It depend on how you define crazy. I think 2017 so far is the year bitcoin took off, then went down, and definitely is on the way up again. It has been a roller coaster ride. Yes, it's crazy in a good way.

Yes! It might even hit $10k. A lot of people are already setting aside a sizable chunk of their Christmas bonus to invest in bitcoins. Law of demand and supply will push the price to another all-time high.

Maybe as a perk, kind of like a stock option. The transaction wouldn't be above board since bitcoin is still not regulated in my country the Philippines. I even doubt if employers would agree to this at this time.
