I like to dream. Instead of throwing around random numbers let's talk about how much adoption and demand would be required to drive the price from its current $1,200 to $47,000 per coin.
What kind of shifts in behavior and mindset are needed?
How can each of us do something to get us there...small actions now could have huge effects in 12 years. If each of us convinced 10 people to buy some bitcoin and each of those people convinced 10 people to buy some bitcoin, the growth becomes exponential.
I agree, people are just getting some sample story about deflation of Bitcoin then fires up with wild speculation of numbers. Even though Bitcoin is inclined to price increase, we know that it is not easy. There is always resistance upon going up, we should not take this factor out of the equation. and besides 12 years is not that long, remeber it took more than 7 years to get the price of Bitcoin to get this high. So probably it will take longer than 12 years to reach $47k Bitcoin per piece.
