Korean Man Claiming to Have the Highest IQ Reveals His Bitcoin Price Prediction
South Korean YoungHoon Kim, who describes himself as the person with the highest IQ in the world with 276, made an intriguing prediction in the cryptocurrency world.
Kim predicted that Bitcoin would increase in value at least 100 times over the next 10 years and become a universal reserve asset. He also claimed that his company, “American Bitcoin (ABTC),” would become the world's largest company by market capitalization.
However, Kim's claim of having the “highest IQ” has long been disputed. No official, independent, or concrete evidence based on test results or academic documents has yet been made public. Some experts point out that standard IQ tests can only produce reliable results up to 160-200, while the scientific validity of extreme values like 276 is not well-founded.
There has been public criticism that there are connections between the institutions that document Kim's alleged high IQ.
The situation on ABTC's side is also uncertain. The company is known as a Bitcoin production and accumulation platform, largely supported by Hut 8. However, ABTC's shares fell by approximately 15% in the first few days after its listing on the Nasdaq exchange.
