By the middle of 2017, I would not be surprised if the currency reached a value above $ 2000. Many of the projects in which some investors are working, among them development of new applications, are scheduled for the first few months of the next year, some other events may happen months later. So, I think it will not be long before we see Bitcoin rising to such levels.

To talk about a valuation of above $2000 you have to first break the $1000 barrier and the price is really having a difficulty to cross than barrier and it is evident when the price came closer a couple of times this week making me think that the price would blow the barrier out but then it came down as usual.It is really interesting to see how the price would be if it could cross the barrier.

there is no $1000 barrier because all time high is NOT $1000, but $1160-1170. The real selloff might be expected at or around ATH, but it also depends on the news. ETF approval would overwhelm any such dip if they coincide (and they just may).

$800 was a huge barrier that was flirted with and failed multiple times. once it was breached it was a breeze to go above. same goes for $1000. it may take a while but once it's gone then it'll feel like a distant memory.

Who knows where this goes but all i know its here to stay.  It might hover around 1k or it might shoot to 5k, but one thing i do know is its not going to $0 

[Moon_Man]

we have reached $1002 USD. I believe 3000-5000 USD will be reached this year

If, and it is a big IF, bitcoin follows previous patterns in a linear fashion,
then btc will have a first peak at $3892-4000 during spring/early summer, then decline to $1132-1500, then peak in Nov-Dec at $13-19K.
Then, there will be a brutal bear market during all of 2018, stabilization and slight recovery in 2019 and another bull market in 2020.
I know, these numbers are too high, but this is what I get.

There! If  even 2x  of that the price is now it could take time, 3x,4x or 5x it's too much to reach in short time(talking about months or one year), so far people use traditional  method of payment  or sending money easier and methods more efficient and with less associated risk, eventually with the course of time could change it, perhaps with some great application that can compete with the rest of the services offered would generate such sudden interest to cause drastic changes in the price.

Bitcoin price may reach $2000 six months from now. There may be many reasons for the pump. But as an indian, what i assume is, due to demonitisation of high value currencies in india, black money holders and corrupt politicians are suffering a lot to save their holdings. Government is not even allowing them to invest in gold. So their only option is buying bitcoins and for that reason, it will not be a surprise even if bitcoin price goes more than $2000

[Searing]

I have heard of this "supposed' theory with women...if you have 100 BTC in 2013 worth 150 usd you are considered 'interesting'

IF you have 100 BTC in say 2020 at $5000 per btc in usd you are suddenly a 'hunk on a stick' ....

Wonder why this is? Maybe all this BTC to $$$ ratio makes us 'smell better' to the opposite sex....

hmmmmmm...go figure BTC = upward price of 5000 per btc  x 100 btc and blamo: You are suddenly 'attractive'! Seems kinda arbitrary?

(Silly me I thought the Stargate bobble necks were the bomb for scoring)

It just depends on what people you are talking about. People with insanely large amounts of black money have plenty of options to reinvest their money, or to buy expensive paintings, Gold, etc. Money moves mountains. There is nothing that can't get done. If you're talking about people with small chunks of black money, then yes, the options to escape will be on the lower side. But still, if you act wisely, there will always be options to buy Gold or whatever other valuable item face to face. It's not the safest option since you don't know what the intentions of the other party are, but at least it's something that you can use in your advantage to cheat the system.

It is already $1010. So $2000 could be reached this year.

to everyone who said: "lets get to a $1000 first before we start talking $5000"...

DONE.

like you said, $5000 is too soon, but if $1300, i think the price will go in that range in the middle of this year. there are many number before we can reach $5000 and its need time to go that price.

TOLD YOU.

[Pente]

TOLD YOU.

we're at $770... $1000 coming soon.

Is it time to start seriously talking about $5000 BTC in the next 3 years?

You prediction was late by over 2 years

I think people must have had a faint hope at the bottom of their hearts, but may not have expected it to happen. I am happy that it happened, but let us wait and see whether this is a flash in the pan or the price can be sustained for the next 2.5 years.
