Within a year or two, I think. With the caveat it might also drop to zero.

I think we see 50 sooner than 200 IMO.

This. Won't there be a limited number of bitcoins eventually anyway? Can't see it getting much higher than an absolute max of $1k.

Yes, there is a hard limit of less than 21 million bitcoins (2.1 quadrillion satoshi) created. This limit will be reached somewhere around the year 2130.

Wouldn't such a limit result in an exchange rate significantly higher than $1k? Why would a limit on supply keep the demand from increasing? I don't see the connection.
