Kim Dotcom Predict 2000$ per Bitcoin ??!!

[thejaytiesto]

2000$ in the long term is nothing. Bitcoin will go to 1+ million dollars per coin in the long run. In any case, Kim Dotcom has anounced that he is creating a way to store files in the blockchain with microtransactions. So once Lightning Network is ready I predict a massive FOMO by people that aren't still holding any bitcoins.

[Wind_FURY]

A bunch of tweets he made in the last few hours :

He is planning to use bitcoin so it is natural for him to hype his project. In my opinion he doesn't really care if it will reach $2000 or not. But the fact that bitcoin cannot be censored and can be used for his anti establishment stance, then it is good enough for him.

Good for Kim Dotcom!
He is a proven visionary and entrepreneur - we should wish him luck - no, support his BTC venture.

[Jeremycoin]

Bitcache? never heard of it before. But if it can raise the price up, then it must be good.

[okae]

Good for Kim Dotcom!

haha, agree, those kind of people who are really interested on bitcoin and want to use it ( and not change it) should be always welcome, and this guy Kim Dotcom seems to be one of them. there is not so much details about what he is going to do, but looks interesting, if he can integrate bitcoin into his platform, lot of new guys will start to use bitcoin, so... welcome!

I wouldn't read too much into this, pure speculation. I'd put money on the fact that his tweet was made specifically for reaction / publicity purposes... but then again this is me speculating on his speculation. 

[p_linz]

well it is just a prediction. anyone can make these.
if he wants to use btc he most likely owns some and will buy more. sure he wants the price to raise

[mk3000]

he's been telling people to buy bitcoin for a long time now. I guess he regrets not doing it himself before they seized all of his money 

[gentlemand]

He's certainly an interesting fella but let us not forget that self promotion appears to be his number one hobby. I'm sure it'll get there with or without him but let's see what he has to offer. I'm open to having my mind blown.

interesting maybe, since he did a lot so far. but rarely good. many people had to suffer because of him.
he will always look out for his own interest first. at any cost. so we will see if that is a good thing.
but maybe it will give bitcoin some momentum since his new "service" might bring some new people to bitcoin.
talking and self promotion are his hobbies so expect a lot more of that.

I hope it really happens, well, if it happens I think it is beyond prediction all the people who are here. $ 2,000 price too fast occurred in 2017 in the month of January. if it really happens everyone in this world would probably seek bitcoin, it may even be very many new members who join in this forum. I think will be very big impact happens if bitcoin prices actually rose to $ 2,000 at the beginning of the year

[Divinespark]

You probably won't lose any money if you buy here and now, but you shouldn't base the decision on pump tweets issued from a pseudonymous crypto handle

[pereira4]

Well megaupload was as mainstream as it gets. Now mega is also really mainstream. If he creates a service that incentivize people to upload stuff with bitcoin payments it will be huge and it can indeed launch bitcoin to the next level. I cant wait for January to see what he has planned.

[Whosdaddy]

I do not really know if this is possible.
Assuming that every uploader receives bitcoin for every download their file gets, it means a transaction so every download is equivalent to transaction. The network would be loaded with so much transaction if this were to happen.

well i guess it can, i hope that the prediction is going to come out as true, in this way i would make some good money out of the investment i have

[samcoin]

I hope his predictions come true , I think what happened to Bitfinex recently won't affect Bitcoin price on the long term , because many similar events happened in the past , but Bitcoin price managed to recover after that , if you asked me , I agree with Kim Doctom , why not ? we still believe in Bitcoin and in its bright future .

[Kprawn]

Do we want Bitcoin to be associated with a platform that distributes copyrighted material and now adds monetization features? These file-sharing sites are very controversial and it would create more

negative publicity for Bitcoin. I do not know if we can scale to allow for micro payment on such a small scale... A off-chain solution would be a better solution for this, but these off-chain solutions are

all centralized and can be shutdown at any moment. So we have a real problem with this, if it happens. 

[Amph]

i think it's just a way for him to instigate a panic buy after what happened to bitcoin, he want to speed up the recovery process...

[OmegaStarScream]

I'm not sure how skilled the members out here are but Kim Dotcom just tweeted again and he is looking for database & security experts , cryptographers and also some coders, he is asking people to send their CVs so In case you are interested you may want to contact him.

[KonceptCars]

I like the ambition of Megaupload 2.0. If there were more large scale projects promoted in this way, then $2000 in the short term is reasonable. Headlines are half of the battle and it looks like a lot of people follow on Twitter which is inherently a tech savvy demographic. I'd give an "A" for effort.
