I hope I got that right now, if not then I will just roll everyone affected forward a bit, please let me know if any of you see that it's still incorrect, many thanks. If I messed up & you're chosen date/s are already taken then I'll allocate you the next one/s available, sorry for any confusion OK, I think that it's now all sorted out correctly, I will refund anyone who is unhappy with their changes & buy their dates for myself, please let me know ASAP if so, many thanks. See post #2 for correct dates taken, all others are currently available, but best to check the blockchain address first too for any that may be incoming.

It seems that all is well with the date allocations, after getting some advice I have now removed the cut off date for entries & changed it to a BTC price one, but this remains flexible & it will be up to those who participate to decide how long they wish it to be open for further entries, in any case good notice will be given.
OP changed to:
Please express dates as YYYY MM DD or as 29th Feb 2017 say, entries will be closed on the 1st May 2014 when the Bitcoin price hits $500 (but this may be extended by popular demand up to say $750-ish if the majority of those playing wish). Closest guess wins obviously, dates are by GMT/UTC time.

Whatever you do, the sooner it's set in stone the better. I'd pick $750 myself.

Thanks for the input, I'll go with whatever most participants recommend, yep $750 is still plenty far enough away from $1000 to be an OK cut off point, I don't see that it needs to be set in stone as early as possible as people can continue to choose further dates as it goes along & all money in the pot goes to the eventual winner, maybe I've missed why it would be better to decide on this early - if so please let me know anyone who prefers that.
I guess it would matter if the price went from $200-ish to $400 plus really fast, then sure it would be best to decide on the cut off level, I think we still have a while though, ie no dates from 2013 picked so far..

I think we need to decide now, whether it is $500 or $750. Rules must be clear.
My proposal is $750.
(Bitcoin's average growth rate is 0.65% per day and using this average, it takes 44 days from $750 to $1000.)

I'm cool with $750, 1 vote so far from participants for that, 2 if you count me - I'm going to play but am letting others choose any of the more likely dates first.

So 2017 then, that's when I predict mass adoption in the US, once some funds & trusts kick in over the next year or two I expect we'll see + $1000 np & an epic bubble/s.

Bump for this, still the whole second half of 2014 up for grabs, see post #2 for available dates & OP for instructions. I see that BTC China has now overtaken Mt. Gox for highest volume.

Everyone seems to be so optimistic about Bitcoin, another 100 years until it hit that much

(Bitcoin's average growth rate is 0.65% per day [...])
So it will take about a full year to reach a factor 10 in price. If that is true, sell your house, your car and your wife and go all in

Thanks sgbett, adding you now, good luck! Just spotted that there was an entry from Equus on 2013 10 29, so I'll do that first & add any days that he may have got in July to the next available dates after the 31st July for you sgbert, hope that's OK, I haven't looked to see if he did choose any yet, will edit. Cool seems he didn't pick any in July 2013 so all is good, adding you both to post #2 now. https://blockchain.info/address/1ThousandAF3VeVnQtteX6htvjZoREs35
