Does it really matter?
Shouldn't it say something like 3 OZ of silver?

I would say within 5 years.
That was my guess as well, but I've been wrong before.

I think the definition of a bitcoiner is "a person how wishes he could free himself form dept slavery that is the bank's fiat system. He pushes the idea to everyone around him, not motivated by greed but by the prospect of finical freedom. Bold and fearless the bitcoiner transfers his wealth into bitcoin, hoping to see the day where people around the world stand together and cause the long over due finical revaluation" Its going to take a lot of time for people to realize that their even is a problem, and a need for something like bitcoin. people need to wake up, and that will only happen with a disaster... lucky for us the banks have been planning such a disaster almost a century, as they make their final moves to OWN us all, bitcoin will be the peoples beacon of hope. end of inspirational ramble ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

Chances are generally very low for 1 BTC = $100. Unless the dollar goes nuts (which, in fact, has high chance) ...

It's not so much when Bitcoin will hit $100, but when $100 is only worth 1 BTC.

I honestly don't think so - even all the political and philosophical aspects aside, Bitcoin has the potential to be one of the most efficient online payment systems. Within the next 1-2 years I expect the scalability issues to be solved and some more advanced features to be implemented. Together with many new competing Bitcoin payment providers similar to Bit-Pay who enable cheap and easy integration for merchants who still want to get fiat, Bitcoin is pretty much bound to reach a non-negligible market share in the realm of online/mobile/micro- payments. To facilitate only 1% of those huge markets would require one Bitcoin to be worth > 100 USD. Add in some speculators/investors and you'll get there even faster. Of course there's all kinds of possible roadblocks (mainly increasing regulatory intervention) but so far Bitcoin has turned out to be very resilient even in really rough times and it may well turn out to prevail against even more serious attacks.

I disagree strongly: the bitcoin economy is nowhere near the breadth or maturity of the USD economy. If it was, then we could talk coherently about the value of the dollar denominated in bitcoin. However, as it is now and for the near-term future, bitcoin's value is primarily determined by its exchange rate against the dollar, euro, or other currencies. If there was anything close to parity between the amounts of goods and services available for e.g. USD or EUR and bitcoin, then we could say something like '$100 is only worth 1 BTC', but not until then. During this phase of bitcoin development, the gap between a speculative digital commodity and a full-fledged distributed digital economy needs to be bridged. As long as bitcoin is more accurately described as a digital commodity, it's more coherent to say that the price of bitcoin fluctuates against the dollar than the other way around. All that being said, it be pretty sweet if we ever get to the point where we can talk about USD losing value against the bitcoin, but we won't be there until BTCUSD is at least $10,000. And there's a real chance that won't ever happen. As to the topic post. I think bitcoin will pass $100 within the next two years, I'd put my guess around August 2013.

Something's gotta give. They are running out of financial sectors to inflate. Eventually, the currency itself is going to bubble and pop. Either the dollar will be re-issued at 10:1 to pay off the national debt, or they will just have to run the presses to keep government and debt going. Either way Bitcoin will be worth 10x what it's worth now.
