The value of the Bitcoin will continue to explode, this will reflect contrary to popular belief in the fees and fungibility.

There is risk of anything Internet generated and "virtual" that is unsafe, or has the potential to be hacked. You have to decide if the risk is worth the reward.

I also feel there are many benefits of Bitcoin that outweight Cash as the main currency of choice.

Because they have been brainwashed and taught that it is a scam with all the skeptics who know nothing about it and do not care to open their minds to learn about it.

It has the potential to become that valuable by the end of 2017 but don’t see it happening in just a few weeks time- but by March of next year it will be fruition.

Marketing and using social media to spread the word is your best call, also accpeting bitcoin is a good way to get the word out that bitcoin is here to stay.

Predictions like that are just that predictions- if you want to stake your future on one man's "prediction that is a matter of personal preference.
