We are going to see a big surge in price and it will happen in a course of days, remember that last time we went from 600 to 1000 it took less than 15 days, so once it starts pumping and we get in the 800 territory, panic buy will kick in, 800 and 900 will go out quick and we will be sitting at 1000+, some people will panic sell at 1000+, it will correct a little, less than people think, then the people that missed the boat will jump in as soon as it goes below 1000, pushing the price to the next ATH.

You forgot one very important part of your prediction: why?

Did you see something on TV that made you think of this? Or just thought there weren't enough threads made referencing this arbitrary even number of $1000USD?

Yes. $1000 is going to happen. But what happened in the past was a huge surge and right now we're not seeing that. I'm not saying it can't happen, just why do you think it will? I would like to see consistent steady growth IMO rather than a huge surge, crash, then the people that came on board during the surge / crash hate bitcoins now because they lost so much money. You have to remember that people are stupid so if they see the price surging they'll hang on until it crashes back down to a normal value, be pissed about it and never use bitcoins again. A normal rate of adoption would be much much better.

Well it's very easy. Bitcoin is about to get segwit, and with segwit pandora's box is opened, sidechains, confidential transactions, lighting network... everything is possible.

Then add in the fact that countries like China keep making their citizens move their wealth away, and we will see a big surge in price.

Trump is yet to enter office, and I think this stupid hype on markets and dollar will end soon too.

I like your thinking OP, I'm ready for the train to depart. I've been ready for so long my ass is hurting from sitting here waiting.

Choo Choo.

I think sentiment is bullish and positive, but nowhere near manic enough for a surge. It could of course develop fairly rapidly but perhaps it's better that it doesn't.

There doesn't need to be a reason why and Segwit and friends may be months or years away from initiating, if ever.

I agree 1000 is imminent, but it is not coming anytime real soon.

There is still a lot of consolidation going on. Price may touch 800 briefly and than drop back for another month.

Breaking the 1000 will likely cause an epic spike though, I'm all ready for that!

1000$a coin is too much it wont happen if it does we will see another flash crash back to 600

1000+ sounds terrific and I'm very optimistic regarding the price but stil I think it's too soon at the moment to get that high. Maybe somwhere around the begininig of the new year if there will be no some bigger issues or crashes like huge hacker attacks. Anyway have my fingers crossed for this to happen as soon as possible.

I like the idea of hitting a 1000(+) again as well. The only part that I dislike is the price chart after hitting this $1000 mark once again. News, especially wallet and exchange hacks, will hit the price even more once it is above a $1000.

For exchanging BTC itself, $1000 for 1 BTC would be great if it stays around that number. It shouldn't become too expensive.

Dog, I hope you are right.  It's been a hail of a long time since bitcoin hit its ATH, and all of us is patiently awaiting the break-on-through.

It's a-commin'!!  But right now I'll be happy if and when we bust thru $800.  Then we all will see.

100% possible. Stable bitcoin prices around $740 may support this further. Indian markets are already trading $900+ price levels. So, any time these prices may convergences, then panic buy will do all the rest of job.

So, let's buy Bitcoins, enjoy the season to make profit any moment with prices in $1000! A rich Christmas for all BTC investors.

I think it will happen soon too. But when the price reaches to $1000, many people will sell the coins and maybe the price can retreat a bit again. I'm sure the price will reach to $1000, but will stable a bit lower... I hope to have a stable price at $900-$950...

I hope you're right.

Once the price hits $930USD, we'll be at a Canadian dollar ATH.

Assuming a stable USD and/or CAD, which surely is not a given.

I understand the enthusiasm in here, but I am still very sceptical about the price reaching $1k. We still do not have hard facts in our hands, and all the juicy promises are just promises. They may seem close one day and very distant the very next day. The difference is small.
Seeing things a bit more realistically, let's first cross the top of this year and see how we behave there. All the rest, above that, is just pure and wild speculation with little arguments.

25% price increase? Without a strong reason?

Honestly bitcoin don't have force to hit this symbolic number of $1000, will be a lot of panic sells until the price reach this number so it will be a slower process, at least 6 months+, less than this is just utopia.

I don't think so. The last time bitcoin reached $1000, there was no ability to short, so the pump worked. It won't work now. Besides the Fed will be raising interest rates in December. That will strengthen the dollar against all assets including bitcoin. BTC might rise in terms of yuan, but not in terms of dollars.

It's a nice thought, but I'm not sure what you are basing these predictions on.
How many Bitcoin are really being sold in India? The 'financial crisis' was a bit overstated from what I've seen.

No big news, no new services accepting Bitcoin,
maybe Mega will announce something soon but unless we hear some big developments I can't really see how the price will break $800.

Here we go again at the "last time" sequence as a basis.

Remember that past performance can't guarantee future results but can consider as good reference. Events in the past that made bitcoin reached it's ATH will never be happened again. It's a sort of new event that will happen now to reached new ATH.

But you know everyone can speculate as always. If ever you speculation will be correct, Im hoping that the correction price will established at around $900 after some big dump once it reached the line of $1000. But some traders didn't want to buy at consider high price so expect an attempt of manipulation to bring down the price much.

At this point it is going to take major news to thrust BTC into a new ATH. Whether it's Pokemon Go implementing Bitcoins or Zuckerberg coming out and saying he has a Million BTC... only time will tell

It's not the first time you open a similar thread with basically nothing more than an empty bit of speculation. Your example of having gone from $600 to $1000 in a matter of around 2 weeks shows that you aren't aware of the difference between the time we are in today, and how the situation was back in 2013. Right now we're once again sitting around the $750 levels. I think the market will repeat going up and down between $700-$750 without much higher upwards potential than $760-$770 as peak.

I don't see bitcoin getting to $1000 until sometime next year. That's just too high of a gain right now. We have already seen big gains this year.

Bitcoin still struggling to go above $750... I can't see how it will reach $1k within this year.... maybe next

Complains about a thread with empty speculation and in the same post adds his bit of empty speculation.  :D

It's definitely good to see bitcoin keeping stable value. Even at 750$. Would rather have it at 750$ for months than $1000 one week and $500 the next...

I think Zuckerberg telling he has a million BTC will only drop it's price for his ability to crash the market.

Nice assumption/speculation however we may not see same pump of 600 to 1000 in less than 15 days like before as there are more players in bitcoin market right now than before and they will always like to hold bitcoin price lower so that they can keep on buying cheap bitcoins till they slowly pump the price.

We are already near $800 and if we can cross it price may stay at around $800 for few days and another pump may start.

True, segwit is in a nascent stage, so it's too early for it to have any major effect. But the overall sentiment is indeed bullish.

Those are all valid reason for a 1000$+ price rise. The only reason to hold bitcoin is (other than possible price pumps) because i want some of my wealth outside of banking system, outside of a physical form, out of eyes. The only person who knows their existance is me.

Still it is just too easy to break bitcoin's possible price rise. It only takes a ban from a major country and its over.

If China senses a threat from bitcoin, i am pretty sure the Chinese gov will consider banning it. You can say, "oh who gives a crap people will use it anyway" If you think a little bit harder, you will realize that China owns the mining business. If the gov bans bitcoin, all of the miners will be gone. Disaster.

I would not be that fatalistic about that scenario as others would fill in. It's gonna be the iron law of supply and demand in action. Surely, the price would drop, but Bitcoin won't be dead, far from it.

It looks like about $750 will be our stable price for now and i agree with you it's better to have a stable price than unstable but dropped next.
We are optimistic to bitcoin and someday the price will be hits $1000 and maybe higher.

I also prefer a stable price level over a short lasting peak to whatever price level from a holder's point of view, but as a trader I wouldn't mind seeing the price reach $1000 and a sharp fall to the far lower side of that price level. It means profit. But yes, if we do end up reaching the $1000 level, it will be a short lasting party as dumps will prevent the price from settling above that level. By that time it would be a frequent occurrence to see +$100 price swings in a matter of days. I personally don't even think we'll be able to settle above the $700 level for long. My guess is that we'll enter the new year below $700.

you are forgetting at least 10 other factors here which doesn't let bitcoin price go up fast in a pump but instead go up slowly like it has been the last year or so.

the most important one is the absence of mtgox and willybot which was the reason for the last pump and also the fact that mtgox was the biggest exchange with more than (i think) 70-80% of the volume.

the other factor is that people are trading bitcoin and they are expecting rises to dump and buy back at the dip and that always slows rises down.

