If bitcoin goes mainstream and this coin gets tens of thousands of dollars i would be quite surprised. I am sitting on a goldmine as we all are then. Think its a bit unrealistic though for unloaded coins with little relevance to fetch that or even sniff that. I could be wrong though.

You are correct; I think when i said 'many' i was more saying '1-3' tens of thousands. Still a huge stretch, but I speak of a scenario where all 'money' gets replaced with cryptocurrency of some form, leading to a huge influx of collectors. If we imagine that a scenario where a few hundred million dollars gets poured into collecting crypto-coins, then its going to be a fact that anything made in 2013/14/15 is going to have notable value, and more so if the coin is well documented with a small mintage and such. There are a relatively small number of pre-2015 coins made, so imagine if alot of money starts fighting over them.
Crypto-currencies are now at almost 55bn market cap. Lets say that eventually increases to a 1 trillion cap, or much more. 100m in the collectible market would not be out of the question. How many coins exist now? I guess you could add it up from my book, but even among 100,000 coins that's $1,000 average per minted coin in collector value.

and the real question is how many coins exist pre 2015?
I support your logic, elianite is making complete sense.

I fail to see the logic though on "current" pricing. I have to pay now the premium that this coin might have (super small chance). If thats the case why dont i see my casascius coins for $100,000 now because thats what i assume the will be later. See where im getting at. Current value is what it is and the pricing now should reflect that. Trust nothing more i would like to see is a jetcoin (sorry i still dont know what that even is) fetching insane money. That would mean all the other coins would be fetching crazy prices too. But for today May 2017 your crazy if you think that is what people should be buying it for.
