I may write code in exchange for bitcoins.

10/100 for adoption(not for value though), and my dream is 1 satoshi = 1 dollar

I think that's the dream of everyone holding even a small fraction of a bitcoin. As long as faucets are still giving out satoshis by the hundreds, everyone can get a few hundred satoshi's and hope that's all they need to make a killing. Personally, I don't think we'll get to 1Sat=1dollar in our lifetimes. I'd be perfectly happy if we got to 100Satoshi's=1dollar (that'd still make me a killing

)

I wouldn't give it any more than a one to be honest as it's still at that beginning stage where it still has room to grow and still needs time to do so. With anything so big like this it's going to take time before it's going to be any higher on a scale as to where it stands.

Bitcoin price: 1/100

So eventually it's going to be $62500 per bitcoin? Think I can live with that, heh. Fingers crossed, but dunno if that's a little optimistic. Maybe if we're lucky. 6 cents a bit, roughly.

5-10 percent all day in my book and slowly growing. I'd think it's more closer to 6 percent honestly.

interesting report. but can you give details or if you take from a source you can tell us more. thank you

Sorry friend I don't have any links for you to refer to at this time. Honestly I was just giving my opinion based on my gut feel or an educated guess. The multi colered chart posted above can give a similar example of where I feel Bitcoin it at currently.

On a scale of 1 - 100, with 100 being full worldwide adoption and usage where does bitcoin stand?

For Bitcoin community, June has been a month of mixed blessing. Prices fell from $ 128.8 to $ 97.5 (and currently stands around $ 70), a large Bitcoin network statistics such as the number of transactions per block and the number of unique Bitcoin address used to fall sharply, and the Foundation for Bitcoin received a letter of termination and dismissal from the California Department of Financial Institutions. On the other hand, the volume of Google Trends, a statistic which estimates the global level in the interest in Bitcoin, at least temporarily halt the decline, and is now back to its level on May 19 to 25, or 20% of the peak. Media attention was mixed, with some articles arguing for the reason that Bitcoin "lost light" and others say that it is now "back on track" following some good news.but for the beginning of July, I am still watching

Obviously from 1 to 100, 1 is the minimum possible so 1 person : satoshi
That alone eliminate 80% of thoose guesses.
Then dividing the number of users by the entire population is irrelevent as someone pointed out. It tells nothing.
Now everybody Will not use bitcoin so i would say 57

I think we can say where our expectations regarding the BTC does stand today. BTC is a decentralized crypto currency - there is no reliable, non-speculative information in order to make conclusions about it.

If bitcoin were a regular stock, i'd agree, but with bitcoin it's different, once bitcoin controls the economy, you won't have to cash out. Bitcoin will BE your cash.

That's the winning ticket right there, that's a point bitcoin hasn't reached yet.

As long as people still talk like btc is this many $'s, which is totally understandable btw, bitcoin has not yet matured enough to be considered a stable currency ready for mass adoption.

To put the question in the OP another way, we'll throw in that innovation curve that's been posted a million times before here:

Normally when these threads come up, people generally estimate we're somewhere between Innovators and Early Adopters, but so far everyone in this thread seems to think we're so early that we're barely on the curve.

So at the end where do you think we are? , i think we are in a similar state to facebook around 2008-2009..

I have similar view.

Will exit if bitcoin price shoot up to 5k in a relatively short period of time. And wait for next bust before getting in again.

More like facebook in 2006 or so. Hardly anyone uses it yet, although many have heard about it. It definitely has no 100%+ growth rate per month yet like facebook had in 2008.

Quote from: AdamSmith on July 02, 2014, 02:46:19 AM

We are still at early stage of usage.

There is no mutual fund or private equity firm investing in bitcoin yet. And no state and local pension holding bitcoin in their portfolio,

When you hear everyone is in bitcoin and start talking about it on every street corner, that is when you should exit and take your money elsewhere.

If bitcoin were a regular stock, i'd agree, but with bitcoin it's different, once bitcoin controls the economy, you won't have to cash out. Bitcoin will BE your cash.

I assume that even in a "full worldwide adoption scenario" (= maximum adoption ever reached) not the entire world population will use Bitcoin. But between 25-75% are possible.

So as a conservative estimate I will assume that 2 billion people will use bitcoin in the maximum adoption scenario. The current number of bitcoiners is hard to estimate. I would put that number in the 10 to 20 million range.

Based on these assumptions, we're currently at a value of 0.5-1 on your scale.

I agree and should have pointed that out, what I mean is 100 = full possible adoption of bitcoin, not 100 = every person on earth uses btc.

To accurately calculate the number we need to know how many people in 2014 are capable of performing bitcoin transactions, requirements: must have access to an electronic wallet (for security), must be older then a certain age and capable to understand the concept of money. So that's the max number.

Then we need to have the current number of individual bitcoin users (not wallet addresses).