Been waiting for this ATH for a long long time. Ive been in bitcoin way back 2014 and the highest i reaches was .650 going down. Now i cannot wait for bitcoin to pass the 1000$

I dont think so that the surge  would happen again the same on the previous years of bitcoin especially on year end part. Even we saw the price is increasing and we are on a bullish trend its doesnt still guarantee that we could able to reach $1k in no time.Huge adoption would really be needed to achieve this and there were no more panic selling and buying because bitcoin as of now does have a strong  support and resistance. Breakouts wouldnt possible in a short period of time.

I don't know what provoke that fast jump the last time. But it doesn't mean that it's gonna be repeated 100%. You are very optimistic, my friend. The maximum that I can predict this year is that bitcoin will grow to 800$ and 1000$ will be possible only next year and only in the case that will be no any new hacking attacks to exchangers.

These days the price increase is happening steeply, if this continues price will easily cross $1000. Also every year end price certain percentage of price increase happens. Now this has started even earlier than other years

And it's pretty silly he complains about speculation in a speculation forum. And it was not empty, he gave the reasons: segwit + geopolitical situation shaky = price can explode anytime soon. You think the price will remain at at the low 700 range juggling around until you wake up a random day and it's at 953.

FTFY to show how ridiculous that statement is.

I prefere bitcoin to raise slow and steady instead of exploding.
Sudden spikes in price only provoke a sudden drop afterwards.
I think it would be enough if bitcoin reaches 1000$ by the end of 2017.

It is but I think that it has a good future and that it will still reach this amount this year it just need some weeks to do this in my eyes.

I do not think we will get this price right now I think that it will be at the next year although that is also already close right now of course.

Sure nobody expect it to happen soon.At least not the majorityof users.Most of see it realistic and will have the patience to wait until it finally happens.
And furthermore we are still away more than 250USD from that range.This is a lot imo and we are not that close as some always say or think!

we was already discuss similar thread such as this when facing next halving even some people says the price will went to $1000 rapidly after halvng but that doesn't happening and also compare the previous situations is not good for predict the price movement and i don't think $1000 will be new ATH on 2016 and even for the beginning of 2017 probably the price will stay on $800 below so OP had just make pure of speculations here

If we don't reach the top of this year before going down we will paint a double top formation with lower second top on the charts. That will look technically very ugly.
I am not even saying about the possibility of reaching $1k price. Now it seems the steam is over and as there are no hard facts to support this high price, we should correct soon.
I was anyway surprised how good and long we stay above $750.

I agree that the price should increase in natural way and  it maybe true that Segwit and other  update will have a delay in implementation, the hype is already knocking at the doorstep.  And we all know people who want to take profit know how to make use or maximize the use of this kind of event.  If this happen, maybe the next thing we  know bitcoin had already passed its ATH.

Not this year.

It can maybe reach this amount but we still have to see this, lets hope it will, I have some good hope on it but you never know it of course.
I think that its possible with some luck.

well, wishful thinking is one thing, the reality is the other. currently there are no fundamental reasons to support higher valuation of Bitcoin.
A pump may bring the price a bit higher than we are right now, but looking back to the halving pump, we hardly exceeded $800. I don't see why this time should be different (better).

I do not think its anytime now, most likely it will be near that number but I do not think we will reach the amount of 1000 dollar very soon.

Hoping that the big surge in price will comming this december nor in next year hoping so that the start of pumping will be on december or by the end of november so some people are going to sell there bitcoin at the price of 1000+ and if you are going to trade then you can make some good profit too.

I wish the day will come when bitcoin come at $1000, because when i started work with bitcoin so in that time bitcoin was in a low price, but still i use it even i didn't have enough information about bitcoin. Now i really thank to God that i know about the bitcoin. But about the OP, i don't think that in this year bitcoin would be come at $1000 price, it is really hard for bitcoin but may be bitcoin will come at $800 in the month of December.

only until in end year or 20 december 2016 bitcoin price potential can up until reach 1000 dollar
after 20 december bitcoin price can down trend until in end month january 2017

There isn't any real incentive to go higher from the $750 levels, where I am strongly believing in a serious correction that is heading towards us any time this year. People dreaming about $1000 to happen this year will get smacked in their face real hard.


I think it's just being kept at current levels by whale traders to get rid of a large part of their stash before they make the price tank real hard. After that they buy back at ~$600. It's a game that they play very well.


Only a few words, but these words make more sense than all other dreamers here thinking the price will reach the $1000 level this year.

I also see that the current levels look toppish and the correction should be imminent.
I don't mind being wrong, but usually it is not the majority who is right on the markets. And my impression is, that currently we are overly bullish in here.

Well just have a faith for bitcoin upper thrend for now its surely well go for the speculated amount but we cannot assure on what year, month and day will it occur,  but i cannot really say that this current price well be his toppest price since the adoption still up and price plays on the good level so expect we can see more top in this incoming days maybe the time for that is not for now but let see what will happen on december.

it could be happen if many people is making a buy bitcoin so in the market the stock of bitcoin is reduce and need to supply from the big player. but i think its not happen in the end of 2016, maybe in the middle of 2017.

basically what you are saying is have faith, it will grow for sure.
It doesn't work that way, sorry. Wishful thinking is one thing, the other thing is what is on the charts.
And that doesn't look good. Point.
 

That was a different time my friend. So thinking that the same thing will happen now is a big mistake if you are trading. If you remember the story on why it really went up and above $1000, it was because someone at MtGox had set up a bot that was trading with money it did not have. All those trades were just empty numbers in the exchange. Do you also remember what happened next after that? It created a bubble and it had to pop given enough time.

Theres no really need to have faith because it will surely rise up on the future. Reaching 1k price is possible though but not the same on the previous years which it went up on that price and sudden dumps and for now its not like the case  because bitcoins price do have a good support and resistance we cant see anything like what happen before. It may rise but not in a forced or hard way.It will be gradually.

We have support? Based on what, if I may ask? In last six month (i.e., after announcing Segwit) nothing new fundamentally important has been put on the development side. That means that all the support we have right now, is similar to the one at the halving pump. I will remind you, we even reached $800 to go down $500 shortly after. I wouldn't be very surprised if the story repeats soon, as the correction is due.

500 would be a great buy in for a lot of people who missed it the last time, if 500 is visited again it wont be for long..... But realistically 600 is probably gone  too....

$5xx handle is not very unlikely. It is about 20% down from where we are now. That wouldn't be something unusual to see correction of that kind for Bitcoin.
It looks to me that a correction is due, and the corrections of Bitcoin tend to be at least 15-20%, if we look at the past charts.

Bitcoin will be at the big surge this comming 2017 i read lot's of article as long as there are bitcoin im going to hold them while im earning from trading website, Yes there are start pumping the bitcoin and if they are panicing those traders there are starting to sell and buy there coins to make profit.

You are right Jay, we are heading towards the price we all have been waiting for.
Many will get a chance to get out with ROI for investments made at $1000 they made before, and others will take advantage trading the swings of markets.

I'm of the same opinion as the @Nahl, @uki and @1Referee









They:  @Nahl, @uki and @1Referee. made very realistic comments


Most people are relying on faith, which in my opinion is something they should not do

But when the faith is coming with all reasons why not they are relying on that. No one will hope that litecoin will hit $1000 at any time soon. But, they do see that with bitcoin because of its potential and its demand. India markets are already trading above $1000 due to their recent crisis so why not all other markets too ?

Faith might be called as speculation, and that's what bitcoin is based upon.
So, if relying on faith is not correct according to you, then 1000 USD would not have been possible before.

