The post Did You Know? Max Keiser Predicted $1M Bitcoin in 2010 appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News
When Bitcoin was worth just cents and barely on anyone’s radar, Max Keiser made a bold call: it could hit $1 million someday.
Now, in 2025, with Bitcoin trading around $107,383, that early prediction is making headlines again especially since Keiser made it back when Satoshi Nakamoto was still active.
Bitcoin at $0.30: The Keiser Report’s Early Belief in Crypto
Keiser and his wife, Stacy Herbert, were among the first to talk about Bitcoin on TV. Their show The Keiser Report, which aired on BBC and RT, started covering Bitcoin in 2010 – when BTC was just $0.30.
In a 2013 episode recently shared by Bitcoin historian Pete Rizzo, Keiser called Bitcoin “the currency of the resistance” and “the seed of revolution.” He believed it could help struggling nations like Greece, which was hit hard after the 2008 financial crisis, build independent economies, free from the control of “kleptocrats” in the U.S. and U.K.
Back then, Bitcoin had just reached $200. Keiser predicted it would climb to $1,000, $5,000, $10,000 and possibly as high as $100,000 to $1 million, if it captured even a small share of the global forex market.

Today, Bitcoin is no longer just a niche asset.
Earlier today, Whale Alert reported a massive transaction: 7,999 BTC, worth around $858 million, was bought on Coinbase and moved to an unknown wallet, likely for cold storage.
Moves like this show Bitcoin’s growing role as a store of value, echoing Keiser’s early belief in its long-term potential.

Bitcoin’s Global Impact
Keiser’s impact reaches El Salvador, where Bitcoin is recognized as legal tender under Bukele’s governance. With the rise in institutional adoption, Keiser’s prediction of $1 million seems increasingly like a goal rather than a fantasy.
With the ‘Keiser Report’ still supporting cryptocurrency, Keiser and Herbert’s Satoshi-era vision is still inspiring and shows how Bitcoin might be a significant player in world finance.

Max Keiser is an American broadcaster, filmmaker, and staunch Bitcoin advocate. He co-hosted “The Keiser Report,” where he and his wife Stacy Herbert were among the first to discuss Bitcoin on mainstream TV. He now serves as a senior Bitcoin advisor to El Salvador’s President Nayib Bukele.
Bitcoin’s recognition as legal tender in El Salvador under President Bukele’s governance and its increasing institutional adoption align with Keiser’s early vision of Bitcoin empowering nations and becoming a significant player in world finance.
Experts project Bitcoin could reach between $150,000 and $230,000 by year-end 2025, with some ambitious forecasts even targeting $250,000. This is driven by continued institutional adoption, strong ETF inflows, and favorable macroeconomic conditions.
