Superstate CEO Robert Leshner would reconsider his belief in Simulation Theory if Bitcoin hits $100,000.
The simulation hypothesis suggests our reality might be a simulation, gaining traction from advancements in VR and AI.
Proponents argue that the absence of verifiable evidence could indicate a simulated reality.

Bitcoin's Surge Towards $100,000
Could Bitcoin reach $100,000 today? This question is captivating traders and enthusiasts alike. Currently, Bitcoin is trading at $95,505, needing just a 4% increase to hit that milestone.
Superstate CEO Robert Leshner has publicly stated that if Bitcoin reaches $100,000 on November 28, he would reconsider his stance on Simulation Theory. He remarked, "I don’t believe in Simulation Theory, but if it happens that would convince me." This is particularly interesting as Bitcoin has previously crossed significant thresholds on this same date in 2013 and 2017 when it hit $1,000 and $10,000, respectively.
The Simulation Theory
The simulation hypothesis, proposed by Nick Bostrom in 2003, suggests that our reality might be a highly advanced simulation. This theory has gained traction due to advancements in virtual reality (VR) and artificial intelligence (AI). Technologies like Apple's Vision Pro are pushing the boundaries of our perceived reality.
Proponents argue that the lack of verifiable evidence could be a characteristic of a simulation, maintaining an illusion of a base reality. If Bitcoin reaches the coveted $100,000 mark, it could serve as a piece of evidence supporting this hypothesis.
However, Polymarket bettors currently see only a 21% chance of Bitcoin achieving six figures this November.
