What it takes? 300 Billion in one-time investement AND thereafter 82 Million Dollar new money every 24 hours to hold that price (roughly another 30 Billion per year just to run it).
Not gonna happen soon.

If we take into account hoarded, lost, Satoshi coins, I remember reading somewhere it would take $250 billion to push the price to $80,000. That assumes that massive selling doesn't come out of the woodwork. You'd be a bit stupid not to.

It would fun and fascinating if it did happen. I ain't holding my breath though.

It'll take mass adoption. We need it to be adopted by many of those industries in the picture and accepted by many stores and merchants around the world. If people stopped using banks in the remittance and bitcoin became the defacto way to send money around the world then I think that would have a massive effect on the value of bitcoin.

Note that this only considers Bitcoin as currency.

The boring stuff. Store of value, simple transactions, remittance, settlement, "swiss bank account".

The stuff Bitcoin does today.

No fancy pants programmable money or NASDAQ on the Blockchain or Internet of Things.

No science fiction. No revolutionary or speculative 2.0 future applications.

Good old fashioned Bitcoin digital money.

I think I started looking at BTC because of this.
Isn't fascinating the potential which is behind such a technology?
As I said somewhere else is like gold better than gold.
BTC is portable (even beyond country borders), a unit of account, fungible, divisible (in some satoshi's), durable (BTC don't wear out) and one day it will be the best store of value ever.
Or, at least, I hope that.

Maybe the only thing is one can't have BTC jewelry... or can he/she? Wink

rest assured that this isn't something that can happen overnight, but if ever bitcoin would be evaluated that much one day, it would mean that we reached a great usage rate

when you see it from those prospects it looks easy, but actually it isn't... the good news are there, the halving is coming, only the hope remain...

It all looks & sounds very nice but I'm beginning to lose hope that I'll live to see prices like that.

[PLACEHOLDER] Follow-up question: What does it take for today's Bitcoin price of $233 to be unjustified? (In the long term.)

Q: What does it take for Bitcoin to go 100X? (10 000% price increase)

A: It takes 1% of the most obvious target markets.

Have a nice day!

Bitcoin at 23,000 USD, yes please.
It all looks & sounds very nice but I'm beginning to lose hope that I'll live to see prices like that.
I hope it happens, it'll make us all very wealthy but my confidence in that kind of rise is draining by the day.

I love playing with that price model, the potential is mind-blowing.

Best part is; when Bitcoin takes off the targets will be higher then just 1% Cool

Bitcoin becoming a world reserve currency would definitely make it worth 100 times more Wink

More like 10,000 times I would've thought.
