According to TechFlame, on August 18, retired NBA star Pippen posted an article on the X platform predicting that Bitcoin might rise to $133,000. He said, “It happened again... but this time, Satoshi Nakamoto didn't appear in my dreams. I woke up in the middle of the night, my vision was still blurry, and half awake, but when I looked in the mirror... the dream began to creep into reality. This time, it wasn't Chicago, it wasn't the finals, but blockchain, Bitcoin. Nakamoto was wearing a No. 1 jersey, and I was only wearing No. 33. Maybe my eyes were deceiving me, maybe a mirror was teasing people, maybe not, 133, bullish. ”

Pippen, who led the Bulls to six NBA championships with Michael Jordan, previously claimed that he met Satoshi Nakamoto in 1993