You are right. But even within the speculation, we can distinguish between bets that are relatively safe, and these that are completely wild, not based on any (reasonable) arguments.
I can write, for example, that the price of Bitcoin will be 3000 USD next. I'd love that prediction to come true (and I guess everybody around in here), but I know that this practically impossible.
I have a lot of evidence around that makes me think that the price won't rise to $3000 next year.

Never say never in bitcoinland  8)
Mass adoption hasn't even kicked in yet so
The only users are STILL mainly  crypto geeks...

Prices at these levels are already good enough year end prices. If I were to choose, I'd rather that the price stay this way for a while and then just make another run at $800 early next year. We have already seen the price try to break the $800 resistance too soon, only to plummet near $500 levels. A steady albeit slow rise would be more ideal for me.

We can't judge that what happened last year would happen this year as it's already proven, last time bitcoin need less than 15 days and now we've been waiting for a month and it seems not to happen in this year to reach $1000. Most probably we could see the price rises to $800 by the end of the year.

The 1000 USD before was mere manipulation, and see what it got the investors at that price to.  They are yet to get a ROI,  I am not saying 1000 USD is not achievable, but I think it is not yet this year.  I can see Bitcoin closing at 750 - 850  range this year , probably some set back at 700.  If bad press kicks in we can see sub 600 USD or way less. 

I have seen some posts from other members that the price of bitcoin has crossed thousand dollars in some exchanges in india and i am not sure about that and that is the case is it possible for everyone to trade with those exchanges,since i tried to register in one exchange but they are asking all my personal details to get verified

I believe it was Nigeria where the price of Bitcoin has peaked over the $1000 level, but it's basically the same story as what is happening in India. Lack of supply makes people there jump into Bitcoin at whatever price just to have some coins. Just look at what will happen as soon as the market there starts maturing. Prices will come down significantly till the level that they somewhat match the rates of western exchanges.


Nowadays exchanges will force you to sign up with your personal details in order to make use of that exchange. Make sure you stick to well established exchanges that have been building up a decent reputation, instead of sending over your personal details to a less known/trusted exchange. You never know what will happen with your personal information.

Bottom line is this, we need to be satisfied with current price, even thou we wish more its in our human nature, price is very good as it is. We need to break 800 then 900 and eventually we will get to 1000 $ and more. I thought months ago that we can reach 1000 but how year is coming to an end I see how half-cocked I was. 1000 $ sounds great, but holding that high price is better then just touching it, we all agree about it, and slowly and steady rise can be better for achieving that goal.

I think it's impossible for reaching 1000 value except bitcoin reach another halving on 2019
As we know bitcoin become grower but there are more problem occur from their backend so they need some time to recover their popularity

You have to be patient, btc is a child

Yes there are big chance that bitcoin will hit the price of $1000 dollar in this comming year or in this comming new year bitcoin price already broke up the $740 price when this is not stable in this there are chance that bitcoin will be decrease it self but increase that fast. Hoping that there are spike happen.

this is good I haven't hear this one before
for now we won't see it maybe in q1 of 2017

early month in 2017 bitcoin trend can back down
if you want buy bitcoin in 2017 you must waint until bitcoin price reach in support price
if bitcoin reach support price buy and hold

Lets hope on that, I have some faith in that but I hope this will also really happen because it would be good for my profit.

how much you hold bitcoin
if bitcoin price up until reach 1000 dollar/bitcoin, you can take profit 250dollar if hold 1bitcoin
and you want significant profit you must minimum hold is 4bitcoin, under 4 bitcoin is still few profit

As per the OP calculation BTC price of $1k has touched in localbitcoins exchange where the price last week was above $1k + but in the main exchanges it was trading in $730 range only

Taking back my statement, the resistance is too high.
I think $1000 (if it'll ever happen) will happen in 2018 most early.

2018 is a long time away. One year is more than enough time to break this resistance.
The resistance is at $780 levels right now, Once we break that, $1000 will be attained very quickly.

That's right, bitcoin get closed to 800$, but it's just few days remain to the end of the year. So the maximum that we can expect is that bitcoin will be 800+ $ in the final of this year.

It would be nice to reach this amount but I do not think we will reach it, lets hope on it but I think it will be around January.

lol if we break 780 we reach 1k dream on boy plenty of ressistance @ 800-850-900-950 stop this nonsense

The possibility getting the price of 1000$ this year is quite to  low.  Bitcoin is struggling to break that 800$ barrier which is to hard to break,even the last time that we see the price went to this current price right now. If bitcoin breaks 800 ,1000$ can be achieve at once.

I guess we will not going to wait 2018 to reach that $1000, because so far we are almost near to it and remember we
are just in 2016, 2017 is still there to increase its value.

$1000 will also happen some day but the important thing that i wish happens is that it happens for real not as a pump with fake orders and fake volume. and good news is that so far bitcoin has seemingly had real adoption growth which lead to the current price and it continues still to increase the price.

We're on early December now and looks like the price has settled down at $760 but keep fluctuate due to people who sell their coins if the price has a little increases, I don't see the point of it (little profits or instant profits I guess). Why we don't wait and be patient for bitcoin price continue to increasing and see what the result by the end of the year, but I don't think the price will reach $1000 instead of around $800.

People have different forms of trading. If you look at Chinese exchanges with zero fees, then it is perfectly suitable for ultra fast traders benefiting from even the slightest price change. If you trade with 3BTC and you sell these coins at $3 profit each, then it will be $9 which is peanuts. But if you do that with at least 500BTC, and then several times a day, then do the math. It will make you thousands of dollars every day. Doesn't sound all that bad, right? If you do that 100-150 days per year, or even a full year, then you'll be a very happy person where you can quit your day job as this will be your main source of income.

I am interested to hear opinions if there is some consensus on scaling. It seems to me that point is a large factor that is holding back both the adoption rate and pulling back the reigns on price appreciation.

I do not think that you can say that because the bitcoin is simply unpredictable so we should be patient and see what will happen.

I believe this time $1000 levels will happen in a stable manner but $2000 or higher price levels may happen through a pump only. Because once bitcoin reaches new high price levels, people will start buying it so it is natural it is getting pumped. But as long as new people are coming in and investing we need not to worry about this pumps.

This time around the $800 might be broken, finally, not as quickly as the last attempt. This one is a steady rise which started from the mid $600 levels. But I agree with you that $1000 is a bit of stretch in the nearest possible time, say by the end of the year.

Everyone here is hoping for that to happen, especially those who are in business,
and investment - the value of bitcoin is so worthy even just a small amount increase.

LETS HOPE TOGETHER

price of $ 1,000 could happen at any time since the first. nothing is certain in bitcoin, prices could go up and down in large numbers within one day. That's the reason bitcoin into something interesting. I always believe that. so, I always carry some bitcoin to sell it when it happens. but, I hope that the price of $ 1,000 will be achieved in the next year

I wish the day will come very soon, when bitcoin come cross $1000, Because in my bitcoin career, i never see the bitcoin come at $1000 in a huge price, That's why i am very greedy, also i hold my bitcoins, and many time i am panic when bitcoin's price suddenly down, But now i mustily hold my bitcoins till the end, when bitcoin would be come at $1000. 

The price of bitcoin is quite stable after a increase towards $775. Now its found to be in a dilemma to decrease or increase. As Christmas and New year is just away from countable days everyone hopes for an increase which might take the price above $1000.

1000 dollar will be reached but I do not think that it will reached anytime soon most likely it will be hit in the first q of 2017!

LOL better start to wonder what will happen if the prophecies of $1000 in December don't come true.
Last time, and all the times before, we went through such a failed mass delusion prophevy we had a significant crash.

I would say a crash between now and January next year is pretty much guaranteed as all of your 'to the moon' predictions, again, didn't come true.

I'm detecting a pattern of failed 'to the moon' predictions here.

Time to wake up sheeple!

i am not yet see the price at $1000 too and i really hope that i can see that price soon like you wanted. but it would not be happen until the next year and the price is around under that price.



really? so the pattern show to you that there are only down for the price? can you show to us about this? because i am really curious is its true and i don't want to see a crash from now on.

