a lot of people in this forum hate ETH due to its premined nature, alledged close control, bugs and whatever. How can ETH even survive so long so thus many problems? However, if it indeed lives on, I can see it at $1000 by 2018.
Not only a pre mine issue is very disturbing on investing on ETH but also the security of it. ETH was known for being hacked it's bank and cause a dump and hard fork. But ETH is now stable and lot's of development. 1000$ is sure in next couple of years.
The DAO was hacked. Ethereum itself wasn't.
