This. Even if we consider beanie babies as a legit form of currency they can be "printed" to infinity. The argument they are both "rare" is like trying to say the USD is rare and will never go past X amount of USD in circulation.

If I told someone in the 20's a coffee would be worth $2 they would laugh in my face and say "never would that be possible I don't even earn that in a week". Yet here we are...

Now a 1/100 oz of gold over the coarse of 100 years realtive to buying a coffee.. take a gander at that Wink

.

Yes the point I was making is that bitcoin, like gold is rare, there is a set amount in existence, and a limited increase each year as a result of mining and gold is a focal point for wealth (see exter's pyramid), the USD certainly isnt, it can be printed by its issuer at will. Bitcoin has the potential to be a sort of digital gold, how long until the goldbug market want in? That lightbulb moment will click for more people over time and voila $1000 bitcoin in 2015.

Its true the trend cant exponentiate forever, but price is a function of adoption. As long as the network is growing and after this consolidation, there is a good deal of upside left I believe

I've locked down my tins of troll food, they eat facts and soil the place with facetious shit