Nope this will not happen anytime now, we still have to wait on it and I do not think it will happen in this year anymore, it will most likely happen in the beginning of the next year.

Yeah sorry but people have been saying 'soon, no really, this time it will be really soon' for years now.
It's like Christians that have been saying Jesus will return soon for 2000 years now. Gosh another similarity to religion, considering bitcoin is sort of a religion full of blind and ignorant followers that's not so surprising.

You know what the great thing is here? It doesn't have to happen. :) And if it doesn't happen, no one (beside noobs) will get disappointed as we are sitting at more than decent price levels right now. People hoping for $1000 to happen this year are either living in a fantasy world, or they think we can reach the $1000 level as easily as was the case in 2013.


Not many times I can find points where I agree with you, but this is definitely one of the very few. I am also expecting a decent correction to happen any time soon. I go for sub $700 to happen before the end of January.

Hah I like this attitude of some people in bitcoinland. 25% increase not happening any time soon for them means 1 month. In most other markets such  a returns on an investitions are considered soon within a year. We will test ath someday that for sure, but I cant say when.

Price now suggest rise. but noone knows.

This is true i dont know why some people always said that it may rise on this year on which we could able to see the percentage of price increase per month and if we see on that case we could really say its not possible to reach $1k price on this year but possible on next years.

more it will happen during q1 of next year most likely to be like that
don't expect to rise much by this year end over 800 seems achievable by current charts

800 could be broken within the hour
bitfinex was 779 a few hours ago
support/demand is only getting stronger

Well, I can say we broke $750 by far now. Let's see what comes next.

I don't believe we will have again those pumps of 20% or more daily, the current situation doesnt allows that aymore, because those pumps were made by hackers or shady exchanges, but a steady uptrend is totally agreed.

We'll see $1000 before the new year!

January 2017 bitcoin will be at 800$ for sure. But getting 1000$ this new year ,impossible. Bitcoin will get that price of 1000$  mext year maybe between the month of april to july.

But current trends are so promising, Finlad is almost about to recognize bitcoins and unchanged USA policies with new president are supporting bitcoin to grow as a strong alternative investment. Maybe within first quarter of 2017 we are going to see four digit price levels for bitcoins.

I'm nor so sure about it, maybe that is to quickly. I would like to see 1000$ price but at the moment 800 or 850$ sounds more realistic and at the end of this or begininig of the next year this would probably be the reality. And the circumstances are good for further grow up if something dramatic doesn't happen in the market.

Hard is to cross 800 not just over 1000 but my max price for this year is 850
Price won't go over this for sure

Reaching $1000 was basically impossible to happen all year. It's the people with their ridiculous expectations that keep such speculations flowing into this section. Some even were saying that the price would reach a new ATH guaranteed this yeas. And yes, that's why it's called the speculation section, I get it. But how about lowering the expectations to a point where there are more chances of seeing these predictions become reality? (this is not directly pointed at you, but more to all people with unrealistic preditions)


$800 is a realistic possibility, but even when we are only ~$30 away from reaching that point, it won't come easy. $900 is something that we can focus on in the new year once we crossed the $800 level.

im currently waiting this to happen haha. maybe its not impossible that bitcoin price could actually hit the 1000$ because its price is now being more higher than the other weeks. so ihope so that bitcoin price can get 1000$ before this year ends or maybe nextyear. we just need to encourage more people to invest on bitcoin in order to help bitcoin to reach that price.

Nope 800-850 can be maxfor this year pPrice hit 770 and drop to 755 resistance is high on 770 if this can be cross then next resistance a so on hitting 1000 is for this year unreachable

actually this is a normal occurrence. This is one characteristic of bitcoin. has a movement that can not be predicted. bitcoin will likely move in the price range 700USD - 900USD. I strongly believe in this prediction.

Bitcoin in india are in demand this is the main reason the bitcoin price may be at $1,000 any time since the bitcoin price is not that stable and it increasing and decreasing and Always believe that nothing is impossible with bitcoin lot's of us are in bitcoin we trust hold till the price is right and then sell.

I know for a fact that India is a consumer country and they will purchase anything and everything and i do think that they are biggest consumers when it comes to gold too :) what made you think that India is suddenly having a bitcoin demand or is it because of any crises .China helped to reach near $1000 mark and let India help in breaking the $1000 mark.Biggest populated countries and sure they can make a difference in the price.

The year end forecast remains at $800 per bitcoin but the rate as of this moment fluctuates at $767 per bitcoin. No one is sure if the rate will advance in the next few remaining weeks of 2016 to reach the forecasted level of $800. The weakening chinese currency or the brexit might helps the upward swing of the bitcoin price.

Your prediction truly count but we cannot take the true fsct that bitcoin has huge possibilities that the price will go higher than 1000$ in near future, theirs history stating that it truly reach for that price thats why we can rely unto that, and thats why i can say that it surely be happen again at this point, people should stick to their belief so that we can see more good result from bitcoins miracle :)

We should not fully rely on miracle since this thing will surely happen since the  adoption of bitcoin is happening and growing further more thats why we could really expect that i would reach that price anytime soon specially when there are lots of companies and people would already engage into bitcoin but i dont think that i would rise up its price as of these days.

Seems like OP's prediction was wrong. It's already been a couple of weeks. What is more likely is a spike to $900 somewhere around Christmas, which I hope all of us are looking forwards to.

But I bet we'll see upwards of $1500 by next year. It'll be great.

Well, one thing I know, that bitcoin prices could reach $ 1,000 anytime in 2017. I feel that it will not happen this year, because only a few weeks left until the end of the year. Well, I also feel that the highest price this year may be about $ 900. but, I am quite sure, when that happens, the price of bitcoin will not be stable. people will re-sell their bitcoin

$900 is too far away at this point. We must be happy if we reach the $800 level this year. For me every price above the $700 level is a welcome gift. If we happen to touch $800 and even a bit higher than that, it'll be a fantastic Christmas bonus for me. But you don't have to worry about the volatility when we reach $900. If the big players want, they will pump it beyond that without any problems. It all depends on what their intentions are.

1000 dollar will be very nice but I think that we should not cheer to early because the fact is nothing is certain these days, in 2017 it should happen but right now I do not have the feeling it will honestly.

$1000 is right around the corner. Im almost willing to bet 0.01 that it will come before the 23rd of December. But I wont bet. Id rather use that 0.01 to go long with at 100x.  ;)

I do not believe its around the corner you cannot say that it will be around the corner due to the fact that we cannot predict the bitcoin simply.

with that attitude you will surely miss the train to 10k when it does come .......... ;)

I agree that 1000/btc is right around the corner. Also agree that when the 800 mark is reached it may open up and swing through 900 in no time.

A lot of news coming out recently is pro bitcoin and I speculate that a Trump presidency will also be good for BTC.

   i think  1000$a coin is too much it wont happen if it does we will see another flash crash back to 600 i agree

ye of little faith ........ :D

I also do not think that it will happen but lets see what is gonna happen, lets hope it will reach it it would be a nice present..

even if the $800 is broken, we are not riding a water-slide so $900 is still a very long way away. nothing is going to change compared to before bitcoin price is rising slowly as it was before and each time there is a rise there are so many who cash out to buy back in the correction and then continue waiting which makes rising harder.

Even on $800 price we can still be assure if it will broke on that particular price point. $30 move is also a long way since there are lots of traders and investors are just holding and waiting for the exact price to sell off their bitcoin thats why even we broke $800 sliding to 900 will be very difficult because most bitcoin users will be doing trades.

Im starting to think we'll see it before Christmas.

do you actually have a reason for your speculation or did you see it in your magical future ball?

because to be honest i don't see any logical reason for a $230 rise in 15 days! and history also agrees with me.

