We are very near to it, if it is not going to happen this then next year or maybe 2019 we've got some assurance with it. The news are good and everyone seems to get attached with bitcoin now. Other says that we are in a bubble but it's just their wish. Do you remember that we've got McAfee on our back so trust his words. 
No we are not close. We are close to reach 50% of that goal. No reason to get too excited. And expect some bigger pullbacks and bear weeks before we finally will scratch the 10k. And then we may see some massive profit taking due to this being a very important psychological round number.
Everytime the majority in this space thinks it will be easy-peasy, the market will do the complete opposite and wipeout the weak hands first and then test if the others who hold strong have enough patience until the next run up happens!! Always remember that and expect the unexpected to happen!!
It may not still be reaching 50% but look on how the price of bitcoin moved this year. Earlier on January the price was at $1,000 and now we hit $4,000. Look on how big is the percentage of that increase since the beginning of this year and up to now. For just few months we've seen on how fast bitcoin's price increased.
But you're right it's impossible for now, we are on 10-15% progress for now before reaching $10,000. And bitcoin will not just accelerate too quick just because we've seen a lot of good increase at the first quarters of this year but well who knows if there will be a quick pump.
