Crypto is a bit like a family. Like all families, it has that one unhinged about aggravating to advertise anybody on get-rich-quick schemes and cabal theories. John McAfee has become a reliable antecedent of ball through the buck market: Bitcoin prices go up or down, but Uncle John is an great accumulation of ball gold.
If you adulation this appearance as abundant as we do, you ability acknowledge these episodes as agreeable reruns. For those of you who absolute your newsfeed to reliable sources, here’s what you’ve been missing:
Million-dollar Bitcoins
No charge to amble on that prediction. There’s still two years to go afore we acquisition out if John McAfee will accept to eat his, umm, words. Until then, he’s fabricated affluence of added calls to analysis up on.
It’s not accessible to comedy affluence teller, but McAfee apparently set some affectionate of almanac for the best amiss predictions:
Among the contempo forecasts:
And our favorite:
2. McAfee 2024
Sometimes if you’re absolutely unlucky, your crazy about gets the abstraction to run for office, consistent in astronomic embarrassment for the absolute family. But abundant about Donald Trump.
Crypto Briefing reported on McAfee’s additional presidential run back it was aboriginal announced, but we had no abstraction how abundant of his appropriate booze would accomplish it into his attack platform.
Here’s his angle on healthcare reform, via CryptoSlate:
“Look at the massive amounts of money time and accomplishment that was put into Obamacare, and again the aforementioned bulk of accomplishment put into unwinding it. And yet, with the blockchain — with Docademic — we accept chargeless medical affliction for everybody.”
Yes, that’s a austere angle to alter medicare with one of the president’s pet projects, to alter in-person clinics with online telemedicine adjourned by abstracts sales.
3. The McAfee ICO. Both of them.
As markets took a abatement beforehand this year, John fell aback on his greatest talent: talking up penny cryptos like a door-to-door Mary Kay rep. But, no best agreeable with shilling for others, the crypto arbiter launched an ICO of his own.
Ordinarily, we’d apprehend article alleged McAfee Coin to be a huge hit. Not alone does the architect accept the acclaimed name in crypto, shilling ICOs is actually what McAfee does best.
Somehow, things didn’t work out. In a bazaar area investors bandy money at the craziest account imaginable, McAfee somehow managed to run the alone antecedent bread alms that didn’t accession any money.
Most bodies would be annoyed active one business adventure into the ground, but John McAfee does not accept in limitations. Shortly afterwards McAfeecoin, the approaching admiral appear a abstracted currency: the McAfee Redemption Unit, a physical, fiat banknote.
You can apparently assumption how that angry out.
On the additional side, if you’re attractive for a website, www.mcafeecoin.com is now available.
4. The Vendetta Against HitBTC
Every aberrant about is at war with someone, whether it be the Illuminati, the Rothschilds or the Post Office. Over the accomplished few months, McAfee’s admired bete noire—bigger than Freemasonry and the Federal government combined—is HitBTC.
Going for HitBTC is one of Uncle McAfee’s smarter moves, because how continued the barter has been ambit the drain. Which of HitBTC’s abounding failings did our approaching admiral alarm them out on?
He was mad that they wouldn’t account Docademic, the McAfee abettor of the week.
Future historians will absolutely attending on in abhorrence at how an abstruse cryptocurrency barter captivated aback an app that lets you Skype with a doctor. In the meantime, alas, the tragedy continues.
5. The Unhackable Wallet
In the latest adventure of this absurd drama, Uncle John took a breach from replacing your doctor and admiral with a new product: a accouterments wallet so avant-garde that the approaching admiral alleged it “Unhackable.”
You can apparently assumption what happened next.
To Bitfi’s credit, it doesn’t arise that the wallet was actually hacked, because there’s annihilation to hack: the accouterments doesn’t arise to be abundant added than a accessory for axis seeds into keys.
That ability be aegis enough, but Uncle John replied in archetypal McAfee fashion:
These are aloof the latest gems of McAfee wisdom; we haven’t alike brushed the basal of the crazy barrel. But as continued as there’s added bits advancing out of his aperture than activity in, and as continued as Bitcoin stays beneath six figures, the abutting two years should be a aperitive amusement for all involved.
