Outcome evidence
Bitcoin broke above $20,000 for the first time this cycle on December 16, 2020 — roughly 9 months after the 2020-03-09 prediction and about a year before the 'late 2021 at the earliest' threshold.
Cointelegraph corroborates BTC first traded above $20,000 on Dec 16, 2020, confirming the $20k level was reached well before Q4 2021.
Corrections
- Prediction timeframe: 'maybe even 2022' is not part of this claim; the '2022 or 2023' phrase in the transcript refers to the cycle PEAK, not to reaching $20k. Basis should quote the actual reach-$20k words.
