Touched on some good points; although I think people are a little too expecting of a price hike.

As a miner, I'm cool if the price just stays at $1,000, heh.

I think the issue is that everyone is focusing too much on price in general!  There's a lot more to BTC then just the value against the USD.  Hopefully it'll help encourage more adoption and people to accept BTC!

Increase in value will bring people who see it as a speculative play.

Stability will bring peoplle who want to use it as a payment option/store of wealth.

Can't have one without the other = volatility.

Its gone from $10 just over a year ago to $900 now. You can hardly expect the price to flatline .... that would be a portent for the end of bitcoin. Momentum alone suggests the price *must* increase by some amount, even if a few measly $K
