*raises glass* Here's to a productive 8th year.
And hopefully, another 8 years of Bitcoin!
Probably will continue. Still a great currency, I don't imagine its downfall until another twenty years time at least.
I definitely think that this will continue. Bitcoin is such a great currency and it has already attracted so many people around the world in just 7 years. Heading into this eighth year, I think that this year will be an absolutely huge turning point for Bitcoin. Hopefully we get to see another wonderful 7 years. Maybe in another 7 years, the price of Bitcoin will be $10,000 and all of us would be rich because we were smart enough to invest in Bitcoin in its early stages.
