I'm so confident in my prediction that If I'm wrong, I will give $1000 in $BTC to anyone who retweets this post.

Why It Matters: This year, in an exclusive conversation with Benzinga, Cryptowhale said the main purpose of his Twitter page is to “provide the crypto community with a realistic, honest, and contrarian voice that goes against the moon boys and maximalists.”
Mr. Whale’s popularity was buoyed when Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:TSLA) CEO Elon Musk responded to one of his tweets criticizing Bitcoiners. He currently has over 510,000 followers on Twitter.
Price Action: At press time, over 24 hours, Bitcoin traded 1.5% lower at $33,545.46, according to Benzinga Pro data.
