YoungHoon Kim Says He Went All-In on Bitcoin, Predicts 100× Rise Within a Decade

Analysts cast doubt on the 100× call, citing far smaller institutional forecasts.

Overview

  • Kim posted on X that he converted all his assets to bitcoin, calling it the only hope for the future economy, with bitcoin trading near $114,000 at the time.
  • He predicts the price will exceed $10 million per coin within about ten years and describes bitcoin as the eventual ultimate reserve asset.
  • Market reaction was limited, with bitcoin up roughly 3% over 24 hours after his posts, as most major forecasts envision gains closer to 5×–20× over similar horizons.
  • Kim’s self‑reported IQ of 276 remains unverified, with psychologists and high‑IQ communities disputing the figure and outlets like VICE unable to find credible test documentation.
  • He shared a photo with Matt Prusak, president of American Bitcoin, which reporting describes as linked to the Trump family, drawing attention to his political and industry connections.
