LOL, there's no way Bitcoin will pass $1000, you guys are on crack. The last bubble burned a lot of people and it was actually justified, Bitcoin was gonna be the very next thing, many people actually believed that.
This is just a bull rally before the halvening but it won't last because there's no buzz behind BTC anymore, it actually has a lot of bad buzz if you ask me. So crossing that $1000 barrier would be impossible in my opinion but I can see it reaching a peak of $700-800 to then slowly back down to $300-400 unless there are some actual announcements or actual demand for BTC.
Every single bear post like this guy, all you have to do is click their post history and you instantly notice they bought a bunch of scamcoins like "waves", "lisk", and "Eth", so now they're like, "o god, please don't let BTC go up and collapse my scamcoins to nothingness!"
Lol...you have some good points even if you are trolling me. I diversify my portfolio, I only hold 2 or 3 altcoins with heavy preference on ETH but that doesn't mean that I don't hold BTC (I would say my shares are 50-50 with BTC & ETH right now). It would be great if it hits 5-10k like so many nutjobs think it will but you all know it won't, it's just not possible.
even on ETH website it sais ETH is not meant as a currency, I don't know why people believe it will replace BTC because it's not even designed to compete with bitcoin, it's designed to ADD TO bitcoin.
I didn't say that but it's just easy money, I bought at $3 or $4 now it's pushing $14, and if you bought at $10 it wouldn't be so unrealistic to see it go to $20 before the end of the year or even more.
Now if you think it's easier for BTC to go to $1500, $3000, $5000 than for to ETH to go to $25, $40 and 50$ considering the current hype then you are very naive. Yes now Bitcoin is rallying but just wait before the halvening ends. ETH held it's USD price like a champ and BTC is currently pushing $600.
But I'm on the same page man, I think BTC could be a great storage of wealth and a speculation tool, just like gold perhaps even better in these times. However ETH holds different potential and while it's not meant as a currency but I don't think Bitcoin is either...it's certainly as failure as a method for payment for example. Owning ETH to buy stuff is ridiculous (just like BTC) but that doesn't mean its value and usage won't increase with time.
