The whole mess is because we have and media like FOXNEWS and experts like this: http://www.foxnews.com/tech/2015/11/25/isis-parks-its-cash-in-bitcoin-experts-say.html The one a only positive sentence from that article is: "There were 1.3 million bitcoin users last year, according to Juniper Research. It estimates there will be 4.7 million users by the end of 2017."
The 1.3 million is an overestimate for the bitcoin users. If 1.3 milion people regularly pay goods and service with bitcoin, the price will be over several thousands US dollars now.
