Seems like it should be a hair more vertical, which is good news.

I might have it correct now?


or not?

(I used "0" for for January 2009, btw. should I use "1")


the regression might look off because remember, he derived it from monthly averages

or -2.8 + 5.2/(57(mos_since_jan_2009))

Is "57" a function or should there be a "*" behind it.

If the latter then no, that can't be it since that monotonically decreasing and always < "-2.8 + 5.2"


isn't it on a log scale

what about

-2.8 + (5.2/57)(mos since jan 2009)

If the former we need the definition of "57"

To anyone, if we could get a graph over actual prices, and then an extension of the regression line past where we are today into say, 2014, I'd greatly appreciate that Smiley

Somebody with more skills, please!! Smiley

I'm on it, but what exactly is the equation?

Now, by applying log-scale and drawing a trendline using the linear regression with least square error, we find that the equation of the trendline is:

-2.8 + 5.2/57(number_of_months_since_Jan_2009).

doesn't seem right. "-2.8 + 5.2 * (number_of_months_since_Jan_2009)" maybe? Doesn't seem right either.

Confused, please help.

Change the custom time as you prefer

with the graph of this
-2.8 + 5.2/57(number_of_months_since_Jan_2009).

In my understanding, number of bitcoin users now is only 350,000, less than a million at least.

When it reaches 100 million, we are still in early adopter phase in global scale.

It is very important to realize that all growth has its limits, and the limit for bitcoin growth is that it replaces all other liquid wealth. That would lead the purchasing power to be in several million$ range. A more conservative scenario, that of replacing gold, would put the price at $300k/BTC.

It's still at least a 1500-bagger Wink


Good brainwash - $300k is now "conservative" as Chamath estimated $0.5-$1M...  Grin

Hehe, and people on reddit call each other insane for predicting $1000 by 2014. lol. Some clearly haven't grasped the enormity of what is hitting them yet.

Meh, it's a little disheartening to hear people think that way. They're clearly thinking along the lines of "That means my 50 BTC will be $50,000! No. Way!". But all that's saying to me is how overvalued $50,000 is to them, not how crazily Bitcoin is appreciating. Reminds me of being a kid visiting Italy, 1,000,000 lira was the equivalent of about $50. I've always understood since being that young that a million of anything makes you ask the question, "yeah, but a million of what, exactly?".

More long-term targets:
- $1000: May 2014
- $10,000: April 2015
- $300,000: August 2016.

Yeah and applying that logic for Microsoft share beginning since ther IPO and ending in the year 1998 oder 2001 one share costs now 100 gazillions  Roll Eyes

We're at the beginning of the S adoption curve so these predictions aren't completely unreasonable. Of course at some point the growth will level off.

I'm so proud I have 3 of these Wink


I like to spend them whenever I have time for a conversation about bitcoin, but then it is pretty easy for me to get more as I don't pay much for shipping.  Wink
