So what is the likely outcome of the fallout of Tether and Bitfinex? I'm guessing the price of Bitcoin will fall drastically?

As bitcoin is quite impossible to value via traditional methods it's very hard to say where the price could end up after a tether pop.

I've heard many in the cryptocurrency space throw figures around such as $1,000.

I fear that the crash would be far lower. The argument is that the entire run up is fake therefore a realistic price would be back around $100.

I can see this happening. Sucks for everyone who bought in at $18K.
