The transaction fees are getting out of hand. Bitcoin was supposed to be a low-transfer-fee currency, but with so many transactions waiting to go into 1MB blocks the tx fee is becoming ridiculous. It needs to be fixed or other cryptocurrencies will become more popular than bitcoin and the price will stagnate.
Second layer implementations are on the way so don't worry!
You will have your immediate transactions without the hassle to wait a few block confirmations and the fees will be extremely low.
Regarding the thread title. OP will have to wait a few years, probably 5-10 years. Then $100k per coin could be possible.
Once we reach the exponential phase of s-curve adoption (early adopters and early majority) sky is the limit.
There will only be 21 million BTC ever! And 2-3 million may be lost forever!
So hodl hard and have patience. This might be the investment of your life!