IT always be a pleasure that bitcoin will be at the price of $1000 again this month or before the years end hoping that bitcoin will totaly hit the speculation price more than what we expect people UPDATE for the bitcoin price $775.5 let's hope and pray for this big leap for this year :)

Yes it is too much for now and it will not happen right now but most likely it will after a few months..

hahaha, maybe he has a magic ball that can see it.
will be very difficult to look at the price of $ 1,000 before Christmas for now. Well, maybe the price of bitcoin will increase, but, the increase is most likely not going to make the price of bitcoin increase with height. Well, most likely to happen is, the price of bitcoin, around $ 800.

Not gonna happen for sure, its a dream for us all but this will not happen, I just do not think it can be done.

bitcoin is fast time can't incraese to 1000 dollar and can't crash and down until reach 600dollar
if down bitcoin price to 700 dollar not under below 700 dollar
if bitcoin price incraese maximum only 900 dollar , but my prediction bitcoin price before christmast can up until 800 dollar
and then can down price

Although inflation is decreasing (new coins each 10 minutes is smaller) there are a lot more coins around now than at the last ATH, so in real terms, although the $ number is smaller, to support the current price despite there being millions more coins now indicates that the real ATH is about now!

Its around the corner. quarterly fut contracts just hit 830. that means the rest of the world is about to catch up and that will start the fire.

However, people will not greedy about altcoins because when you compare the value of the bitcoins with altcoins. Bitcoins in far far better than that. As we expected still we did not see some any good price in the price chart. Hope will see soon.

Obviously. Bitcoin is the gold and all the others will be the weaker ones like silver and bronze and copper.

   Maybe that corner is a new year, now price is 777 dollars, nice price right? And I see its stable for a while, which is a nice thing after this summer where we saw some dump after exchange site crash. I wouldnt say its around the corner, price increased a lot in past months, cause of that its better to chill now then hunt new increase, price cant increase all the time, that is a trap then.
   

I am strongly believing that as well. If you let go of what has happened due to the manipulation done by MtGox, then right now we're on the edge of a new ATH. Same was the case when the price reached $790's back in June before the block halving. I consider the current price to be way more impressive than the price back in 2013 as there are way more coins in circulation compared to back then. Reaching $800 will be a very nice achievement in the psychological meaning of the word. Definitely not because of the profits as it would mean you gained ~$20 which is peanuts.

I'm also waiting for $1000 to come because I've been saving a quite amount of bitcoins so it will be really great but I think that its too soon

maybe bitcoin will reach $1000 in the first months of next year unless something happens to increase the buy rate.

i'm waiting till bitcoin price reach $1000 because im gonna buy many things and goods for my everydaylife and we all know that all of us will have a extra profit from it. just like traders who sells bitcoin they must have a more income because of the price its growing .maybe next year around march - april the bitcoin price will reach $1000 barrier.

you're right its still depends on the market, traders and also investors. the bitcoin price will reach $1000 barrier next year if bitcoin investors will increase. i think the price of the bitcoin depends on how many investors putting their money in bitcoin. im hoping that next year will be good at us and reach $1000 barrier so i can gain more profit when im trading.

Keep believing, just like the song ,there can be miracle when you believe.. but unfortunately we cant go 1000$ by the end of year. Wait for another halving im sure it will definitely go that way.

You are saying it took around 15 days last time till it has risen up to $1000 but I guess it is already more than 15 days and still no signs of even $800. It is different this time. Mining is difficult and winter is not the best time, because the electricity is becoming more expensive. My guess is that it is going to stabilise soon.

its over 800 everywhere.
India
okcoin
local bitcoins
Canada.

There may be differences across individual exchanges. In places like India, there might be higher demand for bitcoins and therefore higher prices. But most websites have an index, which give you a volume-weighted average price of Bitcoin. And that is hovering around $790 now. I don't think we will be below $800 for long.

Nahh 800 is here and 900 for Christmas is coming.

The price of bitcoin is nearing $800 as it fluctuates around $780 and there is only few days left before Christmas. If this uptrend continues, it will pass the $800 level and will be near at $900 before yearend.

buy a bitcoin for your childrens future if you can afford it ,
it will probably pay for a college education and then some by the time they
are old enough ......

The question is not whether you should buy bitcoin, but how much.
Here is how you can find how much:
Total population of the world: 7 billion
Of those, lots are poor, and in not a condition to buy bitcoin. So lets just consider first world population.
Population of rich nations or first world: 800 million or so.
Market capitalization of bitcoin at $780: $12 billion
So, per capita, there are $12 billion / 800 million = $15 worth of bitcoins in the market for each american or rich person of the world.
If you don't have $15 worth of bitcoin, then you are missing out on your share of the virtual currency of the world.
So buy at least $15 worth of bitcoin if you want to be average.
If you want to score big: buy $150. Then you'd have 10x times each rich person in the world.
And so on.

All you need is one bitcoin in 15 years to retire. Thats a promise. Forget all the other math.

This last month of the year 2016 is only a stepping stone for bitcoin to climb even further. If  the test reach 800$ then 900$ could be achieve after a week or before 2017. Could be dec 31 new years eve.bitcoin and the fireworks will go up high.

even me im getting a feeling that it will come sooner. maybe next year hope it could reach that barrier so ican trade more bitcoin. we're on the best part of bitcoin history right now. bitcoin always has a surprises when it comes on christmas day and end of the year just like last year. im happy ive been a user of bitcoin since 2014. :D

Looking to the bitcoin price in different exchanges i see that in the western one it is around ~$790 ofc the lowest one is in btc-e with $775 but in the Chinese exchanges it is $799,x almost $800  :)
Breaking this barrier will have a positive impact and will open the road to the $1k again but this time is gonna be a solid price  ;)

today we know that the price of bitcoin is likely to reach $ 1,000 in 2017, and we do not know when it will actually happen. so, I guess, the theory of 1000+ is anytime now to 2016 have been lost. Well, maybe $ 1,000, will happen anytime in 2017.

 Its around the corner but I also do not think that we will reach it anymore this year, there is not much time too accomplish this and due to that it will simply not happen.

It's anytime but not in the near future due to different condition nowadays and last time bitcoin pumped to $1000 in just several days.
The price of bitcoin need more time to set up the current price with demand of more adopters and buyers, the result is, we need more time to reach that price, I thought about 4-6 months later.

A week ago I would say that 1000+$ sounds like a fairy tale for bitcoin optimists. But today I see that it is close to be truth. Bitcoin grown to 800$ for couple of weeks, so with such temps in a month we will see so expected price of 1000$ per 1 btc ;D

Interesting view! I would go for a whole bitcoin which today is still affordable for most in first world countries.

Just to be on the safe side + monkey brain likes round numbers.

i am sure bitcoin will be reach its price to 1000$ in the year of 2017 because bitcoin price is now increasing very quickly so we can say that 2017 is the best year of bitcoin and i hope that a lot of people will be get a big profit from bitcoin in the next year.

Yeah bitcoin will be 1000+ sooner because bitcoin rising its price too much faster and there is a lot of people hold their bitcoin and i hope people will be get a big profit form bitcoin in the future because bitcoin is very useful and profitable currency in the world .

We're getting close. To the moon... again!  ;D

Yep its not gonna happen, the bitcoin is on its way but its not gonna happen anytime right now we still have to wait on that for a while.

yes, we can suppose that bitcoin can possibly reach the $1000 price value because as we can see the current price is very close to the price that we are aiming . there's a big chances that bitcoin will be more increased in the year of 2017 and i am hoping that it is not the only best year of bitcoin, If bitcoin hits the $800 price before the year end I'll start to hold my coins so I can be ready for the year 2017 .

But I will be always holding my bitcoin even today it will reach $1000 price levels. Because I'm not expecting $1000 as my target price levels but I just want bitcoins to use in my local shops, so it may happen when bitcoin prices reaching $10k or even millions. Yes literally I am already ready for the year 2025.

Not that i think it is going to 1000 but if it did it could and probably would be with a few days.

For now, we can surely predict that the price will reach the 800USD, we are so close to it. For reaching the 1000USD, it will take some time, probably during the year of 2017 the price can reach that level ;)

We don't have control over the price; we don't have to control of the future, but we keep the faith and wait.

