Two years ago I was pissed when it went below $250, now I'm pissed when it goes below $1000. In another two years I'm hoping to get pissed when it goes below $10000 after a rally to $30000 or more.
Or 2017 could be a total retrace of what happened in 2014...
Maybe, but the miners have less coins to dump than in 2014. The massive volume of coins they were mining back then suppressed the price. That's changed since the halving.
Those same coins which were dumped in 2014 are still floating around today, for the most part. You don't think a whole bunch of whales gobbled up all the coins in 2015 for $250.00 and below and then farted away all their private keys?
