Despite his surreal methods, predictions from the Chicago-turned-Bitcoin-Bull come surprisingly close to the target.
While the broader market sentiment has got many crypto aficionados shouting “it’s so over” all over Crypto Twitter, some very famous Bitcoin (BTC) enthusiasts are feeling completely opposite.
Scottie Pippen, the 6-times NBA Champion with the Chicago Bulls back in the 90s, has chimed in to offer his X audience a take on Bitcoin’s (BTC) upcoming price trajectory amid the flagship asset’s massive downturn.
Scottie’s Satoshi Dream Spills $180K BTC Price Prediction
This time, as BTC’s price just rebounded past $106K, the retired NBA superstar drew the line at $180K, banking on the digital gold’s price to mimic the late rally. Back then, Scottie Pippen posted multiple tweets describing his Satoshi Nakamoto dream.
Posting the first message of that kind in June, 2024, Scottie Pippen carried on to lucid dreaming with Bitcoin’s (BTC) mystified founder. In September, he posted: “Satoshi Nakamoto visited me and predicted that Bitcoin would be at $84,650 on November 5, 2024.”
Even though BTC’s price dwelled at $67K at that date, the king crypto surged to $88K a week later, making this price prediction extremely close to reality.
As Bitcoin’s price rebounds from $99K to $106K on Monday evening, Scottie Pippen’s prediction aligns with the historical price data. Over the past decade, Bitcoin (BTC) has registered roughly 36% of gains during November.
Market Thunderstorm Calms Down, But Fear Still Prevalent
While Scottie Pippen’s reasoning might sound erratic, the NBA star player was also very close to calling the bottom last week, pleading to believe Bitcoin is on the right path to $140K despite geopolitical havoc. That’s just $13K above the current all-time peak of $126,080 scored on October 6, 2025.
In hopes of a “biblical reversal”, Scottie Pippen’s audience is counting on the $100K support level being the bottom. So far, BTC’s rebound by 6% to $106K proves the theory right, but the market is still in fear.
Going from last week’s extreme levels of fear, the Crypto Fear & Greed Index now flashes 29, slowly nearing neutral area. On Perp markets, short-sellers also started losing territory to bulls, wiping out $70 million in short liquidations as opposed to $31 million in longs.
