Back in 2017, John McAfee, US presidential hopeful and creator of that antivirus software you can never get rid of, made a promise that he would eat his own dick if the value of Bitcoin didn’t reach $1 million by the end of 2020. Well, turns out that was a false positive, and now he’s calling everyone stupid for believing anything he says. Also, something about your mom?
When I predicted Bitcoin at $500,000 by the end of 2020, it used a model that predicted $5,000 at the end of 2017. BTC has accelerated much faster than my model assumptions. I now predict Bircoin at $1 million by the end of 2020. I will still eat my dick if wrong. pic.twitter.com/WVx3E71nyD

Currently, a single Bitcoin is worth around $8,355.96 and is unlikely to reach $1 million any time soon. However, instead of simply admitting he made an error and would obviously rather not consume his own bits lol, McAfee’s been raging about how it was all actually a cunning publicity stunt to get people interested in digital currencies.
Wake the fuck up. What idiot thinks anyone is going to eat their own dick ever? Especially in TV!! Are you that idiot? God .. I hope none of my followers are that stupid.

Promising to eat your own dick if something doesn’t happen isn’t a way to convince the internet to make that thing happen. I wouldn’t be surprised to find that Bitcoin’s value has been suppressed purely because of McAfee’s bold prediction promises.
It’s not every day you get to see a man eat his own dick on TV, after all.
