Well-known analyst Tom Lee recently made a bold prediction on a financial program: Bitcoin is expected to reach $180,000 before the end of January.

What does this number imply? According to him, it would be a direct doubling from the current level of around $90,000. The time frame is just 15 days, which is undoubtedly an aggressive judgment.

What logic does Tom Lee base this conclusion on? There has been quite a bit of discussion about this in the market. Some believe he may have seen certain on-chain data or macro signals, while others question whether such an extreme short-term increase is realistic.

What’s your view? Will this market move follow his script, or will the market give a different answer? The current market environment and capital flows are worth close attention.

Doubling in 15 days? Haha, Old Man Tang is dreaming again... Every time he makes such predictions, and what’s the result? --- 180,000 is just a number to listen to, don’t go all in, brother. --- I just want to know where he gets his confidence from; on-chain data support? Not at all. --- It's the same story every month—someone calls for a double, and in the end, they all get wiped out on the beach. --- Instead of waiting for his script, it’s better to keep an eye on the trading volume; that’s the real thing. --- Hey, just take these predictions as entertainment. If you really expect it to rise... good luck. --- Doubling? I think he just wants to crash, where’s the logic?

15 days to double? Is Tom Lee really trying to get famous this time or did he actually see something... I just want to know where this guy gets his data from. On-chain data doesn't show anything this exaggerated either Take predictions like this with a grain of salt. Don't go all-in with your entire portfolio based on it

Same old story again... Double in 15 days, my quant model can't calculate that. From historical data, these extreme predictions are always a tax on stupidity, but I have to admit — market structure is actually changing. There's unusual movement in the capital flows, need to keep an eye on it.
