We can hypothesize, but there is no known way to ever test it. At least not with the information getting out of the black hole.

Without being able to test, the insides of blackholes are outside the realm of falsifiability and thus forever beyond science.

Maybe, but if we found or made a tiny black hole, something could be beyond the event horizon just before it evaporates.

Or maybe spin it fast enough so the singularity is visible.
