Shocked Whatever it is you guys are smoking, stop. The correct value is $9421.02 on Feb 4, 2018

He may not be so far from the truth... Closer predicted value of the actual situation, but that supposes bitcoin will survive the upcoming fork.

It's very possible in 5 years time there could even be a war within Bitcoin itself.  The problem with the 1MB size limit for example and how to deal with it.  As problems and solutions come up, I could see forks in Bitcoin as a possibility.  Some people go with Bitcoin-y for a certain reason while others go with Bitcoin-x for other reasons.

If that's the case then the early, pre-fork Bitcoins would be more valuable as they could be used on all chains.  An early adopter bonus, if you will.

How prescient!
Five years ago, they made really accurate predictions, and what they say is not happening. the username gives us a clue."prophet" Smiley

I say if people quote bitcoin prices they should denominate it in gold. USD won't exist for long.
Currently 1 BTC = 0.4 gram of gold


I agree.  I don't give the dollar much chance of survival in 5 years ( well, the name could be the same but wouldn't be surprised if its worth 1/10 -  1/100 of what it is now.

If the usd collapses $10k+

If not $500-$1000

If a major flaw is found in the code or encryption $0-$5

If there is really a fork with unlimited transaction size, then most will follow it without questioning, people are ignorant, as long as their coins are valid Grin

It's not a bug, it is a feature.

P.S. Ignorance, is definitely a factor with Bitcoin, however.



is there a possibility of bitcoin not forking though?  Is the feature of the block size limit to make transactions more profitable to entice more miners once the bitcoins have been mined?
