- Turned $0 into $200M in just 3 years
- $200M $BTC long

Here are 6 predictions from Kang you should know👇🧵

Andrew Kang, founder of Mechanism Capital, returns to crypto after a long break.

From California roots to a $500 million net worth, his journey is one of grit and brilliance.

This move reflects his confidence in Bitcoin, supported by Trump's pro-crypto policies, including the U.S. strategic reserve announced in March 2025 with $BTC, $ETH, $XRP, $SOL, and $ADA.

Kang’s predictions have a history of precision. When the Ethereum #ETF launched in 2024, $ETH was at $3,900, and most were bullish. Kang wasn’t

He claimed ETH was overvalued, predicting it would lag behind Bitcoin with only 15% of Bitcoin's institutional inflows

Today, the ETH/BTC ratio is at multi-year lows, proving him right

He predicted the meme coin trend, foreseeing Trump’s token, $TRUMP, which launched in late 2024 and crashed by early 2025 as he warned

His insight comes from his grasp of market psychology and cultural trends, honed at Digital Capital Management

1/ Bitcoin Surge

Kang is optimistic about Bitcoin, citing Trump's April 2025 post as a potential "Trump put" that could push $BTC to $125,000 by year's end, especially with possible Federal Reserve rate cuts

Analysts like Standard Chartered’s Geoff Kendrick predict #BTC could reach $500,000 by 2029

2/ Ethereum collapse

Andrew warns $ETH could drop below $1,000 due to a 30% decline in Ethereum transactions since 2023, indicating weakness

Institutional investors preferring Bitcoin ETFs, up 20% in Q4 2024, worsen ETH's outlook

3/ Future in humanoid robotics

He is investing heavily in humanoid robotics after a big $15 million to $200 million win.

This aligns with a tech boom, as the humanoid market is projected to reach $13.25B by 2029 with a 45.5% CAGR

Companies like Agility Robotics are expanding, and Kang's investment could mark a new crypto-tech crossover frontier

4/ Warns about tariffs

Trump's April 2025 tariff pause, which caused a 2% Bitcoin swing, led Senate Democrats to urge an SEC insider trading probe

Kang notes that market reactions might be delayed but will be significant, as seen in 2020's trade war

Expect volatility if tariffs return

5/ Kang Forecasts

Also, Kang urges skepticism of media hype, predicting crypto regulatory clarity by 2025 through the U.S. Treasury’s Exchange Stabilization Fund, bypassing Congress.

He advises traders to rely on primary sources over headlines to stay informed

6/ Kang’s final tip: study history

He notes Bitcoin’s 2017-2021 cycles often followed global liquidity trends, a pattern reemerging with 2025 economic shifts

Pair this with his tariff and regulatory insights, and you’ve got a roadmap for navigating the year
