<p>A resurfaced social media post has reignited debate over an anonymous forecast that allegedly predicted many of <a href="https://en.coin-turk.com/bitcoin-price-uncertainty-continues-key-level-of-the-week-in-btc-chart/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Bitcoin</a>’s price milestones from 2019 to 2024. The post includes a striking price target of $145,000 for BTC by October 2026. Yet major questions remain about both the authenticity of the image circulating and the actual source of the predictions.</p>
<h2 id="source-of-the-post-remains-unverifiable">Source of the post remains unverifiable</h2>
<p>The screenshot, shared by the crypto-focused account Corleone, is dated December 20, 2018, and appears to originate from an anonymous board similar to 4chan. In the post, the author claims that a certain group controls nearly 90% of total Bitcoin supply and lists consecutive price targets for October 2019 through October 2026.</p>
<p>At first glance, the predictions appear to match actual Bitcoin market movements quite closely. For instance, BTC reached approximately $67,000 in November 2021, and fell near $16,000 during the bear market bottom in November 2022. This apparent accuracy has fueled viral interest in the post.</p>
<blockquote>
 <p>The price forecasts in the image seem exceptionally accurate at first, but there are multiple issues which prevent this from being accepted as a reliable or original record.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>The main issue is that the post contains no verifiable archive link, user identifier, or any traceable signature. With 4chan’s inherently anonymous structure, it is impossible to prove that this forecast was genuinely posted before the actual events unless an archived source exists.</p>
<h2 id="visual-inconsistencies-over-time-raise-red-flags">Visual inconsistencies over time raise red flags</h2>
<p>A July 2024 post on Binance Square resurfaced a similar claim, featuring nearly identical language about controlling “about 90% of total supply” and echoing similar targets. Yet in this earlier version, Bitcoin’s target for September 2024 was $105,400.</p>
<p>In the newer viral image, however, the September 2024 target has changed to $74,000, and an updated goal of $145,000 for October 2026 has been included. These changes suggest the image or its list of predictions may have been adjusted retroactively to better fit Bitcoin’s real price movements.</p>
<blockquote>
 <p>The price difference between old and new versions serves as a strong warning signal that the post may have been altered or reimagined over time.</p>
</blockquote>
<h2 id="market-cap-figures-do-not-add-up">Market cap figures do not add up</h2>
<p>The post also claims that the $145,000 target would give Bitcoin a market capitalization of $5.7 trillion, with BTC dominance at 40–47%. However, with 20 million BTC in circulation, this price actually results in a market cap of roughly $2.9 trillion. Even at maximum supply of 21 million BTC, the figure still stands near $3.05 trillion.</p>
<p>If the $5.7 trillion refers to Bitcoin alone, the math does not check out. If it aims to describe the broader crypto market, the claim is still ambiguous and fails to verify the authenticity of the post.</p>
<h2 id="claims-of-90-supply-control-unsupported-by-data">Claims of 90% supply control unsupported by data</h2>
<p>Another striking claim is that a specific group holds around 90% of all Bitcoin. With BTC’s circulating supply at roughly 20.04 million (out of a maximum 21 million), 90% would amount to about 18 million coins held by just one group.</p>
<p>Yet, according to Bitinfocharts, the top 100 Bitcoin addresses currently hold only about 15.27% of supply, while the largest 10,000 addresses control around 53.89%. Bitinfocharts aggregates blockchain-based distribution and wealth ranking data.</p>
<p>These figures directly contradict the viral post’s 90% claim, indicating that the current on-chain data does not support it. As a result, the theory that an anonymous 4chan user correctly foresaw Bitcoin’s price trajectory through 2026 remains unsubstantiated at this point.</p>
