Scaramucci’s Bitcoin Dream: $150K or Bust?

by

Ah, the tormented soul of Anthony Scaramucci, a man whose heart beats not with blood, but with the volatile rhythm of Bitcoin’s whims! Behold, the SkyBridge Capital founder, a prophet of the digital age, now revises his sacred prophecy, declaring that Bitcoin shall ascend to the heavens, reaching a divine $150,000. Yet, in the same breath, he confesses the futility of his predictions, for Bitcoin, that unruly enfant terrible, dances to its own macabre tune, mocking the very notion of predictability.

Lo, Bitcoin lingers below the $90,000 mark, a mere shadow of its October 2025 glory, when it touched the stars at its all-time high. Scaramucci, once bold in his vision, had foretold a $170,000 pinnacle by late 2025. But alas, the fickle hand of Washington, with its glacial pace, has dashed his hopes. “We, the faithful of the Bitcoin cult,” he laments, “were blinded by our zeal, believing the chains of regulation would shatter. Yet, they remain, unyielding and cold.”

The “Mooch,” as he is affectionately known, points his accusatory finger at the stalled legislative machine. The Clarity Act, that beacon of hope meant to untangle the bureaucratic Gordian knot between the SEC and CFTC, lies dormant in the Senate, a victim of political inertia. And so, Bitcoin remains shackled in the high $80,000s, its path to $150,000 as uncertain as a Dostoevsky protagonist’s redemption.

Another delay? Another nail in the coffin of hope?

Bloomberg, that harbinger of earthly news, proclaims the crypto market structure bill shall be delayed until late February or March. The White House, ever preoccupied with the mundane struggles of “Main Street,” turns a blind eye to the digital revolution. Meanwhile, the Senate, in its infinite wisdom, prioritizes legislation to thwart the sale of homes to institutional behemoths, leaving Bitcoin enthusiasts to wallow in their existential despair.

And so, we are left to ponder: will Scaramucci’s dream of $150,000 Bitcoin ever materialize, or is it but a mirage in the desert of regulatory limbo? Only time, that cruel and indifferent master, will tell. Until then, let us laugh, cry, and marvel at the absurdity of it all.
