I agree with the group here, but I do wonder how many new people will seek out BTC because they heard his prediction and only know of him and the antivirus guy! Now that said, I sure would not mind ... lol, still have a couple BTC I paid $50 for. That would be one hell of an ROI.
True, but at the same time we get a lot of negative press against bitcoin so in a way I think he is just balancing the books by doing this, he is creating interest in bitcoin, but at the same time I think he is just creating false expectations of what bitcoin may accomplish, maybe we will get to the point where bitcoin becomes very valuable but it is going to take a lot of time.
