He has such a poor record of predictions, I'm surprised that people still listen to him.

Definitely true.

How many times he gave his predictions in the past and how accurate they were? Here they are again when bitcoin starts to show its pattern to rise again.

Practically, many enthusiasts will still follow him and those who does are the greedy types. Personally, I was a follower of his but changed because his predictions lack accuracy unlike what we have seen with others. Many of his predictions are baseless predictions as I have seen per se.

Believe me, this is coming from him because of the current movement in Bitcoin and not that, he has a good Virgin prediction. Though one can see clearly that, the upcoming bitcoin halve will create another scene which will get many talking again as before. Happy predictions because of Bitcoin halving.....

If you will listen to his prediction then you are like CSW and ShitAcfee. Stupid idiots .

This analyst has predicted the price of Bitcoin so many times already but nobody happened, not even close to his prediction. Anybody can predict the price of Bitcoin. Even a kid who doesn't even know Bitcoin can predict the price. Many expert analysts too tried to predict the price in the past years but most of them are fail.

Maybe he is trying to make the price of Bitcoin increase?? Nahh he can't do it. He is a fail predictor .

But this time I think his prediction is quite reasonable, at least nearer to reality than those exaggerated "intelligent" guesses such as $100k Bitcoin on x year or $500k per bitcoin on the year 20xx.  Looking at the market pattern, I  think it is possible, the current price at a 200% increase would be around $27k or a little more than that.

Even though it's a crystal ball prediction like any other, I don't see why bitcoin couldn't reach that value. If the new bull run has started, let's expect some good ones.

Indeed, even though Bitcoin might miss that given time window, I still believe Bitcoin will in due time.  It won't hurt to wait for that to happen, right?

I wonder how many accurate predictions every analyst has about Bitcoin, out of their total number of predictions.

It's mostly a miss or hit, I've rarely seen the same name successfully predict price changes in a consecutive manner. Every time I followed an user I've seen good and successful predictions from, a miss followed.

Or maybe I'm that guy coming in with some bad luck.

People don't listen to Tom Lee anymore.The crypto news platforms,that are searching for clickbait "sensational" super-bullish price predictions are listening to him and posting every mindless prediction that he makes.This happens not because the prediction and analysis are right,but because it drives more traffic and clicks to their own crypto news blogs.What does it mean "due to events such as geopolitics"?This is some really bald statement.

A broken clock is right twice a day buddy
200% price increase by the end of 2020 wouldn’t be that unlikely as it’s the halving in May. I don’t think within 6 months is likely but by New Year, for sure.

200% price increase by the end of 2020 wouldn’t be that unlikely as it’s the halving in May. I don’t think within 6 months is likely but by New Year, for sure.

Not unlikely (hey, anything is possible in this space) but we've seen similar speculation when Litecoin was about to go through a block halving. It had a sweet pump prior to he halving, but then ended up tanking hard, also before the halving. It kept tanking after the halving while people were expecting even more pumping to happen.

Two different coins, but speculation-wise, the sentiment is quite similar. No doubt that Bitcoin will breach its prior highs eventually, but people shouldn't expect a massive bull run to take place just because of the block halving. Keep in mind that the price went up from low $3000's to now nearly $10,000.... My pre-halving pump target is $12,000 at most. 

[Lucius]

I see at least 3 threads about Tom Lee new speculation in the Speculation board, which only means that people do not use the search option on the forum before posting (which is somewhat understandable for newbies).

Lee is again trying to hit something in the dark, and he is again using "could" which means that it can, but does not have to happen. It won't be a miracle if the price goes up 200%, it can be a nice pre-halving pump, but I would not bet we can see a new ATH in the first half of this year.

It will be no wonder that this failed prophet is wrong again, with his largely missed speculation he became a subject of ridicule. To me personally, he seems like one very confused person who has trouble deciding which socks to wear in the morning...

Sounds like another random prediction made by a random guy. I don't think that any predictions there are there really matter. When a person makes one good prediction, this person becomes a guru, basically. And even when a guy makes terrible predictions, people still discuss them. There's no way of predicting where the price will go. None of them are scientific. We can say that it's more likely that Bitcoin will be $10k tomorrow than $100k, but not a lot more than that, and definitely nothing legit long-term.

