for this to happen you need to overcome all the triple digits and double digits barriers, that will be more tough the more you fall, until you reach 10-100 range where everyone basically will start to buy

it's nearly impossible to dump it to single digit right now

Single digit? That is unless the whole bitcoin network collapses and everything is done for good. With its current state if progress right now, it's very much unlikely.

Highly unlikely, but still is possible. 5 years is such a long time in the crypto world; a lot of things could possibly happen, even the most improbable ones.

Lots of big bear talkers here.

Who will take a $100 bet we do not see single digits by 2020.

$100 seems to be low for 5 years, and I also doubt that we will see single-digits in a span of 5 years. Someone already accepted this bet, but it seems that OP isn't pleased to the terms and conditions. $9.99 is still considered as a single-digit afaik.

sure....
for single digit, we mean all valus less then 10$.
i don't know if spazzdla meant this...
but if yes, from current value,
now, at 11.24 (GMT+1), btc is 222$
btc need to loss 96%...

I think it is a little too.

 Grin Grin Grin

its not impossible. market crash occurs. 5years from now, MAYBE it can be valued at a single digit. but i dont think it will be happening. big wallet holders will just play the dump and pump, they are the only one really making money with bitcoins

Im not a believer in single digits, but youll have to think of better odds than 1:1 if you want somebody to take up the bet. why wouldnt I just short it, leverage 10x, R/R 10:1 and Im a winner.

So many big bear talkers about it going to zero I figure their big mouth would take a small $100 bet.  Seems not.

The price is being manipulated down, but it won't be manipulated down that much.

that you cannot be sure my friend. the manipulation is just speculation.
price upping or going down is based upon beliefs.
if people believe they should trust it would be up, they will buy whatever they can and the price will grow up. but if people search for alts rather than believe in btc, it will drastically continue to fall down

Okay, this means I would have to destroy the biggest part of my laptop's monitor to see BTC with only a single digit. Would this count?

what a waste of time. waiting years for only $100 doesn't exactly make sense. single digits will never happen guys. keep dreaming.

The bet should be made with BTC and in a way where no one can "cheat" his way out of the loss.
Makes more sense and makes it much more entertaining/interesting.

If OP belives in BTC he should be betting .46 BTC today instead. Cheesy

single digit???
if it will be...
it will be the end of bitcoin...
and between 67 weeks
we will see the halving to 12.5 btc/block...

and you think to see the bitcoin price to one digit also???


dont always believe that scarcity of the coin will make its price grow to the moon. it might also result in a dump and throw bitcoins to the garbage.

there are few situations which make scarcity more valueble, food, water, clothing. but bitcoin is volatile and it not the only currency out there.

alts might be able to out-do bitcoins in a very near future.
some alts are just for fun, some are here for the long run.

I don't think that bitcoin will hit double digits by then. Many jobs/services/companies rely on the bitcoin price/protocol and they won't let it hit so low. I think by 2020 the price will be 3-4 digits big, but that is just speculation and nothing else.

I don't even see single digits, and I'm bearish as hell at the moment. That would be a terrible bet to take.
When I first started reading, I thought it was going to be double digits. I was almost willing to take that bet. If I lose, it's only a hundred bucks.. But single digits? I don't see it. At least not as long as Bitcoin isn't broken or abandoned before 2020.

If I want to bet for a further 95% decline I think I'll find a lot better odds than 1:1.

I'll definitely take you up on this bet.

If one bitcoin exchange shows $9.99 or less as the current Bitcoin price for 1 nanosecond at anytime between now and 2020 you will pay me $100, and if in the year 2020 that hasn't happened I will pay you $100. Deal?

I'd do two major exchanges, legit volume.  3 nobody exchanges and a couple $9.99 sells doesn't that's not the real price.

I`ll take that bet.  Cheesy jk. I dont gamble. But 2020 is 5 years from now lol.

If you really think a bunch of multimillionaires and billionaires going to let this coin drop, you are naive. They can buy up all the debt to fixate the price value if they really wanted it to, so when you see those facebook twins pumping more money.. it aint going to single digits.
They could make the coin 4 digits NOW. If they are letting it bet his low its on purpose. People should see it as a gift for us plebs to amass as much as possible. Don't cry later when you realize you missed this chance.

Sounds like a cool deal for the FUDfaces in here. Is there any way to secure a deal and guarantee it gets paid with a countdown until 2020? that would be a good service.

Sounds like you haven't thought this through, OP.
Why would you, or anyone else, put $100 in escrow for five years, on the off-chance of winning $100?  Sounds ridiculous.

@Blazr: make sure he escrows at least 10 BTC, because that's what you'll need to get $100 when BTC hits single digits.

that is not correct i think, i can create an exchange and buy a domain for 4-5$ then post it here, get $100 and close down the exchange.. lol

We can decide on what exchanges count, but blockchain.info needs to count or I refuse to bet.

i am not the OP but still i would answer it.

if the bet was taken for the duration of now till 2016, i would have participated in the bet. but now and 2020? its too long. there are many other alts which will surpass bitcoins in some years.

No I am betting between now and 2020 Bitcoin is never worth less than $10 USD.  Like I said there are lots of big talking bears on here.

single digit might be impossible, i can agree on that. but 100$ is not difficult to happen
