I have a feeling we're going to see a surge of gold bugs get into crypto when they see us starting getting closer to $1000 again

If you listen near the end of this talk Rubino starts talking about BTC as being complementary to gold as a wealth transfer system. (Keep in mind these are gold bugs who admittedly are still suspicious of Bitcoin yet are still willing to support it)

There's alot more money waiting on the sidelines than we think Cool

Yup, 1K is the magic moment of trust solidification. People will realize no matter how bad things may seem, the big picture is UP and they will all rush to get in before it goes higher. The Wall Street and big Gold holders will get in sky rocketing the price, then the boat missers (mainstream) will try to get in in smaller amounts as well.

this is probably true, but how will it enter the market? when? i don't think most investors -- even retail investors -- have any interest into putting money on these exchanges, especially after Gox. we need the ETF.... and that could be a while.

Maybe services like Circle will help them. I got the invite but because I don't have US-bank account, I can't really test it.

It's like an echo chamber from last year, and the year before that.

If the train takes off this year it will snowball upward so quickly you'll wish you had access to $500 coins.

All we can do is wait and see. I'm curious to see what eBay and Paypal adoption will do to the price.

Wallstreet is getting in again? How many times now already?
Yet the price keeps dropping.

Translated: I did not watch the video but just like to make random FUD posts.

And the Average Joe would need incentives to acquire and use BTC.

is 10% LESS not a discount for you? Crowds are running over each other on black friday at walmart.
if you use coinbase to pay, you can replenish your btc at the end of the transaction.

At least 10% off of all Amazon purchases at purse.io too.

You have a lot of risks when using purse.io to buy things with BTC. If the person on the other side of the transaction is using a stolen credit card then you would, at the very least be looked at for credit card fraud, and could potentially be charged with using a stolen credit card.

I can't believe in those predictions, there are too many and too different from each other.
I think that the value will rise in the future but I don't know if it will hit the new ATH in 2014 - 15 or never.

Last year Silbert said phase 4 would begin in January 2014.

Silbert is nothing but a crook talking his book. Don't listen to that charlatan.

We might see prices of $800 next year, if we're lucky.

Global mass adoption is at least five years away, if it ever comes. I doubt it. You'd need a reliable, user-friendly infrastructure for something like that to occur. And the Average Joe would need incentives to acquire and use BTC.
