Call the top of this bubble!
(we'll use the Mtgox-price)

The winner gets the honour of being the most prescient.  ;D

If you think we are currently at the top then vote $400 for approximation.

The poll choices are just an approximation of your actual guess to make it easier for everyone to see what the opinions are in total.

in this case we can assume it is safe to lean back and expect double as much... ;)

There's just too much buy support.  Every attempted crash gets immediately bought up.  People are not nervous at current prices.  Once you start getting to the $800-$900 range, that will change.  Hands will get much weaker but the desire to break $1000 I think, we'll push us through.  They'll be some final panic buying just north of $1100 and then an epic crash.

Don't forget which markets are driving us. Hint: they're ones that don't use USD. I don't know if there will be skittishness around the 4000 CNY mark, but it is a possibility (assuming we get there and don't plateau or retrace before that).

By the rate of increase of tops (32-266 in 22 months) I think $650-$800 is most probable. Cuadruple digits will have to wait for next year.

It's not only China that is carrying up the price,I'm finding people are now having an interest on even paying way more than Gox for BTC.I'd be very cautious about calling a top with a country that has such a large middle class and is becoming more technically aware.Google trends (https://www.google.com/trends/explore?q=bitcoin#q=bitcoin&date=today%203-m&cmpt=q) has also been going up.

A retrace back along the low 300s and into the 200s is my outlook for rest of the weekend.  Well that's my view and I've shorted ~200BTC in the 344-349 range to back it up.

Around 700 and something like 666 or 733.

Every day more and more chinese join the race. They just gave up their MMORPG marathons and jumped into btc mania.
It may not end even after $1000.

1218 drop to 487 bouncing it's way to 9000

Post by: Wilhelm on November 09, 2013, 07:57:23 PM
We're at the top for now, only stupid people are currently still buying. It might make the 440 but doubling price in a few weeks will make people itching to sell.

If it goes $1100 i'm back to mining ;-)

$750 top followed by a $150 low

$750 top followed by a $150 low

Sounds dramatic.

I'm thinking ~$500 top, drop to ~$300,

or ~$1200 top, drop to ~$300

Post by: jubalix on November 09, 2013, 08:20:25 PM
more people have been through the 250 to 50 drop and seen the 32 to 2 (was it?) drop.

It was sorta written of both times by all the people that "know" economic institutions/ smart professors and media  as the end, and yet is has defied them and come back.

This makes people more battle hardened and inured to price collapsed. Last high 250, you just hold if take profit later if you really wanted to.

We need to weight the dollar amounts voted by the number of BTC held. And we need more votes!

or ~$1200 top, drop to ~$300

this makes the most sense to me. maybe a psychological 500 peak, 250 bottom. it seems that bitcoin likes to take 2 steps forward and 1 back.

Give it a few more days at least to see if that was the top of the bubble or just a temporary correction.

$1400. And the top will be characterized by doubling from $700 in less than two weeks. Based on comparison with June 2011 and April 2013.

Looks like $900 was it!
The option that the least number of people picked.

Title: Re: Poll: Top of the Current Bubble
Post by: beetcoin on November 20, 2013, 10:25:05 AM
here is some group wisdom for you.. i averaged it all out.

251 people voted, for a sum total of 176,900.. so divide the total by the number of people who voted, and it turns out to be an average $704.

though i did count $1100+ as $1100, so it should be a little bit higher than that.

i think my tendency is to underestimate.. i initially voted at $500.

i find it very very funny that 900 $ got the least votes.

less than 2%  ;D ;D

Does this mean that at least 98% of the market is clueless?  ;D
I don't remember if I voted, but if I did it was 400$.  ::)

This is not the end of the bubble, now we are only passing bear trap (which could still hit the bottom of $300)
