if he buys a million bitcoin, I cant see him as a source of inspiration. I still won't be surprised if this is just another of his stunts.

Apparently people in this world appreciate crazy criminals and need someone they see as their idol, no matter how bad they are. The crazier you are today, the more followers you have on social media, and the bigger the criminal you are, the more you advance. Besides, 50 BTC is not even worth mentioning, it means less than a drop of water in the ocean.

Obviously after taking advantage of the bitcoins created to chase foo, he bought bitcoins for a more certain investment than keeping his own coins, doesn't that sound shortsighted.

The influencer is seeking attention knowing that he is no longer in the conversation, buying BTC is one of the tricks to elevate him and people talk about him again, influencers are always looking for self attention because it is an advantage for him to seek money and money again and again.

Meaning that person really can't be trusted then, and I also believe that I don't believe in influencers who say in their content that Bitcoin is bad, just like that one.
Right there, they've already been fact-checked by time itself and now they're still far from what they said.

I just feel bad for their followers who believe in them. I don't know that person but it's enough to know and see that they were apparently lying in the statements they made in the last month of October. That's why only a few influencers really tell the truth about Bitcoin.

I don't even know about his back story, first time algorithm brought him to my timeline was when he was arrested for sex trafficking things. I didn't follow up not until sometimes later, he goes to podcast, shame women for been feminism and all that. Still didn't read all listening not until lookontochain and bubble called him out for dumping the coins he promoted on his channel. It was two if I could remember but this daddy one made him more money and man never spoke about it again, truely worst than what he teaches his followers.

Now he is trying to use Bitcoin to get fame, there are individuals that aren't even loud like him, they had bought more than that amount and we never heard anything from them. I don't just know, I don't like influencers both the good and bad ones, they are vulnerable and can mislead by anything. There are some other Bitcoin influencers I was following back then, it's so sad they loss their community over meme coins and scam coins, nothing they say makes sense to their followers anymore. I still remember Bitboy ;D, used to be pro Bitcoin but lost everything to FTX but hay suit him right, he promoted a lot of scam coins that never breath again.

Haven’t heard his name in a while. Last time I heard of him was about his cases. Seems like he wasn’t found guilty of abuse claims https://www.theguardian.com/news/2025/sep/29/andrew-tate-to-face-no-criminal-charges-over-abuse-claims-made-in-uk-civil-case (https://www.theguardian.com/news/2025/sep/29/andrew-tate-to-face-no-criminal-charges-over-abuse-claims-made-in-uk-civil-case) but I am not sure about his human trafficking case. I also do not follow if he still posts.
Not a requirement to buy 50 btc during this dip but it would be nice to have some funds to do so. He’s just gonna get richer and richer even amidst lawsuits after lawsuits.

They should post the transaction id to Andrew Tate buying 50 BTC or $5,000,000 worth of BTC. Buying bitcoin is better for Andrew Tate than him having Fiat.
Andrew Tate is smart buying bitcoin when the market has dropped, top G things from the top G leader himself, with don’t actually know but many that can afford it should have been buying more bitcoin.

'and everybody know his wallet' no I don't. And if you know it then you could verify the 50 btc, right?

He's just a market manipulator. I would even rather think that he dumped 50 btc on his stupid followers to be exit liquidity lol

If you do listen to the Andre Tate podcast, you will just fall in love with the things he says all the time.
Andre Tate happens to be someone who likes saying Bitcoin is the future wealth. If he means what he said that he bought 50BTC, that's good for him, not for us to feel different about him because everyone is buying Bitcoin in little or big ways they can. They are good with that without making it public

By trader you human trafficker?  :P

The guy is a clown, so I wouldn't believe any thing he says. He does have financial capablities to buy that amount of bitcoin though, and I would be very surprised if he didn't have a decent amount already, stashed somewhere, in case he needs to run to some exotic country.

Are we sure he really bought it, although he have money but the type of money he has I don't know I saw some of his videos buying cars, watches, rooms, girls, now 50 bitcoins I wonder how much he worth and where all the money coming from, but I don't have anything to do with it, I heard about about the person.

He was in jail and that made him so famous maybe it was a stunt but it turned out to be good for him and now he is roaring anyways, it is really a good news but he will surely sell it, but that also does not matter, we must be buying too, he bought the dip and he was ready for it, like he knew it was going to happen.

