Poll: When will we see $200 again?

[BitChick]

Bitcoins market seems to be seasonal. My guess is this fall we will at least get near $200. By November probably.

Interesting.  Any ideas why this is?  Will that mean that around next April is when we might see $1000?

Realistically, sometime early September.
Ideally, tomorrow.

 

That would be far from ideal. Think about it.

I find myself in the strange position of wanting the price to go down. I've had to cash out some of my holdings to pay for my summer holidays, and now I want to be able to buy back, ideally at a lower price

Perhaps there are a lot of people in a similar position?

Yes there are, I preffer lower price of Bitcoin as well.

For some reason the bubbles happened to occur around April. While in the beginning of summer the price dropped and stayed low.

The reason might be the type of people who are holding bitcoins are of the same mentality or age group with similar interests. They sold their bitcoins in the summer at the same time so they could do other things with the money and now summer is ending they are going back to buying back their bitcoins.

When school starts again the idea of bitcoins will spread beyond people's peer groups and to classmates.

So far every Apr. has brought a huge price gain. But because of the ridiculous high prices of Apr 2013 the game might have changed so a bubble can happen any time soon. Especially since a lot more people have been brought into the bitcoin world making it more dynamic.

We will have to wait and see. Bitcoins market is so unpredictable and fun to watch.

Discounting major spikes again, I'd say no. IMO $1000 won't be stably reached until late 2014.

I am perfectly fine with late 2014.

Sooner is better of course. Unfortunately my small stash would not be worth enough at $1000 to start a country.  It would be enough to pay for my kids college though, at a private institution.    That was my main goal with investing anyways.  Oh, and hubby wants a new Mercedes too.

My guess was "before 2013 ends" but I suppose I'm tempted to put even more of a constraint on it.
"before september ends"

I want it to go down as well, at least in the short term. When it goes down the spread between Gox & Bitstamp typically gets less, and I have USD stuck in Gox. Also I sold at $102.65

EDIT: YES! Bitfinex 4 da win Nvm now I want it to go up up UP

[Tzupy]

Selling that close to a buy wall was a wrong move. Unless the buy wall gets eaten quickly, in which case
selling into it before it disappears is a good move ( I did this several times ). For now, you'll have to either
take a loss by buying higher or wait. The current market status is undecided as I write this, maybe the
expected rally is going to be just a flash in the pan, in which case you better wait for the drop. OTOH, if the
expected rally gets real ( but for now I don't see the money ), the price will go up to maybe 120 in a few days,
so you'll have to wait longer until it drops below 102.
Edit: Bitfinex, hmm? Risky but it may pay off.

[vokain]

doesn't look like there are much funds there to go long..so if you're thinking of going short, good luck!

[Kazu]

So, if I short at bitfinex, can I use the resulting btc to lend out at a profit? Or are you not allowed to lend like that while you're in debt?

In any case the depth there is sucking, but I shouldnt complain, if it had been deeper maybe I wouldnt have got that btc back

[Kazu]

So Lets see if bitfinex can save the day a second time. Waiting for a good entry time to sell and then loan my funds out for a bit at those astronomical rates. Then im going to compensate by levering long at broker1 as explained in sig. The problem is those huge spreads. Trick now is to pick the best time to buy, when I think the gox/stamp spread is the lowest its going to be in the near future. Then if all goes well I can sit back and collect interest.

Since the "When will we see $100 again" poll has now been achieved I thought it would be fun to start a new poll.  I predict by the end of next month, August 31st, we will get to $200.  I am admittedly and unashamedly very bullish at all times though.  I do find it fun that some people voted that we would never see $100 again in the last poll and that did not last long.   See you on the other side of $200!!   

I am confident we will see $200 by early 2014, There is no stopping it alot of investors are jumping into digital currency and Bitcoin is the ultimate speculative Digital currency investment vehicle. We will def see it go to $500 sometime next year.

I know there are people calling for a $1 Million per bitcoin but that will only happen if a total collapse of fiat happens, which seems to be an unlikely scenario, given the masses are convinced the Dollar is worth something no matter how devalued it gets.

Sooner than expected!

In 1920 the average German still valued the Reichsmark. Two years later, no more, it was stove fuel.

If Paypal adopts Bitcoin the price will rise pretty fast I think.
