Charts and function curves in this case are not an attempt to determine absolute highs and lows in order to trade the market. The fundamentals used in his projections are simply statistical functions. The S curve is a very legitimate projection of Bitcoin's adoption as a technology. |

as brg44 says its definitely not about trading to win. its about thinking about how the endgame could play out The $300k is arbitrary - optimistic, but not outlandish. The timescale is arbitrary. The number and magnitude of cycles is arbitrary. Its just an illustration of what kind of price action is possible when you try and work back from one possible endgame scenario. It's definitely not a recommendation to go all in. Over the past 3 years I like to think that any "advice" I've given has always been roughly. Don't invest what you can't afford to lose. Assume its going to zero. Then hedge against success (i.e. don't go full fiat!). I'm also from the don't trade the markets school. That burned me enough to learn my lesson. Work, spend less than you earn, save money and spread it around asset classes. The aim is not to get rich, its to not go bust. Everything else takes care of itself. So fewcoins... COME WITH FACTS OR STOP RANTING ABOUT HOW WONDERFUL BTC IS IN THEORY!
There are your facts. Here is another one. Neither you or I know what is going to happen. Only one of us is running about the place shouting about how they do though. Your move. |

Why do people get upset about other people speculating on the speculation sub-forum?
If mainstream adoption happens the price will have to rise significantly in order to cover larger transactions. If company A wants to buy company B with bitcion for $50 million, they would have to find somewhere to buy 125,000 bitcoins at today's price. With the limited supply this isn't practical at all. The price must rise if adoption becomes more widespread.

This is a thousand times (or should I say $560,000 times) more fun than hanging out in the "Bitcoin is dead" and "Bitcoin is going nowhere" threads. C'mon and join the party.  |

Would be super sweet to see this happen. How small my hope of just a new ATH now looks. I would be happy with even that.

LOL! A lot of people have been saying that for a lot of years. Eventually, someone must be right. Even a broken clock is right twice a day. Here's another couple of predictions: After spring comes summer. After fall comes winter. Impressive, right? |

I am hoping (not for a dollar collapse) and hodling, but my concern is that in 14 months 1 Bitcoin, or $560,000 only buys a gallon of milk. Certainly ,I will promptly pay off my mortgage. Whether either has any value is my question. |