I think that he's one of the fake rich but has to be showy in the social media to feed his followers with the clout that he wants.

Whether he's bought 50 BTC or not, I'd definitely describe anyone as a top G if he's got that for real just for owning it. But for the other things he's doing, he's not a top g.  :P

But people should just stop chasing all of these big purchases from these celebrities. They're maximizing each of their activity to be a talk in the town which we shouldn't.

Andrew is a very unserious influencer and he had promoted some shits coins in the past to his community advising people to buy and hold. The coin actually pumped but he rug is community because he did not informed them of selling before the price later crashed.
Investing in Bitcoin should not be publicized the way we are seeing so many influencers doing even without a proof.
Is there any way he can prove that he bought 50 Bitcoin? Anyone can claim this online.

He's most likely just doing it to get attention, since he's an influencer, and he wants to get back the attention he had before. I bet he'll be the first to sell his bitcoins when they drop by a few percent, you could say he's a typical weak hand, and not worth talking about.

I totally agree with both opinions shared by most users in this thread. The first one is that he's trying to gain attention from the public by doing this and then announcing it publicly, because if he were doing that only to get profits or because he was generally interested in Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies, then he wouldn't need to do all this only to get the public's attention. The second thing is that there is no proof that he actually did it, even if he announced that he did it, he could be lying unless he has shared something that proves that he's telling the truth.

He might have a high fan following, but he's not that influential, and the fact that the market didn't react much about this news is proof that his actions don't make much of an impact, so it's nothing special but just a news about another influencer showing interest towards Bitcoin, which might have a positive impact on some of his followers, which is good.

I think that this is a very good investment choice right now. While it was better to buy Bitcoin when the price was much lower, like $30K or $50K, before the ETFs would get approved but since this time has passed, it's pointless to cry over old prices, so from modern reality, buying Bitcoin at roughly $100K is a very good idea, it can easily bring back 20% profit on investment within few weeks according to my prediction. I'm sure that the market won't crash because we have steadily been above $100K but I also hope that Trump won't ruin the party for all of us.

Btw Tate's popularity has significantly dropped, hasn't it? I haven't heard about him in the last couple of years. I'm sure his decision won't do anything to manipulate the price.

I really don’t know how some people enthusiasm is way above others, this is coming at a time that many are already predicting a bear cycle already. These type of people are probably long term holders that can hold on to their bitcoin from now till another bull run or till their target is reached. We have different ways we view the market and we’re more informed than one another, so to him, he may have done the right thing of course and I really feel attracted to his ways, this is what we call “talk and do”. 50BTC is a large sum of money, so he really knows what he’s doing and getting at to profit from the investment.

With all the negativity going on in the markets because of external factors like the politics from Trump, we need a break and such influencers like Tate could help with the change of mindset.. the narrative of riding the wave needs to stop and turn thins around.

The Tate magic, sprinkle some of that bullishness on the markets  :D

He gives himself a reason to be in the news so that his audience will react and discuss what he is doing. People start to spread this information, which is how this topic appeared on our forum. But if this person is really so terrible in his actions, then we should not quote any of his messages at all. He should be forgotten, not constantly remembered, then he will not be able to earn money if everyone forgets about him. And buying bots as subscribers won't help his business. In general, we should just ignore him and not use the information he tries to promote on his social media.

The bald man… lol ;D
I used to follow the guy before he started shilling memecoins,had enough of his garbage last year so I unfollowed him.
One thing about him though, he does warn his followers about being greedy but he’s still a piece of shit.
He’s a fan of Bitcoin, just that he goes all in talking about altcoins and memecoins at large for attention and influence. He didn’t need to announce it but he did it for more attention… maybe..maybe he’s planning another rug..

Like I expected.....

I knew it ;D

He has went quiet for 2days, he need an attention and that's it. He makes everything about him. TOP G(Gaudy)

Andrew Tate as a crypto influencer who is always used as a shitcoin reference by his followers on x, that's what I see from him and a lot of shitcoin history he tweets. But fortunately I'm not too enthusiastic, because after all Andrew is an influncer who trapped many of his followers into the shitcoin abyss.
Buying Bitcoin that he did was a good way to lure before leading back to shitcoin.

