A taƙaice. Jim Cramer is a former Goldman Sachs salesman and hedge fund manager who has hosted CNBC's Mad Money since 2005 and runs the CNBC Investing Club. Crypto is a sideline for him, not a specialty — but he talks about it constantly, on the record, so it can be scored. In the last seven months he has gone from “I own Bitcoin and I do think it's a good buy” (May) to calling Bitcoin “bad money” (June) to “I'm going to sell mine” over quantum computing (July) to “Just go buy Bitcoin” (August) — and on 1 October, “if you like Bitcoin I got an idea, buy Bitcoin”. Charted against real price, the bearish turns are where he has been most wrong: the three negative calls have since gone +36%, +29% and +31% in the direction he warned against, while his one clean buy call is +21% in his favour. He is a reach-driven contrarian indicator, not a source of levels — and this page treats him as exactly that.

Six dated statements from the last seven months, every one of them pulled back verbatim from its own source page before it was charted. Two come from CNBC's own write-ups and his own X account — first-party. Cramer does not trade crypto publicly, does not post levels and does not run a portfolio you can follow, so these are stances, scored on what price actually did next. The result is lopsided and we are not going to dress it up: 1 played out, 2 open, 3 went against him — and all three misses are moments he turned negative. Note also what is not here: no outlet has ever verified that he actually sold any Bitcoin, so this page says he said he would.
“Now, look, if you like Bitcoin I got an idea, buy Bitcoin.”
Reviewing the third quarter on Mad Money, he noted that Bitcoin's rally had lifted Strategy (MSTR) 76% — and told viewers to skip the levered proxy and own the coin. It repeats his 20 August line, and like that one it is a conditional buy: no level, no timeframe, no stop. BTC's daily point for 1 October is $83,576; the show airs at 6pm New York time, about two hours before the next point, $84,842 on 2 October. Since then BTC has dipped to $81,686 (−2.3%), reached $86,490 (+3.5%) and sits at $83,778 (+0.2%) — −1.3% from the 2 October point. Two weeks is far too early to score, so this is open. Quote and date are Insider Monkey's account of the 1 October episode; CNBC's own write-up confirms that night's show was the third-quarter review but does not carry the Bitcoin line.
SourceStrategy (MSTR) Rallied 76%, but Jim Cramer Would Rather Own Bitcoin — Insider Monkey via Yahoo Finance↗ finance.yahoo.com“Just go buy Bitcoin. Don't buy the derivatives.”
Asked in the Mad Money lightning round about BitMine Immersion (BMNR), he told the caller to skip the equity and own the coin — three weeks after saying he would sell his own. BTC was $69,291 that night. It has never traded lower since (+0.0% worst dip), ran to $86,597 (+25.0%) on 22 September and sits at $83,778 (+20.9%). His cleanest crypto call of the window, and the one that most directly contradicts the call before it.
SourceCramer's lightning round: “Just go buy Bitcoin. Don't buy the derivatives.” — CNBC↗ cnbc.com“Arvind Krishna knows quantum incredibly. He knows Bitcoin and quantum. And I'm going to sell mine.”
After IBM CEO Arvind Krishna told him to get “rather paranoid” about cryptography inside three or four years, Cramer said he was out. BTC was $64,743. It then fell just 3.0% to $62,773, ran to $86,597 (+33.8%) and is $83,778 today (+29.4%) — and he was publicly recommending it again 20 days later. Dating note: outlets differ, some placing the on-air exchange on 31 July and others on 3–4 August; BTC traded $62.8k–$64.7k across that whole span, so the verdict is the same either way. No sale has ever been verified — no wallet, no size, no proof. We score the statement, not a trade.
SourceJim Cramer Is Selling His Bitcoin Over Quantum Threat — Decrypt↗ decrypt.co“I realize I'm waiting. Ethereum, really, maybe even worse.”
In the same breath he singled out Ethereum as the more exposed of the two. ETH was $1,918. It dipped 3.9% to $1,843, then ran to $2,775 (+44.7%) and trades at $2,514 (+31.1%) — the strongest move of any asset on this page, in the opposite direction. To be fair to the argument: quantum risk is a multi-year thesis and two months cannot falsify it. What two months can judge is the trading implication he attached to it, and that implication was wrong.
Source“Ethereum, really, maybe even worse” — Decrypt↗ decrypt.co“Bitcoin and gold--bad money, being liquidated for SpaceX. Apple and Nvidia --good money--being liquidated”
A one-line dismissal posted mid-selloff: BTC was the money being dumped for better assets. It was $61,670 that day — and that was close to the end of it. The subsequent low was $58,566, only 5.0% lower; from there BTC ran to $86,597 (+40.4%) and now sits at $83,778 (+35.8%). Verified in full through the public X syndication endpoint, so the wording above is his, including the dashes.
𝕏 Post“Bitcoin and gold--bad money, being liquidated for SpaceX” — @jimcramer↗ x.com“I own Bitcoin and I do think it's a good buy right here for the long term.”
Answering a caller sitting on a loss, he said he owned BTC and would not double down, but that it was a buy. BTC was $74,340. Anyone who acted on it then watched a 21.2% drawdown to $58,566 before it recovered; today it is $83,778 (+12.7%), and the best it has managed was $86,597 (+16.5%). He also framed it as long term, which we take at face value — four months does not settle a long-term call, so this is open, not a win and not a miss.

A running market joke that fading his calls beats following them. It went far enough that Tuttle Capital listed an Inverse Cramer Tracker ETF (SJIM) — which was closed and liquidated in February 2024, having failed to beat him. On the six crypto calls charted on this page, three went against him, one played out and two are open. That is a small sample from one seven-month window, not proof of a reliable inverse signal — and it is worth noting the ETF built on exactly that premise did not work.

He is a television host, not a licensed adviser, and his crypto record in this window is 1 played out, 2 open and 3 against. He gives no levels, no timeframes and no invalidation, and he reverses without warning — the August buy call directly contradicted the July sell call. Treat his views as a dated, checkable opinion from a mainstream-finance voice, and never trade them blindly in either direction.
