Crypto Bros got a little too excited this week when an online news outlet misreported sandwiches back to tracking the price of Bitcoin (BTC) for McDonald’s Mcrib’s re-release.
Analyst Jack McCordick, known as “Internbra” in X, claims that Mcrib has “historically” announced the latest rise in BTC prices.
McCordic’s graph shows that when Mccrib returned to the US in 2020 and 2023 and the UK returned to the US in 2024, BTC prices increased by 237%, 71% and 58% respectively.
However, when Mccrib was released in the US in November 2021, the price of the BTC actually fell by 74%.

The McCordic graph also does not mention the October 2022 US release of Mcrib as part of the Farewell Tour. For another December 2024 release, two times each, BTC prices fell 23% in one week and 20% in five months.
Despite not being this nasty price action, McCordic posted an Mcrip chart on Thursday after a report from Dextero claimed the sandwich would be returning to the UK on October 16th.
He told his followers “Don’t fade Mcrib,” and added a new apparent mcrip release to his graph.
However, Dexerto’s report was later deleted, and McDonald’s UK confirmed with Protos that Mcrib will not be returning this month.
sorry.

Dexerto may have accidentally caught last year’s report. This also states that Mcrip will return in the UK on October 16th.
Either way, BTC appears to be doing well without the mcrib. It has now increased by 13% over the past seven days.
