Everyone is quick to suggest recent performance is an indicator of future performance, but then quick to shoot down anyone suggesting that a past bubble won't indicate a future bubble. I'm confused, why the inconsistency?
On a yearly basis, there has never been a bitcoin bubble.

I still think the biggest joke on us would be $100 per btc on April 4th....however we're likely to very well exceed that by the current pace.
I'd take $100 as a nice birthday present ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

On a yearly basis, there has never been a bitcoin bubble. I sure as hell don't guess future performance based on past performance. I think you'll find most are just bullish about the fundamentals.

"Bitcoins are fascinating, for mathematicians, economists, traders, investors, politicians, regulators, and anarchists. And while watching the currency develop is entertaining, the experimental currency is no place for serious investing given the risk versus reward. Attempting to trade in established currencies is difficult enough."
I could have lived with it if they had said 'the experimental currency is no place for serious investing given the risk ', wouldn't have agreed, but that would be ok. But 'risk versus reward'? Seriously dudes? Guess that makes the writer a smarter investor than the rest of us here, who just happen to have had a pretty decent reward these past couple of months ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) . Yeah. Nobody has yet refuted the scenario analysis of mine (and countless others), which evaluates to $500, $1000, $2000 or $5000 present value, all time preferences and risks considered. As long as the present price << present value, there is no bubble and the rise may continue. The writer is smartass enough to maybe have $50,000 in assets. We can give him a tip of BTC0.0001 ten years down the road, while he is dreaming of the lifestyle BTC500 could have bought him if he had acted on time.

On a yearly basis, there has never been a bitcoin bubble. On a nation-wide basis, there has never been a housing bubble. Oh wait...

In the grand scheme of things this run from the teens to ~$90 will appear very short lived and ridiculously bubble-ish. Years from now at the bottom of the coming correction we'll all recognize how absurd it is that BTC traded at this level.

Bitcoin Fact: the price of bitcoin will not be greater than $70k for more than 25 consecutive days at any point in the rest of recorded human history.

(Honestly, this looks like a bug.) But assume that's a real bid wall: I have bad news for him. There will only be 21,000,000 BTC, ever. There are only 10,600,000 BTC available right now if he bought every last one. There's no way he'll be able to buy them all for $84. But assuming we all went totally insane and everyone sold him 10,600,000 BTC at $84, He would spend $890,400,000 and have $1,399,999,109,600,000 left over with which to buy: All the world's GDP: $69,970,000,000 (we could all just receive a paycheck from him for a year and do nothing) All the US's real estate: $25,000,000,000(I want to add in the cost of real estate worldwide but there aren't good figures on it, so please just skip this plot hole, thanks!) Unfortunately, at that point he would own the entire world and would have to burn the rest of his $1,399,904,139,600,000 in one giant bonfire, because nobody would have any goods, property, or services to sell him so the USD would be worthless. Of course, BTC prices would skyrocket. BUY BUY BUY!

What market size should bitcoin be, in your opinion? The size needed that it can be used to transfer wealth around without pushing the price around too much.

Make it "to about $100", so it will be more appropriate to talk about "the grand scheme of things" ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)
