A month ago I would have said 10k was an impossibility in 2014.

Since then we have grown 10 fold.

10k is only about an 8 fold increase from here.

2014 we will see the ETF. We will see hedge funds. We will see the first major retailerS.  

I am starting to think 10k is a real possibility.

Of course, just as real a possibility could be numerous things that put us into a bear market. And a bear market would mean we might experience <50% growth instead of 800% in 2014.

But the social acceptance right now is pretty phenomenal and with companies like Circle.com coming out with their applications soon, its an exciting time.

100k is even possible given the exponential rate of growth that can happen... not saying that it will or won't happen, but such a small portion of the world has access to bitcoin.. there is such a huge market, and one major player making a move could be what does it. i would consider $1 million in 2014 extremely unlikely, but who knows?

After 6x in November, slowing to 2x in December would be a breather. Its true that infrastructure (exchanges, notably) needs badly to be ramped up to accommodate even current interest.  I expect the exponential growth has triggered a similar growth in development, but it will take a few days for them to catch up. Not sure the train is going to wait for them...
     All that means is that by the time the new devs are ready, they will have ready made full market exposure. It hurts to think about. Your mind can only blow so many times, I suspect, so at some point you need to step back and just let it happen. The 'impossible' simply becomes possible. Over, and over again. 
    Hell, I can't even keep up with recalculating my retirement date. Not quite YET seems to be the only constant.

Which way?

Up. It has just built another launchpad onto the stack of used launchpads.

Up, but slowly over the next day or two.

That is how it starts. Approaching mid Sunday to early Monday we will see much sharper increases. IOW, it is the last chance to buy in if you don't want to be left behind (if you sold out of your position). That was my point. We will hit 1300 before there is any decent sell-off. Actually, there will be no sell-off at 1300 but maybe at 1400-1450.

Sorry but that Graph makes me really, really uncomfortable. Or maybe too comfortable so its not a nice feeling

Can you imagine the next one and we don't even know when or if it comes to this again.

You do realize that "the guy" who bought at the previous peak (Gox: $266) is up almost 400% to date, assuming he held and didn't immediately panic sell.

Hint: Patience.  Don't panic sell !    

EDIT: Yes, that graph is a bit misleading, because it only shows end of day prices.  For example, somewhere in there, in the recent run up, Bitcoin crash from like ~$900 to ~$450 (Gox).  It fell a similar 50% and fully recovered on Stamp as well, but that only shows up as a smaller correction in the figure I linked above.