I hope not. It is better for the price to rise 5-10% a month.

Maybe not bitcoin will totaly hit 1000$ in this year or before the year ends don't lose hope people bitcoin will increase it self and it will be quickly up and lets start using bitcoin with high price and big profit it is better that bitcoin will totaly hit 1000$ this month :)

Yes we are hoping on that but I do not think that we will hit the amount of 1000 dollar anytime soon just because of the fact that it than still needs 200 dollar and we are almost at the end, I think it will be 2017.

Maybe yes bitcoin now is at $787 Dollars so maybe in the year of 2017 bitcoin will be increasing slowly not that quick if bitcoin will be demand on that year then yes it will quickly increase it always depends on the demand not because people are always trading :)

1000 dollar anytime is way too early in my eyes, better count on the beginning of 2017 that we will reach the 1000 dollar.

i am sure that bitcoin will be 1000$ sooner in the year of 2017 because buying bitcoin for the shopping and many people hold their bitcoin for the future and bitcoin adoption is too much higher nowadays because people know that bitcoin price will be more rise up in 2017.

Yeah hopefully the rise of holiday season will extend until next year and so on. I believe if the price get higher. The btc will become more popular into others and many will get intersted into it.

Comon guys. If we all think it will be 1k by new years eve we might just get it there. Just think real long and hard.

The price is already breaking the $800 barrier right now. I also have no doubt that in the coming weeks reaching the $1000 level is perfectly possible. It's just about being patient and continue to increase and hoard our coins.

By 2017 maybe and somewhere in 2nd quarter if its a slow movement upward with some consideration that it might lightly go down a bit, but if Bitcoin maintains slow upward movement $1,000 USD is possible in the next couple of months. If upward movement is due to demand of Bitcoins for online shopping we may see a slowdown by January or February, but I think this upward trend is not only because of the demand for Bitcoins for online Christmas shopping, there might be more into it.

This has happened on all fronts and looking forward towards $1000 by this time is imminent if not by then
it will by the years end.
I am positive of that. ;)

1000 dollar is nice and it will happen indeed for sure but not right now and also not this year, it will be around the half of 2017 is my prediction right now.

Who gives a shit unless you are holding now? why would someone take the risk now to make a lousy 20% profit? and by risk I mean a bitcoin crash, you know - the kind that has happened many times before.

I think we could break the record of ATH bitcoin price next year. I still believe that the value would soar up high in the future because more users prioritize on saving their coins, they are really waiting for that amount knowing it is increasing rapidly.

With  just 10 days are remaining in this year and only 20%  yet to be covered to have four digits, we are on the way to all time high price levels. The new government in US and the trend among investors looking for alternate investments are supporting bitcoin to boom so hopefully we may experience a new ATH at any time.

The thing with that is the rise would be likely short-lived. Imagine if everyone is doing that, when that time comes everyone would be selling all their stashes, causing it to crash almost immediately.

Just as I predicted here, as soon as we have broken 800, this train is going only up, in fact this is not a train anymore, this is now a rocket. We are sitting at 817 right now in a matter of hours, give it more time and we'll be at 900+. Remember that bitcoin is insanely undervalued because most people are idiots that still don't see the point of owning them. As they discover it and it "clicks" within their brain, it will expand and more and more people will join the winning team.

Im thinking $1000 by the 30th. Whats your prediction.

Your so shortsited you may as well be blind
Who ever buys an 800 btc will hardly sell it for 1k unless he's hungry or broke already
3-7k will probably be where some folks take profit, some may feel that isn't enough either and wait for prices in excess of $10k

Lol that's most likely not going to happen for years though. This isn't the olden times of bitcoins where they just skyrocket to the moon for a few weeks. We're having steady rises so I don't see 3k for at least a year but even then that's probably just being overly bullish.

I hope the $1000 will not be reached too fast. in the middle of next year could be a very good timing.

As quoted bitcoin price is quite increasing gradually, also as mentioned this keep continuing and won't happen in a short time. Even now more users quoted $1000 will be touched soon but in my view price variation won't cross higher than $850-$900 by the falling year.

If to take a look on those fast temps with which bitcoin riced to 800+$ I am sure that the point of 1000 & is not so far. But in such case there is a danger that many people will cash out their money to not skip that chance and in such case bitcoin may fall a little.

Yeah, we already pass the wall of $800 and the price still on rises.
I recommend to every holders to keep on track, we're on waiting room to get $1000 soon, we might reach it in the beginning of next year.
Well, I won't sell any coin, don't build any doubt in your mind to create fear of price drop back.
Bitcoin has proven itself for 7 years and become the greatest digital currency, continue to rise even there are a lot of problems, isn't it?

I'm willing to take the risk lol, i know someday bitcoin will be above $1000. what if you sell now and tomorrow you see bitcoin price above $1000?

1000 dollar is possible and I think it can go real fast as we can see right now its around the 820 dollar what is just so nice..

...and speculators.
Yes, I am also waiting for the mass adoption to break out, to finally have some fundamentals behind the price valuation.
Otherwise we are just jumping from one pump to the other, and yes, many things are possible, but that is not the long-term way.

I totally agree. Such a sudden rise in the price of bitcoin is not necessarily a good sign, rather it is a sign that bitcoin is still far from the necessary stability (low volatility) and speculators still have a great influence on its price.

at current speed, I believe it would go above $1000 by next year....

I also think that it will happen next year, its just a feeling I have and I think its right now not even more possible.

That is exactly what I am thinking, I'm like" abort-abort this is going too fast". With this rate if we reach $1000 in next 2 days there will be a massive crash just the following day.

So it is better for the price to stay below $880 in the next few weeks.

When I saw today's price for bitcoin I can say - man, you were right. It's really 1000+ anytime now. Eh now I'm thinking about why I didn't by at least one bitcoin this August when the price dropped to 500?! :'(

It's alright, only few are expecting it to happen. Only those rich with lots of capital to use can do what you say, to buy before and hoard longer. But for us who only own few satoshis, never mind. But I admire those who really foresee what will happen next, I think they are good traders and probably earning big now because of their  knowledge. So, congrats to those who are still holding their coins.

Well, that reminds of ol' days back in 2013, when you woke up to see that the price of Bitcoin added another $50+ during your sleep. My indicators are in the red territory already, let's how long this pace lasts.

As much as I can admit and say that personally didnt expect this rush in price over night, ans i was sure that price wont reach this year 1k, from last night i think i made mistake and that is possible to go over it if this 50$ a day continues.

Something else is bothering me that i dont think is good seem that someone has put on market funds from Ctyptsy over 11k in bitcoin but in that case price would go down not up. Still can figure out it yet and was this info from market chat just another rumor or is it real thing.

It's very close to be happen now. At the end of the year, the price is going crazy. Some traders think this is a pump conditions. But hell no. We can celebrate the price now and keep it strong.

It might take 2 to 3 months. It might take even longer.

you were right mate . that would be the bad side if bitcoin will sudden jump to $1000 in the next few days there will be a possibility that it will cause a big crash on the next day even if it slightly steadied to at least $840 to $870 still there will be some chances that many people will sell their coin and that's how their greediness works .

I think $1000 are perfectly possible in the next weeks. But I'm pretty sure that it will be in early 2017 when we'll hit this mark.

That might happen:
- A consolidation in the 850-900 range for a few days (maybe until Christmas).
- a new fast rally up to the 970-995 range (last week of 2016)
- then a flash crash because of profit taking, down to $900-930. (January 2017)

If the price can cosolidate in this range (above $900) then $1000 will be surpassed surely. The next resistance would be the ATH at ~1200 USD. The rally may stop there, or go above. A limiting factor could be the full blocks which will scare some newbies (and could even give some bad press a la "Bitcoin does not scale", too) if SegWit is not enabled fast.