We can have him as a mix of both promotion (Altcoin and Bitcoin)

I'm not up to date with his current media post, as at the time when i often come across his videos/posts, he speaks brilliance even when not related to Crypto or Bitcoin that is finance related which i approve.

Better off seeing people accept Bitcoin without criticizing, whether they side ways promote altcoins, followers are entitled to decide what they want and making proper research.

I didn't know that news. All the news I heard about him was positive and related to business and entrepreneurship, not negative like this one.
Human trafficking, rape, and other crimes—including his brother. Prosecutors had authorized 21 charges to both of them.
That's a bad influencer to be followed. I idolized him due to the motivational speech before, but right now he is a criminal, including his brother; they use their power for these things.

I don't like nor trust these degenerate gamblers. Everything has to be loud and in your face with these guys. It's always fake though. Like he's making a video where he's buying something and the next day he's forced to sell it to pay for something else. Today he will show you he bought 50BTC, tomorrow he'll dump it all because his Bugatti needs new tires, or there's a video of him flying a helicopter to be made. None of the things he's doing should be trusted.

Those loud crickets are always the worst. To hell with their motivational videos or speeches because most of what they say, they never actual practiced it. All they thrive on is mostly crime and fraud.
Remember John McFee? The guy most of us liked back in the day, only for him to start advertising fake ICOs and tokens?

This goes to show Tate as not just being a societal figure but, a real business mogul which many see him to be. Having to acquire 50 BTC at this time when Bitcoin dumped only after hitting an ATH a couple of weeks ago was really clever.

Tate is a media personality and the fact that, he didn’t just broadcast it to his followers on Telegram but, took the information to other social media space and lead by example is a good one. Not just for Tate but, those who follow him.

If there are those that are waiting on Bitcoin to further dip might as well miss a good chance to buy in at a low.

I don't believe in this until Tate posts verified data about the transaction on the blockchain.
Why is Andrew Tate not in prison? Did he use his "pimp money" to buy BTC(if he ever bought any BTC to begin with)?
Why should we even care about Andrew Tate buying BTC or shitcoins? He can do whatever he wants with his money(assuming that those money were acquired with legal activities). Selling shitty online courses and memberships is legal(despite being really sketchy).
Why didn't he bought BTC 5 years ago or 10 years ago? I can guess that he is one of the late Bitcoin believers. ;D

Seen this video when it was released by him last month and was saying this guy doesn't believe in bitcoin or it's fundamentals one bit.
He is only interested in making money from it and if it dips below $26k he will just laugh and buy more.
Somebody mentioned about the daddy coin he created so he is using cryptocurrency for his own benefit in pump his newly created altcoin and scam all his investors.
That is just the sort of individual he truly is from this influencer background many have witnessed in the past.

Does he need to tell everyone that he bought Bitcoin? He once nursed the idea of launching his own crypto token, which he claimed would be backed by $100 million of his personal income. He later shelved the idea when he received some backlash. Most of these influencers used Bitcoin as a smokescreen to promote their ulterior motive. He is facing allegations of being a human trafficker, he's not a good figure to promote Bitcoin.

The best time to buy Bitcoin is when you can afford it. The coin might not drop to the price you want. I agree with you.

I am curious why we care what he says?  Maybe there is a reason, but I don't know it.

So what should we do after reading this news? Rejoice that someone bought a pack of bitcoins and now everyone else should immediately start buying it too? No one cares, because everyone has their own wallet. Anyone who intended to buy bitcoin will do so regardless of such news. And anyone who only talks about their intention to buy bitcoin will continue in the same vein.

This news doesn't affect anything (well, okay, Andrew Tate did give bitcoin a little publicity among his fans), other than providing another opportunity to gossip and speculate.

I'm interested in the "technical" part of this transaction: how was such a significant purchase made? Did Tate simply show up with a "suitcase of money" to some exchange and exchange it for bitcoin? :) Or did he buy it from an early BTC-miner (remember when the reward for each mined block was exactly 50BTC?)?

In 2024, Andrew Tate videos were sure to pop up on my feed whether you liked his videos or not. Never quite understood how he did that. He has since grown into a successful influencer and salesman. Last I heard from Tate, he was selling an online course on how to get rich off the internet. Whether the Tate brothers buy bitcoin or not, it doesn’t change anything.

I'm honestly more interested in what the lady in the shop who sells bread thinks about something than what this swindler thinks about anything. But it's obviously important to some, otherwise topics like this wouldn't exist, right?

