Title: why is it not going to $40000 Post by: Shameless Beggar on January 07, 2014, 08:50:50 PM like Wrinklefloss brothers promised?
Title: Re: why is it not going to $40000 Post by: hilariousandco on January 07, 2014, 08:52:17 PM like Wrinklefloss brothers promised? When did they promise this? They only speculated about what it may be worth in the future. Title: Re: why is it not going to $40000 Post by: oxfardk on January 07, 2014, 08:57:01 PM they was speaking about the volatility of BTC's price anyways yes they was " imagining " this scenario ;D
Title: Re: why is it not going to $40000 Post by: odolvlobo on January 07, 2014, 09:02:10 PM It is going to $40,000. Just not today or tomorrow. Maybe next year.
Title: Re: why is it not going to $40000 Post by: stork on January 07, 2014, 09:11:51 PM For 1BTC to be 40k USD, something groundbreaking must happen and before that there will be lot of road blocks that need to be cleared. It's possible but game will be getting harder when price climbs up from certain point.
Title: Re: why is it not going to $40000 Post by: dbcmaster on January 07, 2014, 09:13:45 PM I can't see that happening at all.

That's what everyone said about 1k USD tooand 100 USD before and even 10 USD, but it happened anyway. Like odolvlobo said, it's on its way, just give it some more time.

It's possible but game will be getting harder when price climbs up from certain point. For the price to rise to 40k USD would only require about 40x price increase, we saw a bigger price increase than that in 2013, so seeing this price in the next year or two is not beyond the realm of possibilities. The price might also drop back down to 10, who knows what will happen? Title: Re: why is it not going to $40000 Post by: JeremeyB on January 07, 2014, 09:42:55 PM If it can go to 0.01 Cents to $1000.
Why not $1000 to $40,000. It's just going to take a while because I believe investors are worried about getting in when prices are at $1000 each bitcoin. For now it's best to ride the trend.....

Title: Re: why is it not going to $40000 Post by: TalkingBit on January 07, 2014, 10:13:12 PM It is going to $40,000. Just not today or tomorrow. Maybe next year. There are about BTC12,200,000 now at $40,000 the total worth of all coins would be $488,000,000,000 Apple's is only worth 415,683,300,000 Title: Re: why is it not going to $40000 Post by: odolvlobo on January 07, 2014, 11:22:21 PM It is going to $40,000.

Title: Re: why is it not going to $40000 Post by: Cryptobolics on January 07, 2014, 11:24:17 PM For btc to go to 40k...u.s. dollar has to go to 10cent worth /dollar
Title: Re: why is it not going to $40000 Post by: dspje on January 07, 2014, 11:31:06 PM itll go up to 10k this year
Title: Re: why is it not going to $40000 Post by: soulnecturn on January 08, 2014, 12:03:42 AM :) 40k ? honestly?
I will said this - few days ago my wife said clearly to me this: "You will see that our kids will be able to buy house for 1 BTC one day" ... Well :P 40k looks low ;) I believe however you will look at this - how far btc can reach can ONLY be limited by our speculations hahaha Title: Re: why is it not going to $40000 Post by: Dannie on January 08, 2014, 06:24:22 AM https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=137.0
When laszlo traded 10000BTC for a pizza in May 2010, I guess he never imagined the price could go to $1, let alone $1000.

If you go by the beginning and end of the year, depending on which exchange you look at, it might be something like 15 to 850, which is 56x. Either way, that is more than the 40x increase we would need to get from 1k to 40k. Title: Re: why is it not going to $40000 Post by: tinus42 on January 08, 2014, 02:34:05 PM It is going to $40,000. Just not today or tomorrow. Maybe next year. I'm not sure if I want that to happen. The Winklevii will be so sickenly rich billionaires then, they will become even more obnoxious than they are now.

Not very likely I'd say, though several thousands is not unreasonable. A lot of people seem to be investing using the logic that the price will continue to rise like this, but it doesn't work like that. Title: Re: why is it not going to $40000 Post by: iLiekPai on January 08, 2014, 02:44:20 PM The price rose due to the American government approving the BTC, then collapsed when the Chinese denounced it. It might rise upon meeting a positive response from another "strong" country (economical aspect) or the European union, but until then I highly doubt that the price will rise more than 1100-1200USD. :)

It was over 1000 recently. I can see it creeping up back to its peak. |
