Title: What will the value of Bitcoin be in one year?
Post by: Crindon on July 09, 2013, 06:04:08 PM
Where do you see the value of BTCitcoin in one year's time?

$100 USD/BTC?
$200 USD/BTC?
$500 USD/BTC?

$1000.   ;D

Is the purpose for this thread for bragging rights?  Or to be shamed when the speculation is far from accurate?

Either way, I am throwing out my hopefully optimistic projection here.

$10,000.

Unless SEC investigates Winklevii and it is discovered they bid-floored the price upward from fall 2012 to feb/march 2013--when btc got media attn and it's own wings to da moon. This would be bad and sad day for twins and btc...

Otherwise, $10,000. There can be no question about that. So many USD-Tsunami's ready to launch!

Edit/PS:

Does anybody know a way to destroy bid history on major exchanges?

edit2/ps2:

I.e., Winklevii is to btc, as Fontas is to ltc.  ;D

No question?  I must say I like how you think.  Crazy unashamed bullishness. ;)

Did you just use the same separator for the decimal and the thousands? Are you trying to confuse everybody?


My guess is between 110 and 140, depending on which exchange you look at and at which time of day :P

1 btc will equal 1 btc, however people around the world will be trading their outdated fiat for it for > $500 USD.

More than $1,000. Probably much more, if the Winklevoss ETF gets off the ground.

The next 'bubble' should take us to $500, maybe even $1000. Those are 'psychological' numbers.

10/07/2014 - Plummeted due to mtgox speculation, foreign investment fled, and the main ETF stock exchange index Bitcoin Foundation pegged 1 BTC to the 1000 US dollar.

I will say $10 dollars because I think it will take longer than a year for new services to be developed for alt coins so BTC will not disappear overnight.

But 10,000 dollars? really?

By the way, the ETF is the biggest red herring of all time

It doesn't change the fact that it's still all speculation, so while it might get some people to be exposed to bitcoin at first, the question will generally lead to

"so what can you do with them?"

to which Bitheads would say "well you might be able to pay bills with them in the near future"

to which Jane Doe would say "well I already pay all my bills online from my bank's website (who does not use bitcoin), what can I like actually buy with them?"

to which Bithead would say "well there is an ATM in the works that will let you convert your coins to fiat currency if you wanted to stroll on the dark side"

to which JD would reply "but if I had to spend fiat currency to acquire bitcoins in the first place why the fuck is an ATM important at all? seriously, there's gotta be something I can spend these on that I can't already use my cash for....right?"

to which defensive bithead would reply "so....you smoke pot? I know a guy, well know a guy's onion site, who will mail us an overpriced pound of weed as soon as he gets done bitching at DPR for upping the commission fees without warning"

yeah, nothing is invincible Rassah, even your golden goose

KING KONG, AINT GOT SHIT ON ME

right?

Yes. For a tiny group of diehard supporters and speculators, bitcoin represents unlimited potential. For everyone else, bitcoin is basically a shitty version of Western union.  One more year is not enough time to change that. In 3 years from now, if bitcoin becomes as useful as Skype is for telecommunications or as useful as Paypal/Western Union is for international money transfers, we can talk about four digit values. If the Silk Road becomes a place where you can get drugs in the mail cheaper than you can get it on the street (like everything else sold on the internet), we can start talking about four digit value bitcoins. But 2014? I see absolutely no basis for bitcoin to be worth much more than speculative value. The infrastructure and adoption simply won't be there.

I have a question for everybody that thinks the bitcoin price will be lower than it is today in a year: how many of you knew in the begining of 2013 that the price in april will be $266. None? Then to me you are not reliable with your predictions at all.

$0.18 due to bad press and a major sell-off caused by being declared illegal in the US.

Post by: jamesc760 on July 10, 2013, 05:04:28 PM
Every 14 months, there's been an increase of 10x in bitcoin price. So, I'm going to say we will see US$750 per btc sometime next year and half.

yes, especially people in Argentina will make this sell off ... or people in other countries in the world. Sure it could make drop in price but it will never make it so low.
