Are you familiar with the trending "Future Person - Reiko Kokubun Prophecy Collection" online? A woman claiming to have come from 2058 has been posting predictions one after another on social media, and she's currently attracting attention again.

Her predictions about the number of gold medals at the Tokyo Olympics, the major crash of the Nikkei Average in March 2020, the timing of Shinzo Abe's resignation... apparently, many of her forecasts have been quite accurate, and internet users are calling her "Japan's strongest future person." Whether it's true or not, just the buzz around the Reiko Kokubun Prophecy Collection has garnered a significant following.

Recently, her statements have stirred up the crypto community. In December 2019, she used her father's account to purchase 1,400 Ethereum in large quantities and buried them in her yard. The reason she chose Ethereum over Bitcoin is because she expected the ecosystem to grow. With ETH currently at $2.31K, just imagining how much her investment has grown since then is exciting.

But what's interesting is what comes next. According to her, by 2058, Bitcoin will have reached an astonishing price (around 780 million yen?), but at that point, it will be a situation where "you can only sell and cannot buy." In other words, it might be worth buying now. Since Bitcoin is currently at $78.43K, what will happen in the future... her followers of the Reiko Kokubun Prophecy Collection are excited.

However, calmly considering it, her past predictions seem to be within the range of guesses based on current economic trends and political rumors at the time. Earthquakes, infectious diseases, political changes... vague predictions can be retroactively fitted to anything. There is zero scientific evidence, and many in Japan point out that her predictions are "too vague."

From an investment perspective, this is an interesting topic, but blindly following it is dangerous. Aside from the long-term potential of Bitcoin and Ethereum, making investment decisions based on a future person's predictions is questionable. Since 2024, the prices of BTC and ETH have fluctuated greatly due to the US elections and ETF introductions, and the market is always full of uncertainties.

Ultimately, whether the Reiko Kokubun Prophecy Collection is real or just a show remains a mystery. It might be an entertaining story for the crypto market, but investing requires assessing your own risk tolerance and proceeding step by step.