Will it hit $1000 soon? Yes. Probably soon but that will be short lived. I expect resistance to double as it is now once it touches $950. Although everything i just said denies my theory about how gradual price changes became comparing to the olden days of Bitcoin there is still lot of say say factors that influence sudden price change - we're still witnessing its infancy, but not for long. One thing is for certain: as time goes by, we will see less and less volatility and we'll see a slow yet positive trend - long term speaking, of course. I dare to build my trading strategy around that assumption.

I am still not convinced by the current price, is it really could reach $ 1,000 or within 1 week. Well, I was really amazed by bitcoin prices are rising very quickly. Initially, I felt that it was very difficult, or even impossible bitcoin prices going up to $ 1,000 in a short time. but, seeing a rise bitcoin is happening now, makes me believe that it could be possible.

Lets hope it will reach this amount soon, I think it will be next year but who knows right, I hope it will go to a high amount.

I think that he is right about that, there will most likely happen a dump soon or later with such prices, I have no doubts..

When OP started this thread in November, I was not so sure about this, but it all seems to indicate that, effectively, the $1000 barrier is just around the corner.

This does not seem to me something necessarily good because such high volatility is against the acceptance of bitcoin as a regular currency, but let's see what speculators bring us.

this is actually getting scary a little bit for me.
don't get me wrong i love to see bitcoin price rise as much as anybody else holding bitcoin but at the same time i wouldn't want the price to go up in a bubble which will surely burst. and so far i can see the $800 even $850 rise but touching the $900 and then $1000 this soon is going to be a mini bubble.

wow, its $910.... I'm starting to believe that we could get to $1k before the year ends....

I'm starting to think it could be $1k before I wake up tomorrow. I was here in 2013. I remember this. And it feels good to have hodled all that time....waiting....waiting

So let's wait how far the price will go down after this bubble popped out. It's really good to see bitcoin price like this but it must be reached with a good foundation. If ever a dump now will happen, Im expecting around $800-$850 as standing point. If that will happen, then we can expect the road to $1000+ in the next price rally then I will assumed it will established standing point to $900-$950.

After all, our sayings here is just a speculation. Just because we are into hype we can create our own analyzation because of some basis we are considering.

By the looks of things we could see 1k by tomorrow.

Nope but maybe the day after Christmas as we can see that it's only couple of days since we reach 800 USD and now we already reach the 900, expecting from this month it will reach 1k after the year ends.

With  the price movement, it is possible, but I doubt if it is going to be steady there,  think it will step there and go back a little and re try it on New Year. I hope that no one will make a noise in the bitcoin world just like the other year.

But I am still wondering, is this a true increase or just another artificial price surge?  :)

Bitcoin price now is at $900 dollars so anytime from now or in christmas day bitcoin will be at $1000 this is just speculation but lets hope everyone that this will happen if this happen everyone will have a good christmas gift for those who don't had bitcoin but now and then hold it for 2 days :)

Price of bitcoin is almost there i know that bitcoin will make it happen this is my first time that bitcoin is totaly high i want to hold my bitcoin until next year. I read too much articles about bitcoin and those who started it indian people now are using bitcoin and they are the reason of bitcoin increasing aso chinese people. It will happen just wait for the right time always.

Things getting exciting by the end of the year :)
The bitcoin price made a huge jump within few days from $700 to $900 and for the moment it is between $914-918 in the exchanges except for the Chinese which is between $941-943
$1k getting closer boys  ;)

He probably thinks we're very close because of how fast we got to above $900.  When stocks rise this high, people go absolutely ape shit with the bullish predictions--and there isn't much rationale behind it except past price action.  If something has gone up really far, really fast, you'd kinda expect it to keep doing so, right?  Well, maybe.  It's momentum, and there are probably a bunch of idiots piling into the bitcoin market who have no idea what it's all about.  That frightens me a bit, but there's no way of telling why the price is as high as it is.

Not complaining about this, though.  I'm all for hitting $1000.

i still think it is too soon to start singing $1000+ price now even though price has been rising with a good rate and a good buy support but i think we are going to finish this year with $900+ range and if lucky it stays in this price range in next year and doesn't go down.

if theres any drop we can just use it to buy MOAR bitcoins ....... ;D

Current price movement is very fast bitcoin. even the last few days the price of bitcoin as uncontrollable. bitcoin continue to rise and beat some predictions about the price of bitcoin.

With the current price of bitcoin, it need only a few days or before new year's day to reach the $1K if the bullrun continues. I'm not sure if this a real or artificially made increase but report says the demand is boosted by rising geopolitical risk like weakening yuan, the killing of Russian ambassador and  and the attack on Berlin market.

I am thinking that way too now, since I realized that if the bitcoin value reaches $1000 for this coming days for sure this will make a massive crash, almost will make some withdrawal if it will happen, which is everyone is waiting for.

I didn't thought 2-3 weeks ago that price would be so high in 3 days. Now it's absolutaly possible if bitcoin's price will reach 1000 anytime but I read here, don't know if it's truth or not but another 1 billion would be added in bitcoin to the market cap of Bitcoin yesterday to stop bitcoin's price rise. It's very unpredictionable currency.

With the respect to last 2 to 4 day's action, I am also very much confident that bitcoin prices will be testing $1000 price levels before this new year.

Unfortunately many traders are so quick to book their profits and they are not ready to wait for some more days to have four digit price levels for bitcoin. Yes, I am very much eager to see four digit prices for bitcoin again.

When it breaks 1000  people will get excited again and likely we will see a new ATH....  ;D

This is GENTLEMEN!

Same here, I want to see a four digit Bitcoin, but it seems bull were exhausted of the intense action this last 4 days and had rest today, making bitcoin price to fall under $900.  Is this kind of correction? Or just a dip and another part of whales manipulation to get another cheap Bitcoins before it rise again?  Price now is really in up and down in a fast pace. 

don't worry everything will be fine next few days will be recovering from Xmas fall in price
soon we will be in 4 digits after very long time don't we all want that

Yes, you are absolutely right, if it will breaks 1000$ it automatically means big booom and people will be excisted with this fact, also traders will get better profit and in result we also will receive that many medias and news websites at least will make one reportage of it, which also automatically means that bitcoin will be more known for people and new investors and traders will come.

The resistances presented in this rally keep getting beaten, I can't get enough of how good bitcoin performs. Watch the chart and you will see a healthy lateral bull run. I feel bad for all the idiots that have been selling all of their coins for the past 2 years in all those dips when it was obvious the big picture presented a bull run that will reach a new ATH. All those dips were is just great excellent buying opportunities.

Yeah, not only that, the sellers just arrent there. Who's going to sell in a bullrun that might last to $5000.

Not me.

The bitcoin price going crazy especially in the Chinese exchanges, it is now between $990-993 vs $964-969 in the western exchanges
If it will continue like this $1000 will be reached before 2017  ;)

Dam right we aew very  close to hit 4 digits hope we are there tomorrow  and that we can all enjoy  new year with price we all hopped  after long time

Its so close now but whats taking it so long. Everyone knows 1000 is coming so why not get the fomo started and start the buying.

We'll be at 1000 this year if not in the next month- it's pretty much inevitable at this point. Not going to buy yet but I'll see if prices go any lower and I'll start buying up on Bitcoin. Exciting times ahead if nothing too bad happens in the Bitcoin world.

995.66 on coinbase  :D

isn't 1000 too much? I guess many people will be selling on 1000

Any second now!

We have only 2 days 9 hours and 15 minutes to go to 2017. I am thinking the same too that bitcoin price will be hit 1000 dollars by the end of this year however i'm worried about the price after hit 1000 dollars cause i know that many people will sell their coin at that time ( including myself ).
So what do you think ? is the price will increase or decrease??
well i can't predict the future acurately!!

Right, that could happen by the end of the day  ;)

Lets guess what will most likely happen, bitcoin reaches $1000 today or tomorrow at most, stays that way for maybe few hours and people start the panic selling and bitcoin suffers a major crash like it has several times in past after a huge spike.

as of now, the is almost $980 if I am not mistaken and it appears to be very possible that bitcoin will hit $1000 anytime or any day . but I don't know if it's getting more higher but you are right if it goes around $1000-$1200 there will be a correction for sure and maybe the price will go back to $900+ and will be barely stable .

