I'm betting on $19.32 USD per bitcoin. That number came out of virtually nowhere.

$17.90 USD

It's a bit early doors but lest I forget later, I'll have my pot-shot right now 
I\ll say 15.4 USD!
I\ll say 15.4 USD!
BITCOIN NORDIC charges 9% on top of the exchange price for bitcoins.
That IMO is waaaay over priced.

My guess will be the exact number obtained when all the guesses (minus all guesses that are more than doubled the current price--$18.3790 USD or half of same) are totaled, divided by the number of guesses tallied, and rounded to the nearest satoshi.
To be clear, no guesses over 36.758 or under 9.1895 will be considered for the calculation.
If the resulting number proves to be the winning entry, the prize pool will be donated to the I-can't-believe-I-created-this-stupid-Pirate-bet fund, namely Matthew, to disperse how he sees fit.
This is a serious entry, and I desire fimp to accept it as it is. I will PM the link to this post since, with this unique guess/entry I will be breaking one of the rules:
All he'll have to do is quote this post, and somebody quote him doing such, and my guess will be validated.
At the very least, we'll learn how close wisdom-of-the-crowd will work in this case.
I, nor any one of my other accounts, will be submitting another guess.

You'll have to submit a regular guess like everybody else, but that doesn't stop you from using your desired strategy.My guess will be the exact number obtained when all the guesses (minus all guesses that are more than doubled the current price--$18.3790 USD or half of same) are totaled, divided by the number of guesses tallied, and rounded to the nearest satoshi.

All guesses are available in an easy-to-handle format here.
Shortly before the guessing deadline Jan 30, 00:00:01 AM UTC you can do the calculation and submit a guess the normal way.
Fair enough. I can submit a weighted average a couple hours before closing.
Thanks, fimp, for your consideration.

You could risk your guess already being taken by then.
I see nothing in the first post that prevents a guess like e.g. $19.19191919, therefore making a collision highly improbable. Or am I missing something?
