Andreas Antonopoulos said Give Bitcoin Two Years

[oblivi]

Would you agree or not?

Bitcoin Only Needs Two Years


Hmmmm... I respect the guy yeah.. But I do not know where his information came from.
2 years might be a little bold.. Maybe give it 3-5 years. I am still having doubt about that.

What do you think?

I don't think bitcoin will survive another two years.

LOL. Quoted to bump in 2 years. You guys will never learn right? Enjoy missing the boat twice.

Personally I'd say give bitcoin give more years, but I don't think a lot of people will want to hear that or even wait that long. I think the price will have risen considerably within 2 years and the block halving should make coins scarcer but it's still going to take a while for big merchants and the general public to get involved.

Coins being scarcer means nothing without demand.
Let's just hope in 2 years there is a breakthrough in adoption.

Hopefully there will be much more demand in a couple of years time. I think there will be.

I'll give it 5-10 years or even more. Bitcoin has built a new paradigm for trading and even for living.
So many things in science fictions have come into being. God knows what role bitcoin will play in future human life.

I think bitcoin will see a several fold gain within 2 years, within five it will have gone to a few thousand and hopefully within ten it will be very mainstream and the price will be ridiculous. Of course this is all wishful thinking, however.

there are only 1 MIL BTC users worldwide and up to 200K are using BTC daily .

BTC is a tinny system but with a lot of propaganda(many so called media websites and few "sharks:- directly interested in BTC- who pay for advertising in few big media groups)

Starting from when?

Mt. Gox started trading Bitcoins four years ago.

[jacktheking]

Hmm.. two years sound short. No really.. It depend on what 'changes' he think Bitcoin would have. If he was talking about price, I doubt it is true. If he was talking about adoption of Bitcoin, I think it is true. Bitcoin will be adopted by many in the next two years. However for the price..

[Daniel91]

WOW 2 years and game is over
So many catastrophic predictions on this forum recently only because price of the BTC is very low at the moment.
I can't say 100 % what will happen next but right now I think that is very good time to buy BTC and earn some profit later.
We just need a few ''big'' names like Google or FB, to accept us and attract interest of public, and we will rock again!
Some rumors on this forum predict that this may happen soon.
Even in unlikely scenario that BTC really collapse, I think that this will happen in much longer period, not just 2 years.

If adoption is higher, I suppose with more demand that would most likely have positive impact on the price. If that is what he meant in the first place even though he didn't directly imply price

Two years from now, though I don't know why he or anyone else makes these sort of baseless predictions. If they're wrong they look pretty silly so that's why I stay out of speculating on the price or rate of adoption. We can only wait and see what the future holds.

maybe he's so sure about it that he decides it's a safe enough bet.

and i think he's right.

It's a pretty risky thing to say for your reputation, but indeed in two years, bitcoin should be pretty much established, or well on it's way.

2 years to announce it'll take another 2 years for Bitcoin to reach mass effect!



That's when Commander Sheppard is able to use Bitcoin to buy beer at the Citadel bar.

in two years time we would have reached the halving and i believe we should see something when that happens.

[Beliathon]

If someone with his stature and reputation is telling me to give only 2 years, I'll definitely go with it and in fact, it's a bonus. I've personally placed a 5 years target though.

My thoughts exactly, I was thinking more 2021 for mainstream. But it's like a volcano waiting to erupt, we have only felt tremors (rapid rise to 1,000, and slow fall) so far and the true explosion could be sudden.

[BittBurger]

I'm happy if we make it past April.

Really?
What do you mean past April?
Are you saying that by April, there's a possibility that Bitcoin would drop rock bottom?

People need to get it out of your heads that "dropping rock bottom" means anything.  Bitcoin could go to $0.50 tomorrow and that wouldn't mean the end of Bitcoin. As long as there are hundreds of millions in funding and thousands of startups building out the infrastructure, Bitcoin does not end.  As Satoshi put it - as long as there are users, Bitcoin continues. 

The price has NOTHING to do with Bitcoins future success or failure.   The infrastructure does.

If / when I see businesses dropping out and infrastructure development stopping, that's when I get concerned.  Not a minute before.

He's giving bitcoin two years to do what? To propose to him? To "go to the moon"? To be accepted by x% of retailers?

What Andreas thinks will happen in two years is irrelevant. He knows no more than I do what Bitcoin will be in two years. What would be relevant is for Andreas to work with retailers to get bitcoin accepted in more stores. I'm not sure that he's really doing that at all. He's doing great things to help people that are already in "the know" but we need the people that are unaware of bitcoin's attributes.

Well there definitely aren't "thousands of startups building out the infrastructure"....

I guess it means two years until the mainstream public gets legitimatelly interested on it. In two years a lot of things will change and people may start looking into banking alternatives.

Why the hate tho?

[manselr]

2 years is a very good perspective for bitcoin, all the goverment changes that are coming specially in europe will show the regular population how weak fiat is.
