He is definetely the brilliant clever guy  Cheesy Cheesy

Nah, he's not "definitely the brilliant clever guy"...you're just succumbing to the natural human tendency to find connections and relationships between things that don't really exist.

His prediction was just a guess. There's zero way he could have created a financial model to calculate the prediction. He literally, just got lucky. And if he'd made some other prediction no one would have even remembered that he was wrong as we approach the start of 2018.
So you think his investments into twitter, Tesla, bitcoin and skype was merely a guess ?  Huh   Grin

Just one investment into Skype brought him $400 mln when it was sold to Ebay.

Also it was his idea in 1996 to automatically attach advertising messages to the bottom of outgoing Hotmail emails.



Yep, and this guy was deemed insane to buy 40,000 BTC back then. We had nobel prizes claiming how "bitcoin was a bubble and was going to crash". And now here we are, as they say, time puts everyone on their on place, and bitcoin believers have been compensated with great wealth, haters have been punished for doubting it.

The good news is the fact that this has only begun. They are saying Mike Novogratz is too bullish with his $40,000 prediction for 2018, and just like Tim Drapper, he will come short (notice how Tim said 2018, and we crossed $10,000 before 2018). We will cross $40,000 next year and once again doubters will have a lesson on what exponential growth means.
