So far average is 3500, and median 1200.  Roll Eyes

You can already tell this has failed. Very unlikely it'll be above $500. I voted $120.

The basic idea is that if you get enough people from different demographics to guess something the average result is as good as an expert's advice.

Crowd wisdom  might be a good indicator for estimating the outcome of an election but it has little to no value for super complicated topics like asset pricing... Gl though...

Definitely an interesting experiment.

But as other have already pointed out, try to get as many different people as you can in your sample.

Probably too bullish though.

Crowd wisdom is an oxymoron.

Doesnt it depend on the cross section you interview in the first place? there are some videos on coin telegraph youtube channel where all the bitcoiners in the industry predict price points for certain dates, pretty cool stuff.

Everyone who holds BTC says high anyone without says low or dead Grin make sure you get various sources of traffic imo.

I guess you're right about the amount of "nay sayers" being low in this group. Any way you can post a link to those videos you've talked about ?

Hey guys,
I've been running a little experiment on my blog trying to predict Bitcoin's price in 2015 through the use of crowd wisdom. The basic idea is that if you get enough people from different demographics to guess something the average result is as good as an expert's advice.

I'd appreciate anyone who cares to join, It takes only 10 seconds.
Thanks.
