Re:Novogratz Halts Hedge Fund, Says Bitcoin May Drop to $8,000 by naveen99 on Saturday December 23, 2017 @01:40PM (#15995535)
> it could also go back to $100

Do some napkin math, this is impossible. The people who hold bitcoin now probably have a combined net worth of over a trillion dollars. They will pump and dump it forever rather than let it go to zero. It's way too much fun to trade alone.

> bitcoin has no mainstream use right now

Maybe not in india yet. Even there, it's only a matter of time. Someone will introduce gbtc to the NSE and BSE, and watch it get bought widely even in india. There is a reason it sells at a 20% premium in india.

That doesn't work.
