I think that we all are expecting to see that kind of rates, just think about how huge it can be.
But i do not think that it will happen before the end of the year, there are less than 13 days before the end of 2017.
Maybe it will be happening on January, or at the beggining of February - March.
There are only four days left until the end of the year and we seem to be very far way to reach that price, the price will need to almost double in these four days and that is unlikely even for bitcoin especially if we take into account the huge market cap that bitcoin has already, if we were talking about an altcoin with just a few million in market cap it may be possible for the price to double in such a time frame.