If you have not learned the most important lesson in Cryptocurrencies yet then it may be time to do it now.  Online personalities lie a LOT, fake their lives a LOT and will test your brains out to see if they can manipulate things the way they want to.

Considering the video he posted short before he purchased 50 Bitcoin, in my opinion he tested his audience out to see if he can replicate what Musk and Trump have done.  Because no thing is better than being able to crash the Market for a little bit right before purchasing some Bitcoin for your self.  And considering his past behavior, if he was able to crash it before hand then he would have most probably followed up with a video laughing at 'weak idiots'.

Another millionaire is purchasing Bitcoin.  Good.  Now move on with your life, there are better things to be enthusiastic about.

Andrew Tate is nothing more than a modern con artist and charlatan who uses the fame he has gained over the past few years to sell his followers a fantasy. This man has repeatedly told people to buy shitcoins just to scam a few more suckers, and he continues to do so. I am certain that most of the news stories about him are fabricated and paid for by him.

People like this do more harm than good to Bitcoin and crypto. They scam and drive away people who are interested in these things.

Too bad a lot of followers don’t bother to do that(research), and that’s why we keep seeing people get scammed(aka rugged) from time to time..
Research is a myth for them… they just blindly follow whatever their influencer spills out .
Besides, what research :P most of them already know what they’re getting into and they understand the risk. Sometimes it’s just greed that takes them out..although, nmw there will always be victims.

What’s the problem in Tate having to announce he’s plans to buying Bitcoin, actually going ahead to buy and went public on it. It’s normal for these public figures and to be fair, Microstrategy does this all the time so, why can’t Tate?
Don’t forget, these are internet sensation individuals that have got several means to earn online, even the reactions he would generate from going public is huge plus for him so why shouldn’t he…

It doesn’t matter what he’s charged with, he only invested in Bitcoin and went public on it. You can’t have a take other than that.

Agreed. Motivational speeches and BS. He was prosecuted with multiple different charges, and we're not talking about minor allegations, human trafficking, rape, harm and several others. He was also promoting shitcoins to "help" his followers, but in reality, he was only profiting from it. His whole persona is a hypocrisy, and him purchasing Bitcoin, if he actually did, is a whole publicity stunt. I wouldn't be surprised if it was a lie or he sold it the very next day. He has disappeared from most social networks, and you barely even hear his name anymore.

If it's true, that's good for him. Buying bitcoin whether the price is on top or in its bottom will always be a good buy. However, just my serious thought about this, Tate is a big influencer so he could be doing things like this just to create hype, or just to make his name creates bigger impact by riding what is mostly talked about in the social media. But either way, if this is true, he will make massive profits in the future. But if this is a big lie, he could be missing the biggest opportunity then while bitcoin price is still not on  his new all time high.

Andrew Tate may be making a serious move with bitcoin, and that's great. He has a lot of funds anyway to pour it into bitcoin. But that does not require us to imitate the same move and buy bitcoin now. We all have our own goals and time set for bitcoin, when to buy and when to sell. Even myself, I'm still  not buying now but I have big plans anyway.

Still in the end, influencers like Andrew Tate is still here to attract us, and encourage us to buy now. The final decision is up to us.

If you (and some others) need a scumbag like this to convince you to buy Bitcoin, then it's better to forget that it even exists. People who understand what BTC is don't wait for anyone to give them advice, they have already invested long ago, while these people had no idea that Bitcoin even existed.

I’m glad that people like Andrew Tate are buying bitcoin. If this trend continues and more smart and popular people start buying it, that will lead to its growth, and it will eventually reach the price peaks that were predicted for this cycle. I’m still waiting for that and hoping that bitcoin will rise even higher and reach a new peak in this cycle.

This is huge, good one, one of the best investment right now is Bitcoin investment especially if you are holding for long term, I really don't know if his a long term Bitcoin investor or just a trader, some set of people usually take advantage in the dip by using huge amount of money to purchase Bitcoin and when there's a little increase in Bitcoin price they sell and make huge profit.
Which ever one he is investing in Bitcoin is one of the best decisions to make.
NotATether I won't stand and just talk about this I will quietly continue with my DCA strategy, and maybe if I have such huge amount of money as my discretionary income I will do same.
