Satoshi Told Legendary NBA Star Pippen That Bitcoin Is Headed For $84,000 In Bizarre Dream
Scottie Pippen, a 6-time NBA champion, has stirred a flurry of reactions among crypto community members after revealing a vivid dream he had. Pippen said in an X post that Satoshi Nakamoto, the enigmatic Bitcoin creator, told him in his dream that Bitcoin was going to hit a new all-time high by early November.
The bizarre post came as the price of Bitcoin nosedived below the $56,000 mark following a dismal day for U.S. stocks.
The Dream With Satoshi
Scottie Pippen took to the X platform on Sept. 4 to share that Satoshi Nakamoto had shown up in his dream to predict that the apex crypto would reach $84,650 on November 5th.
Pippens assertion was particularly interesting as it coincided with Bitcoin dropping to $55,746, its lowest level since Aug. 8, erasing all the gains from last month. BTC subsequently recouped some losses, changing hands at around $58,101 as of press time.
The NBA legends prediction mainly attracted mockery from X users. Ok then, weird grifter guy running Scottie Pippens account, said Dogecoin co-founder Billy Markus, popularly known as Shibetoshi Nakamoto on Twitter.
For Bitcoin to hit Pippens $84,650 dream target price, it must climb by over 45% within the next two months. However, the consensus among crypto pundits is that BTCs frustrating price movement will likely continue for the rest of 2024 despite the incoming financial policy easing by the U.S. Federal Reserve.
Pippens Journey Into Crypto
Scottie Pippen forayed into the crypto space in 2022 by debuting his own non-fungible token (NFT) collection.
In June, the former professional basketball player sought advice from his followers on whether to invest in Ether (ETH) or Solanas SOL, further indicating his growing interest in cryptocurrencies.
Moreover, there was speculation about Pippen launching his meme-based cryptocurrency. He, however, ultimately revealed the tokenization of the iconic 1991 NBA championship ball on the blockchain, which sparked a fierce backlash from crypto fans.
Suffice it to say that Pippens X post from earlier today appears to be another failed attempt to increase his presence in the cryptoverse.
