Will Edward Snowden's New Bitcoin Price Prediction Be Accurate Again
On Monday Edward Snowden tweeted 'for the first time in a while I'm starting to feel the itch to scale back in' with the Bitcoin price around $16,500.
The former NSA and CIA agent added one caveat: 'There's still a lot of trouble ahead.'
The Bitcoin price did rally in the hours following his tweet, now up 4% in the past 24 hours.
After four days of FUD surrounding the bankruptcy and shady dealings of FTX exchange and Alameda - which Snowden has also been commenting on - could a short term bounce be due?
Snowden added a price chart with his tweet, showing the last time he made a similar Bitcoin prediction near a bear market bottom.
On March 13th, 2020 - the day the Bitcoin price dropped to $3,782 in the infamous covid crash - he tweeted:

His gut is now telling him the worst of the crypto winter is over, and short of some 'trouble' - perhaps some sideways chop and consolidation - it's a good time to buy Bitcoin.
He added a follow up tweet in his usual humble style - 'this is not financial advice and I have no idea what I'm doing'.
Snowden has however been a long-term follower of cryptocurrency and even participated in the creation ceremony of privacy coin Zcash in 2016.
This week Edward Snowden has also tweeted:
Since its all-time high the Bitcoin price has retraced as low as $15,500 on November 9th, an almost 80% correction.
