I think bitcoin will skyrocket just like john mcafee said conservatively 500,000 dollars per bitcoin. I have also heard of long term estimates of 1.5 to 3 million per coin. This makes sense to me because when I talk about it to my friends and family they dont know what it is or the dont know how to purchase bitcoin. I beleive when a majority of the world realizes that there is a decentralized currency out there the sky is the limit in my humble opinion. I upvoted this post.
