The price of bitcoin will be exchanged for $1000 USD or more at any time before 12:00am January 1st, 2015. It need not hold for any period of time, bet closes as soon as it hits $1000 or at the end of the time period.

In the event that MtGox does not exist anymore, the site moderator here at betsofbitco.in will determine which exchange's data we use.

So what do you think ?
It is a common myth that Bitcoin is ruled by a majority of miners. This is not true. Bitcoin miners "vote" on the ordering of transactions, but that's all they do. They can't vote to change the network rules.

I'm optimistic for it but I think 2015 might be more realistic.

I actually bet it will crsah within a year,  I hope not. I really hope not but I think it will.

Now I could bet on this, but if I lose, then I lose btc X 1000 in dollars.  If I win, then I win zero.  So the best bet for me is to not bet.

I think it is impossible to predict the exchange rate that far in the future.  It certainly won't surprise me if it gets to $1000 before the end of 2014, but it also won't surprise me if it never exceeds $100 and drops to $0.01 before the end of 2014.

Not a chance. the bitcoin can fall at any moment! is not a safe investment. Is true could reach few hundred dollars, but is the risk of falling every time. Like just another Wall Street thing.  Wink

That's a really high number.

While it's of course possible, I really just don't see it happening...

with the same growth it has shown for the past ~3 months it will take ~27 more months or 2.25 years which will be mid way through 2015 to get to 1k

I think that's a bit too high, especially with ASIC's making it so much easier to mine them.

Remember the more power on the network, the more the difficulty increases.

If you believed this enough to place the bet in favour, what possible argument could make placing it a better idea than simply holding onto said-coin?

I think if the bitcoin does what its intended for that there will be some sort of medium, determined within the next year I guess, that will result in a flat-fiat-value.

Presumably he'd still get it back when he won the bet.
