I see BTC having (at a minimum) a similar value potential to previous paradigm shifts:
- FB social
- GOOG search
- MSFT, AAPL hardware
Or Banking:
- BAC
- CITI
etc
All these companies start at around $150B in valuation.
Bitcoin has a 99% MONOPOLY in crypto currencies.
There's a good chance for BTC to enter the 150B league in 4-7 years which would result in a Btc/Usd of around $10,000.
Good analogy, however the time frame will probably be shorter. Bitcoin has been growing at a rate of 10x per year, and while this will in all likelihood slow down, even 4-5x per year will put us at 10k in 2-3 years.
