In the simplest form how would it be possible for the price not to rise substantially in the next couple of years?
Diminishing supply + growing exposure + exponential investment + trading options = positive price increase.

The price is going to continue falling. The main issue with Bitcoin is it's only really useful for criminals (drug dealing, money laundering, etc.)

Think about it: Why would someone convert their fiat into BTC so they can then go to Taco Bell, or Wal-Mart, or fill in the blank, and buy a bean burrito with bitcoin? The additional exchange step is unneeded. To make matters worse you have to keep a record of capital gains. And buying bitcoin is not easy.

Fact: Bitcoin is unneeded by 99% of the world population. It's a fun experiment with limited practical use.

Steve Jobs and Bill Gates created something that everyone wants, Satoshi created something that every criminal wants. Fortunately, there are a lot of criminals in the world to sustain the currency, but there's not enough ordinary consumer demand to get bitcoin mainstream.

Only care about gadgets while missing the big picture? Satoshi created something that free everyone from banks' slavery

People want to convert their fiat into bitcoin because fiat is a scam, why accept something that is created out of thin air instead of something created with real valuable resources? Of course most of the people are so ignorant that they don't understand the scam of banks, but with the help of internet, more and more people will wake up
