Mexican billionaire businessman Ricardo Salinas Pliego claimed that Bitcoin (BTC) will increase in value by at least 14 times, catching up with gold and then outperforming it. “Bitcoin will rise at least 14x (to about $1.51 million) and catch up with gold, then continue to surpass it. Save this post,” Salinas wrote in a post on the X platform. When a follower asked, “You recommended buying at $124,000, how is the situation now?” Salinas replied, “I told them to buy at $30, $60, $80, $100, $124 and now $108, no problem.” When another user asked, “What about XRP? What do you think?”, the famous billionaire replied with one word, “Shitcoin.” At the time of writing, the XRP price is at 2.35. At the time of writing, Bitcoin (BTC) was priced at $106,864, up 1.31% in the last 24 hours, and its total market capitalization stands at $2.13 trillion. *This is not investment advice.
