Do not be too pessimistic ole friend... Bitcoin will pick up at it's own pace, as adoption increase and more people and merchants start using it. Just lately Barklay's bank and Circle made a deal to

use Bitcoin to make banking more effective and user-friendly. If they get it right, many millions of customers will use Bitcoin without even knowing it. We want everything done yesterday, and

Bitcoin is not a technology to be rushed... it will find it's own way.  Next year, we will be at $800.
