Let's wait for the reward halving in 2016 then it's likely to happen.
Yes this is something more realistic. Not sure what advise can give, but the thing i am sure about is that BTC is not predictable! BR What's "more realistic" is bitcoin going up 10x every year since the beginning. Since we are still pretty soundly in the early adoption phase, what's "most realistic" is that it continues to do so this year. Since we started the year over $500, it's very realistic that we will exceed $5000 this year.

So maybe $5000 this year, $10000 the year after... Their "my wallet" user stats are growing at a crazy rate.

Sure, absolutely. Look at it: 1. FIAT MONEY created at zero difficulty by a central bank. For example ECB creates unlimited EUR, a scamcoin that is now equipped with negative interest rates, to make people take more EUR 2. BTC, a highly useful private money, with a limited supply and very hard to mine, difficulty 10 billions and rising. Why should a BTC not be worth 5000 scamcoins? Even a devcoin is harder to mine than a EUR (for ECB, that is) ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

I have a friend of mine at the conference this weekend and he has been speaking to a few people who think a $5000 + bitcoin could be possible.
Thoughts ?
You're crazy. Your friend is crazy. The people your friend talks to are crazy. I'm crazy. We all have two things in common. We're passionately crazy, and we know it's going to happen. ██╗ ██╗ ██████╗ ██████╗ ██╗ ██║ ██║██╔═══██╗██╔══██╗██║ ███████║██║ ██║██║ ██║██║ ██╔══██║██║ ██║██║ ██║██║ ██║ ██║╚██████╔╝██████╔╝███████╗ ╚═╝ ╚═╝ ╚═════╝ ╚═════╝ ╚══════╝By the way: ▓█████▄ ▒█████ ██▓ ██▓ ▄▄▄ ██▀███ ▒██▀ ██▌▒██▒ ██▒▓██▒ ▓██▒ ▒████▄ ▓██ ▒ ██▒ ░██ █▌▒██░ ██▒▒██░ ▒██░ ▒██ ▀█▄ ▓██ ░▄█ ▒ ░▓█▄ ▌▒██ ██░▒██░ ▒██░ ░██▄▄▄▄██ ▒██▀▀█▄ ░▒████▓ ░ ████▓▒░░██████▒░██████▒▓█ ▓██▒░██▓ ▒██▒ ▒▒▓ ▒ ░ ▒░▒░▒░ ░ ▒░▓ ░░ ▒░▓ ░▒▒ ▓▒█░░ ▒▓ ░▒▓░ ░ ▒ ▒ ░ ▒ ▒░ ░ ░ ▒ ░░ ░ ▒ ░ ▒ ▒▒ ░ ░▒ ░ ▒░ ░ ░ ░ ░ ░ ░ ▒ ░ ░ ░ ░ ░ ▒ ░░ ░ ░ ░ ░ ░ ░ ░ ░ ░ ░ ░ ░ █ █░ ▒█████ ██▀███ ▄▄▄█████▓ ██░ ██ ▓█░ █ ░█░▒██▒ ██▒▓██ ▒ ██▒▓ ██▒ ▓▒▓██░ ██▒ ▒█░ █ ░█ ▒██░ ██▒▓██ ░▄█ ▒▒ ▓██░ ▒░▒██▀▀██░ ░█░ █ ░█ ▒██ ██░▒██▀▀█▄ ░ ▓██▓ ░ ░▓█ ░██ ░░██▒██▓ ░ ████▓▒░░██▓ ▒██▒ ▒██▒ ░ ░▓█▒░██▓ ░ ▓░▒ ▒ ░ ▒░▒░▒░ ░ ▒▓ ░▒▓░ ▒ ░░ ▒ ░░▒░▒ ▒ ░ ░ ░ ▒ ▒░ ░▒ ░ ▒░ ░ ▒ ░▒░ ░ ░ ░ ░ ░ ░ ▒ ░░ ░ ░ ░ ░░ ░ ░ ░ ░ ░ ░ ░ ░ ███▄ █ ▒█████ ▄▄▄█████▓ ██░ ██ ██▓ ███▄ █ ▄████ ██ ▀█ █ ▒██▒ ██▒▓ ██▒ ▓▒▓██░ ██▒▓██▒ ██ ▀█ █ ██▒ ▀█▒ ▓██ ▀█ ██▒▒██░ ██▒▒ ▓██░ ▒░▒██▀▀██░▒██▒▓██ ▀█ ██▒▒██░▄▄▄░ ▓██▒ ▐▌██▒▒██ ██░░ ▓██▓ ░ ░▓█ ░██ ░██░▓██▒ ▐▌██▒░▓█ ██▓ ▒██░ ▓██░░ ████▓▒░ ▒██▒ ░ ░▓█▒░██▓░██░▒██░ ▓██░░▒▓███▀▒ ░ ▒░ ▒ ▒ ░ ▒░▒░▒░ ▒ ░░ ▒ ░░▒░▒░▓ ░ ▒░ ▒ ▒ ░▒ ▒ ░ ░░ ░ ▒░ ░ ▒ ▒░ ░ ▒ ░▒░ ░ ▒ ░░ ░░ ░ ▒░ ░ ░ ░ ░ ░ ░ ░ ░ ▒ ░ ░ ░░ ░ ▒ ░ ░ ░ ░ ░ ░ ░ ░ ░ ░ ░ ░ ░ ░ ░ ░

are there any statistics showing if userbase, merchant adoption etc, are increasing by 10x a year?
Measures of usage seem to be growing at roughly 3.2X per year, inline with Metcalfe's Law that states that the value of a network is proportional to the square of the number of connections. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FQD4JG9w.gif&t=665&c=QL_st-PugWkarg)

Between 4K-8k, more probable 4K-6K, The greatest potential will be seen in the future, when closed loops will establish and there will not be need for converting all BTC (or a large part of them) in fiat for the nodes in the loop.

My guess: Possible this year but I would rather think around $2500 this year and at least $5000 next year. For 2016 we could see $25000 or even more. From there who knows. If we get mass adoption and the US dollar crashes then so does EUR & GBP. Then we'll go to a moon in another galaxy. So I will be hodling an buying for at least 5 years. Even if BTC wont be "the final global crypto winner", it's not a problem for us. Surely most of us will see such development early and exchange our BTC to the new global standard in due time and possibly make even more by being even earlier adopters then we are now.