[gundala]

I am not a typical person who is easily influenced by speculation like that, whether the person is influential or not, I just make it as a complement, not fully influenced. I prefer to do independent analysis, and expand the network with other traders, it's more effective I feel than just being carried away. Rumors, issues, speculation can have an effect on the market, but we must be selective and have our own analysis so it is not easily trapped. Even if our analysis is wrong, we can value it as a result of effort and risk rather than just blaming it on others if the prediction is wrong.

He had been speculating ever since and always bullish with BTC. Nothing wrong with it specially for Tom Lee at least he only does it with BTC not with an altcoin he shills. I didn't hear him promote any token unlike Mcaffee. Seeing these kind of prediction though will make new investors in crypto think that cryptocurrency are all for speculations.

Paid promoter, right? fortunately, he is talking about bitcoin  I am more uninterested when he also has an "interest" in cryptocurrency, so I think that what he conveys always has a specific purpose.

[pixie85]

If Tom is predicting this then it's going to happen, just like all his other predictions.

Statistically speaking your probability of getting a good short now have increased 10 times

Also, I don't get why he's always so overly optimistic. A normal trader would expect a 20% gain before the halving. Tom is always in the hundreds.
Bitcoin looks like it wants to correct after reaching 10 thousand not go 200% up to a new all time high.

[20kevin20]

Actually he was talking about 197% jump, which is even more pretentious. I bet even Satoshi himself wouldn't tell if it's really gonna happen, we should just stop taking these predictions seriously

I never knew Satoshi was Nostradamus.. How the hell did you manage to relate Satoshi to the ideal price prediction?

Speaking of Nostradamus, I am waiting for the next "Nostradamus predicted Bitcoin will spike to $10M!" spree of articles. Like come on, every time a new predictor comes up with a successful tip there's alwas that "After successfully predicting a $1 price increase of Bitcoin, ..." kind of paragraph at the beginning of an article to give him some credibility.

In 7 years of crypto I've seen enough to not believe in any prediction anymore. These guys just come and go like the wind. If Tom Lee's prediction doesn't go as planned, another price prediction will pop up from someone else.

[Tduty]

I saw another prediction from him that Bitcoin will reach 27K USD! So, 200% is the same prediction for me. I have seen many predictions from the first week of this year, but only Tom Lee's prediction seems the reality for me. Let's wait for the bull run and see what happens next!

[Searing]

I like Tom Lee! He is, however, IMHO, as nutty as a Loonie Toons Cartoon! At least on his overhyped and high as hell BTC price predictions that keep him on T.V.

This does not stop me, in my irrational expectations, that I really hope that he is indeed correct and being conservative in his pricing guesses as being too LOW!

But then again, I am biased, after drinking the BTC Kool-Aid in 2013! So it is possible to believe both of the above.

Again, Tom Lee's predictions are as nutty as the Professor in the FLUBBER movie, I don't expect him to be anywhere near right on price, but would be cool as hell if he was!

(damn, now I want BTC All-Time High and Flubber!)

[Baofeng]

Lol, Tom Lee again?  Here is my thread way back last year: Where's FOMO at? Tom Lee.

@Searing - Yeah, I like Tom Lee as well, however, we should understand where the guy is coming from. We could as well call him a "bitcoin shiller" because of his outlandish predictions second to John McAfee (although McAfee already made a U-turn).

[STT]

Awesome sauce but remember these bullish predictions are part of the near term, its the froth that appears when we gain.  Its going up non stop, all your worries are over, easy street etc.    Its way more complicated then that and its a pain that its never simple but I also love the waves that make up the patterns to bullish or bearish moves.
     Thats a long winded way of saying I think we are near to resistance and it can lose 20% from here and still be within a rise later in the year.

[criza]

Tom Lee's prediction about the value of Bitcoin could be true. Based from the present changes in the price of Bitcoin, the $9,600 barrier has been broke leading to a further increase in the price of Bitcoin. This have been a vital development in the increase of the value of Bitcoin. Within just a short time, the value of Bitcoin have been increasing rapidly that might prove the 200% increase in the coming months.
