I have owned some of by bitcoin for nearly 3 years now.
$10,000 is a conservative estimate for the next potential bubble peak. $100,000 is a distinct possibility There is alot of money in the world today (many trillions of dollars), and it doesn't take more than a tipping point of a snowflake causing an avalanche for confidence in fiat currency to evaporate and pile into gold and bitcoin, quicker than a blink of an eye.
I was referring more to the by December thing. I think $10,000 requires some answers to present issues that haven't been satisfactorily addressed such as scalability but then again humans aren't the most patient or rational creatures.
