I have never been so bullish on XMR like now.

Look at the reddit community, we have nearly 26k subscribers, 2500 online sometimes. Growing so fast.
Future technological upgrades and research from Monero lab are simply huge: I2P Kovri, Multisig, Lightwallets, RuffCT, maybe Zidechains and pruning
Real world integration with Fluffyponies FFS into market places which will present XMR to millions of users

Gentlemen, Monero is a highly active, undervalued project.
Add the decreasing emission to this and we will see prices around 500 USD not very far from now.

To borrow from a nice post I saved (and updated couple items) from reddit (Thanks JohnAlan):

This are the reasons one would need to be a complete, clueless idiot to not hodl XMR the next years.
As I said 500 USD in more near future and 1000 USD in 1-2 years are realistic.