1000$ is not too much for bitcoin. I believe that it will show to us much higher price.
Now on the YoBit exchanger that I use for cashing out my coins there is the price 1030$, so this thread's topic "1000+ in any time now" already came true. Honestly I didn't  expect  bitcoin will hit this point before the new year.

Im starting to notice it struggle. You don't see that?

i would honestly expect a struggle after rising 5% a day for some consequetive  days
a  lot of the banks are closed until 4th of january so people have no way to
get more money onto exchanges to take us to the next tier up

also bear in mind people dont get paid 7 days a week either so some are simply exhausted their
funds and i think we need to relax until about the 7-8th january to pull any higher than this unless
some money comes in unexpectedly from abroad

in fact it can happen anytime, even when there is an investor who invested his money into bitcoin, maybe it will make bitcoin prices explode, and arrive at the price of $ 1,000. I am sure, many bitcoin users are waiting for a hero like them to move prices to be higher bitcoin.

It is good that it did not continue like that and the price is still below $1000. I expect it to be $1000 in first quarter.

This state the reason why bitcoin still sits below $1000.  It seems the bulls available for action in the trading platform is not enough to break the wall of $1000.  There is always another time :)  Let us wait and see on the next paying day or when bank open to operate.


I agree, i think it is a good thing that Bitcoin did not reach $1000 before the end of the year.  Excitement of people on reaching $1000 will be carried over this year (its January 1 here already)and actually a good way to start a year.  2017 starts with Bullish Bitcoin :)

It is really difficult to exactly predict the exact time to cross the thousand hurdle because the price jumped as usual during the Christmas and holiday season and it might settle down when people starts selling of the coins after new year ,so i do expect that we should wait for some more time to see the three figures .

Boom, right on time, 1th of January 2017, 1000 dollars across all the exchanges. We've hit 1005 in Bitstamp. I think the all time high is on sight and we are going to destroy it very soon. I can't understand how people are exposing their wealth by trying to short. This bull market is going to last for months until a major correction happens. It's not worth it getting burned along the way.

We have crossed $1000 as expected by this year's start. Lets hope this to continue to increase and reach a value closer to $1100. If so in a short we can get a sustained price around $1000 for our better profiting.

It would be best if it stabilizes around $1000 now. That would be best to make it mainstream.
A big correction is coming up though.

Until now the bitcoin price is promising with around $1020 in the western exchanges and up to $1060 in the Chinese exchanges
If things continue like that we will see $1100 soon?  :)

The price is 1020$ every where today. I would not be surprised if it will fall again tomorrow. Cause with such price there is high tendentious that people will cash out their money and that will make the price to fall.

Glad the price is still over $1000.

Price is stable at the moment  on little over 1000.
This was very  good let keep  it that way.

So what's next now. $1000 again or more moon.

We made it, this is just so nice and profitable, I hope it will rise more and more so we can all make profit, this is already a achievement.

Yes we did it and its nice that we can now really cash it out for some good money, I'm not making some nice amount, its a good start of the year.

Luckily it already has been over this amount, I really think that the bitcoin has a great future and that it can take over the biggest currency's soon or later.

The $1200 will be reached in the next few days.

Now you see bitcoin has been reached at $1090, Imaginary, because i don't think that the day will come very soon. Even i thought, when bitcoin will be come at $1000, can i see it?
But now the time has come, and surprisely, it is out of $1000.
But you are right saying, when bitcoin come cross at $800 to $900, than many people sold their bitcoins. But i feel i am lucky, because i wait till the bitcoin come at $1000, than i sold my bitcoins. But now i have learn the lesson, next time i will be wait. 

The price has just dropped. So Maybe in the next few months.

Kraken
HIGH €1,089.000
LOW €895.200

Almost 200 EURO in a matter of hours. Ah well that's just the way how things are with bitcoin. I do think we find support at 850/ 900 euro in a matter of weeks.

The price just collapsed.

Too badly indeed, the correction took place and the price went around -$150 down
A bubble or a correction we will see...

Too bad it lowered but I think that we can simply go to a higher amount very soon with some patient for it.

It's not that bad at all. It just shows that you should take profits at the time the price has gone up considerably in such a short period of time.

Right now would be an easy way to buy back at prices $100 lower than were you sold at. And all that in less than 12 hours.

I just hope the correction for now has reached it lowest point. It would be sad to see that what we have been building up go down in value even more.

told ya  ;D

whales got even richer again

edit: and still in profit down to 600

10k soon this is just a shake up we are still in bull marker

Nah not gonna happen, it will not happen anytime soon and I think we still have to wait a long time on any very high price increasing.

Are you kidding me, this is never gonna happen anytime soon, we have to wait years to maybe even have a chance on this price.

This one big joke indeed, I fully agree with you because 10000 dollar for one bitcoin is now insane and its right now even crashing so that is already saying enough about the word soon.

It's falling hard now but I expect for this to skyrocket again. Probably if will settle to be stable at $800 and wills start to rise to surpass $1,200. Believe me it will happen this month. I'm putting my money with that prediction.

Yeah you could expect this value due to bitcoin's potential. But you have wait for atleast 10 years for bitcoin to reach 10k dollars. Today bitcoin price lower than 780$. Most of the people worrying due to this price dump and I do not know the when the price will boost back.

Yep they get richer and richer, holding the bitcoin is just very good without any doubts, I really think that its profitable for sure.

10K is not that crazy. BTCs market cap is still tiny, just a little bit of big money would have to move into BTC and price would sky rocket.

Its maybe not crazy but also not very realistic with this price it has right now, we just need patient and wait on what is coming!

Its been 1000 dollar and I think that we can expect the 1000 dollar soon or later with some luck and patience.

Maybe we can indeed reach this price with some patience but I think it will first lower more and it is right now.

Anytime is a big word, it will occur someday indeed again and it can go fast but also very slow that is just how the market can go, its unpredictable.

10k is not gonna happen anytime soon by far it even will take years to accomplish such prices or even to come near such an price.

Are we not to blame ourselves for bitcoin taking the plunge, because whenever the price starts to sky rocket... all we think about is dump all the bitcoins we own in the quickest possible time.
And if we want to see good high prices again we need to start holding and stop panic selling of bitcoins to the so called whales...

Yeah the market now is kinda slow and unpredictable but I do believe that we can see again the price to go up to $1,000 again.


You have the point with that, because most of us wants to get some profit immediately we can't stop those people that do dump all the coins and sells it out while the price is still high.

10 years ? No chance at all. Just one week back when bitcoin prices were trading around $1100+ levels people did say bitcoin will be hitting $2000 price levels within this January month and $10k will be possible before end of 2017. But suddenly things got inverted.

But we have come across these type of scenarios many times in past, hopefully bitcoin will recover so quickly to have $1000+ again very soon, new government in USA and regulations in China will boost bitcoin prices slowly.

The price is already $1100.

I think the price will rise gradually to $1500 to $2000 by the end of the year, more people will buy it.

Now it's clear that they are going to be praying for another sub $1,000 scenario, it's going to be fun since it looks like it's holding strong, and even if it dips under $1,000 we are going to look at a quickly bought dip. In fact, it's going up again as we speak.

I guess this is just a beginning for a new start and from what I feel that bitcoin isn't going to go below 1000$ ever now unless external things happen to it like hacking which can't be controlled. Nonetheless within the end of this year bitcoin will have a solid price of $2500+ for sure.

How can you be so sure of that? Well In my opinion it might stabilize to the price ranges we have now but it is also possible that we will see another sub 1000$ price this year. Price ranges such as these ones attracts hackers to do something like hacking an exchange so we can't say for sure that it will go up more. Also whales tend to dump at big prices such as these to buy lower so it might cause dips if a whale dumps and many others follow.

If the ETF coin is not approved, the price might drop below $1000.

I think the price below $1000 will be a short period.
