At current rate BTC value doubles or more in 10 days, so I am going with at the end of June.  Of course, rate of increase could go down (or up), but this seemed like the most likely possibility.

good point. as insane as $100 by the end of the month sounds, I thought it was insane when people were saying it was going to reach parity with the dollar.  And here we are a few months later at $27

I say end of year, mass media coverage will play obvious major roll, and it seems it is not going to happen right away.

Not enough options. End of June or.... September? What about the months inserted by caesars Julius and Augustus?

My vote is $100 on 15 July at 8.

Silver parity before September. And gold parity early 2012.

My model, which is based on topological field theory and multiple regression analysis, shows it will reach $100 on July 12, 2011 14:38 GMT. The standard deviation is 2 hours and 28 minutes.














Oh, did I say this is a joke?

Excuse the off-topic pedantism, but technically July and August were renamed as such, not inserted.

I'm going with september, just to cover any possibility of some profit-taking along the way.

Buckle in, folks.

No "I'd pay $100 now since that'll be cheaper than waiting for Dwolla?" option?

I still stand by my prediction. I'm a buyer at 10, and at 5 and at 1 :)

Newbie panic isn't going to dissuade me, because I know what the global implications of bitcoin are.

Because before Julius and Augustus, people couldn't count?

Sept=7=ember
Oct=8=ober
Nov=9=ember
Dec=10=ember

I'm confident it will reach 100 bucks before the  next worldwide rolling  fireworks party; i dunno exactly when though, could be in just a couple months or it could be around Xmass.

50 BTC would = $5000 usd

atm

a block = ~$1000

so im guessing when the difficulty is (567358 x 5) = 2 836 790
(network terahash = 30?)

i believe in bitcoin but i think it will not reach 100 dollars in this year, maybe in the next year it will happen ... somehow i doubt it ...

The fact that this poll exists ensures that BTC will not see 100 (at least until everyone no longer believes it will happen)

That's because the Romans also moved the beginning of the year from March 1st to January 1st to coincide with their elections.

Mary, mary, quite contrary, how does your wallet.dat grow?

I see what you did there, but that only works for markets that have large-scale adoption, and the poll would have to cover *all* bitcoin users. I'm pretty sure world-wide they aren't all represented here, so your contrary strategy may have a large statistical hole in it.

Good try...
