Do you think BTC will hit $200?

[vnhyp0]

I predict BTC will be steady at $200 USD approximately 5-6 months from now. Whether it spikes above 200 and drops back below before it stabilizes, I do not think it will, but the chance is still likely with the volatile nature of BTC and most things surrounding it (exchanges/alt currencies/attacks on network/&c). The largest obstacle for BTC to continue to rise, I believe, will be the increased pressure to regulate the digital and alternate currency markets by large countries with (some) values and goals that differ from the BTC community. Furthermore, due to the globalized nature of digital currencies, I also believe governments will try to make the regulations quite restrictive; if world governments/powers cannot control the phenomena, they will at least try to restrict the influence and attempt to make the best out of the situation (what a government considers in their best interest).

Why do you think that the demand will keep going up?
What is the demand?


I only see people wanting to get out of mt.gox and cancelling USD withdrawals to buy btc and get the hell out of gox.
But it will not be unlimited

We are going to hit a few bubbles on the way, people already know that. But, as long as there is a demand for Bitcoin, it should start rising. As, people want more and more mining technology. Specially newer and better mining equipment.

[marcovaldo]

Current price is 128.79 usd / btc, but we should see a correction at around 150 or less. I don't think that there is enough media attention like before to create a bubble and give a lot of fiat in.

[TURBOSKILL]

I expect BTC to go to the moon. $200 will come in the next year or so then after that who knows how high it could go. I don't see any reason why the rise will stop. I don't expect the bubble to burst either, for that to happen it'd have to be a bubble which it is not.

Bubbles don't happen solely because of publicity. There are other reasons such as the new mining equipment that caused a small bubble. A few weeks back we went high then went down to $100. This has risen yet again quite fast. Therefore, it could be another bubble. However, even though this might not be a bubble. We should see a few more before Bitcoin rises to above $200.

Although, Bitcoin was in the news because of Mtgox not allowing withdrawals.

[Lauda]

I expect it to go even higher.

[trevor91]

I think next 2 month... 

[martin831]

for sure it will hit it, as it is also sure there will be other crashes. i think btc has quite a way to go before it stabilise, but it will get there. just going to be a fun ride in the meantime

[Lauda]

We have all the time in the world. 

[indigenous]

It is close to $200 already. I think it will hit soon.  no doubt.

[AlmostThere]

It is quite likely, although I would not make guesses on the timeframe. As long as it exists and holds up, inflation will catch up eventually.

[DoNotMineD]

It will hit $200 within 30 days.

[Lauda]

It will hit $200 within 30 days.

That is also an possibility.
We might be going towards another bubble.

Gox average 144$ so it's almost at the middle 

[Coin4Future]

Gox price is always higher than other exchanges. So, gox btc will hit $200 soon.

[BlameByte]

Yes, I think that it will reach $200.
