Topic: Do you think 1.00 BTC will worth more than $10,000.00 USD at any time in 2015? (Read 28793 times)

Well in the end it didn't even happen in 2016 but in 2017 we could reach 1k. I don't know why people would think to reach 10k per coin in such a short period of time.
Now i'm holding my coins for very long till we can reach absurd amounts but it'll take a long while.

Funny to read back the posts in this thread of people who thought it would get THAT high. That's a bit overambitious for 2015.
I hope it can reach the 1k in 2017, we should think babysteps. No rush we just have to up the value in a normal manner.

And to end this thread, the highest price of one bitcoin in 2015 was $745, which is only a difference of $9254.

We can only hope can't we, 10k x 100 even being small time will be a very good day indeed. It will not go anywhere near that, in fact it will not go anywhere near 1k so 10k is so far from reality it is almost saddening. But.... Ya never know 

Halving does not necessary increase prices. If we can find more use of bitcoin then the price will rise because many people store the coin temperately for future transactions.

You need much more than a couple of halvings to schieve that price, and it sure wont happen in the next year or two.
I wouldnt bet a lot of money on this if i were you, who knows what might happen.

Although the price is not determined by miners, it is affected by them.

not in 2016 either, you need a couple of halving block for this price to be achieved, miners are still playing their big role in the tanking fest

those small dump are coming from their action

not in 2015. Maybe some time in the future but it doesnt necessarily need to.

at this point it would be good if BTC would just go above 300 and remain there for a while in order to regain peoples' confidence.

it didnt look like but wish if it will be

The flurry of press from march 2014 says 180-200k. I've never seen the address nor a signed statement from the key, but it seems pretty confirmed.

Some will definitely be sold to pay for lawyers. With the victims getting the remainder in btc, or sold and transferred in fiat.

Edit: http://qntra.net/2015/04/mtgox-trustee-has-200k-bitcoins-creditors-to-line-up-as-bankruptcy-progresses/

Is that 200,000 figure confirmed? I would've thought that would be the only source of funding for the lawyers, bankruptcy proceedings etc.

He probably means the 200,000 (found) gox btc, to be returned to creditors. A sword of Damocles hanging over the market until they are returned, some will definitely be sold as disillusioned victims wash their hands of the whole thing.

mt.gox? or you mean like having no more mt.gox situations.

All the elements you mentioned can actually happen within the same year. Its just a matter of time those twins get something right.

there was a thread not long ago, but it mentioned about being 1% of any of the following categories to hit.

It has a serious point, but thats if you had the metrics to see where its at currently.

So, within the past month or so BTC has seen acceptance in the world trade markets, IE the New York Stock Exchange has Invested into BTC as well as having a Bitcoin Price Index Launched.  Coinbase got $75 Million worth of funding.  So I don't see BTC Dropping out anytime soon.  The fact is BTC is getting massive world wide attention right now, that could be a good thing or a bad thing honestly.  I Hope it's a good thing but that of course remains to be seen.  At the end of the day though a lot of investments have been happening recently so take that as you will but I am hopeful that we will see a rise in price over the year, maybe break out of $300.

Highly doubt it will reach anywhere near $10k within the year though, as the governments need to get their grubby little hands in it.  As is the IRS in the US seems to think that people dealing in BTC need to pay Capital Gains if you make a gain.  Like say you buy $10 worth of BTC Now and a month later it is worth $20, they think you should pay capital gains on that $10 you made.  Might make people flee from BTC at that point.  Just hope not but time will tell.

I mean after all who thought cars would be everywhere in the 1800's, let alone cellphones, televisions, space stations etc. 

New technology is always hit or miss.

No... its not possible... we need halving, mtgox btc, winklevos...
5 years maybe

no way, sir.

not even $500, I must say

10k is too high ...
I have a feeling that reaching 1K again will take some time. The Gox effect will linger around for some time. Possibly a 1-2 years.

I bought bitcoin at 250€ (ask price) and now i can sell them at 200 € (bid price). The BID<->ASK didnt moved alot, but the spread is definitely fucking huge due to comissions/regulation/VAT and other crappy extra payments that you have to pay generally.
